Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.
So they all jumped in like 'Wait, are you actually the Son of God?' And Jesus was like 'You said it, not me.'
Jesus let them connect the dots themselves, sometimes the truth speaks for itself.

This affirmation by Jesus highlighted his divine identity, fulfilling Old Testament prophecies and provoking his accusers to seek his death under Roman rule.
