Then, some of the scribes and Pharisees said, Master, we want to see a
sign from thee. But Jesus answered, An evil and adulterous generation
seeks after a sign. There shall be no sign given except the sign of the
prophet Jonah. Just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the
whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights
in the heart of the earth.
The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment of this generation and shall
condemn it. This is so because they repented at the preaching of Jonah.
Behold, one greater than Jonah is right here. The queen of the south
shall rise up in the judgment of this generation and shall condemn it.
She came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of
Solomon and, behold, one greater than Solomon is right here.
When an unclean spirit has left a man, he wanders through dry places,
seeking rest, and finds none. Then the unclean spirit says, I will
return to the house from which I came. When he comes, he finds it
empty, swept, and garnished. Then he returns with seven other spirits
more wicked than himself. They go back into the man and dwell there.
Then the last state of that man is worse than the first. This is how it
shall be with this wicked generation.
While Jesus continued to talk to the people, His mother and His
brothers stood outside and requested to speak with Him.
