The priests and Levites (the elite spiritual police from Jerusalem) came out to question John the Baptist, asking him if he was one of three possible identities. Which did they NOT ask John to confirm?

The priests and Levites questioned John the Baptist and asked him if he was Elijah, the Messiah, or the Prophet. These were all prophecies from the Old Testament they were waiting to come true. King of Kings applies only to Jesus later on in the New Testament, most prominent in Revelation.
