Luke 11:29-32
The Sign of Jonah
11:29 As the crowds were increasing, Jesus began to say, “This generation is a wicked generation; it looks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah.
11:30 For just as Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so the Son of Man will be a sign to this generation.
11:31 The queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with the people of this generation and condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon – and now, something greater than Solomon is here!
11:32 The people of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented when Jonah preached to them – and now, something greater than Jonah is here!
Luke 11:50-52
11:50 so that this generation may be held accountable
for the blood of all the prophets that has been shed since the beginning
of the world,
11:51 from the blood of Abel
to the blood of Zechariah,
who was killed
between the altar and the sanctuary.
Yes, I tell you, it will be charged against
this generation.
11:52 Woe to you experts in religious law! You have taken away
the key to knowledge! You did not go in yourselves, and you hindered
those who were going in.”
