- Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together.
- One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question:

- If then David calls him 'Lord,' how can he be his son?"
- No one could say a word in reply, and from that day on no one dared to ask him any more questions.
