And they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, "What is this? A new teaching? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him."

The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, and testing him.

They kept this saying to themselves, questioning what the "rising from the dead" meant.

And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and scribes questioning them.

Jesus said to them, "I will also ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

And one of the scribes came, and heard them questioning together. Seeing that he had answered them well, asked him, "Which commandment is the greatest of all?"

When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far from the Kingdom of God." No one dared ask him any question after that.
