# Why do you ask me about what is good?
2017-08-23 18:23:57 +00:00
Jesus uses this question to encourage the man to think about who has the authority to say what is good. AT: "You ask me about what is good. Apparently you think that I have authority to tell you what is good." or "You ask me about what is good. Apparently you think that I am good and have authority to tell you what is good."
