Question

After blindfolding Jesus and striking him, what do the leaders say?

a) "Prophesy, who hit you?"
b) "Speak up and defend yourself!"
c) "You are the Son of God!"
d) "Let him go, he is innocent."

Answer 1

The leaders did not say any of the provided options. The soldiers who mistreated Jesus after blindfolding him asked him to prophesy who hit him.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the account of Jesus' crucifixion found in the Gospel of Luke, the leaders who blindfolded Jesus and struck him did not say any of the options provided. They were actually the soldiers who mistreated him, not the leaders. According to Luke 22:63-65, after blindfolding Jesus, the soldiers struck him and then said, "Prophesy, who hit you?"
