Contextual Overview
1 One day Jesus was in the Temple area teaching the people. He was telling them the Good News. The leading priests, teachers of the law, and older Jewish leaders came to talk to Jesus. 2 They said, "Tell us what authority you have to do these things. Who gave you this authority?" 3 Jesus answered, "I will ask you a question too. Tell me: 4 When John baptized people, did his authority come from God or was it only from other people?" 5 The priests, the teachers of the law, and the Jewish leaders all talked about this. They said to each other, "If we answer, ‘John's baptism was from God,' then he will say, ‘Then why did you not believe John?' 6 But if we say that John's baptism was from someone else, the people will stone us to death. They all believe that John was a prophet." 7 So they answered, "We don't know the answer." 8 So Jesus said to them, "Then I will not tell you who gave me the authority to do these things."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it came to pass, that on one of those days,.... According to the account of the Evangelist Mark, it must be the second day, or two days after his public entrance into Jerusalem; for on the evening of the day he made his entry, he went out to Bethany with his disciples; the next morning, as he returned from thence, he cursed the barren fig tree; and when he came to the temple cast out the buyers and sellers; at evening he went out again, either to Bethany, or the Mount of Olives; and the next morning, as he and his disciples returned, the fig tree was observed to be dried up; and when they were come to Jerusalem, as he was walking in the temple, he was attacked by the sanhedrim, and had the following discourse with them:
as he taught the people in the temple, and preached the Gospel; for he taught them by preaching that, and which he did most clearly, faithfully, and publicly, being abundantly anointed and qualified for it, and sent to do it.
The chief priests, and the Scribes, came upon him, with the elders. The whole sanhedrim being purposely convened together, came upon him in a body; and it may be suddenly, and at an unawares, and came open mouthed against him, and attacked him with great warmth and vehemency.
