Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself?

John 1:22 — KJV

Theological / Devotional

Who art thou? The question was now general rather than specific (see on vs. 19-21).

An answer. Thus far inquiry had resulted only in negative replies. Now the priests and Levites sought from John a positive declaration.

Them that sent us. That is, the Sanhedrin at Jerusalem (see on v. 19).
