Matthew 22:41-46 
While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, "What do you think about the Messiah? Whose son is he?" "The son of David," they replied. He said to them, "How is it then that David, speaking by the Spirit, calls him 'Lord'? For he says, "'The Lord said to my Lord: "Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet."' 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. (NIVUK)

Jesus was respected as a rabbi/teacher even though the religious leaders were frightened by His teaching, because it did not support them or their petty power structures. The Pharisees had just asked Jesus a question about the greatest commandment (Matthew 22:34-40). It was then Jesus' turn to question them about who they understood the Messiah to be. By asking, "Whose son is he?", Jesus was forcing them to think about His own personal identity.

“I like the daily challenge to share my faith with someone. I also like the small doses of scripture expanded at a time which allows me to meditate appropriately. Going through one book at a time also helps me study well and catch up if I miss any day’s devotions. ”
