# Connecting Statement:

In Dalmanutha, Jesus refuses to give the Pharisees a sign before he and his disciples get in a boat and leave.

# They sought from him

"They asked him for"

# a sign from heaven

Alternate translation: "a sign from God" or 2) the word "heaven" refers to the sky. Alternate translation: "a sign from the sky"  (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
