| Matthew 11:2 | *Now when John had heard, in prison, the works of Christ, sending two of his disciples, he said to him: Luke 7:18. | The order of time is not here observed by the evangelist. St. John's deputation to Jesus Christ took place some time before; and the text of Luke 7, gives it soon after the cure of the centurion's servant; hence all that follows, in Matthew 11., is placed by persons who have drawn up evangelical harmonies, immediately after the first 17 verses of Matthew 8.
