# General Information In verse 16 the word "you" refers to the seventy people that Jesus was sending to the towns to heal people and preach. # The one who listens to you listens to me "When someone listens to you, it is as if they were listening to me" # the one who rejects you rejects me "when someone rejects you, it is as if they were rejecting me" # the one who rejects me rejects the one who sent me "when someone rejects me, it is as if they were rejecting God, who sent me"
