but when he came out, he could not speak to them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple; for he intimated it to them by signs, and continued dumb.

he is like a man who in building a house, digg'd deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: an inundation came, the current beat impetuously upon that house, but could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.

which the Pharisee, who had invited him, observing, he thus argued with himself, if this man were a prophet, he could not but know that the woman, who is so busy with him, is a person of a loose character.

One day the mother of Jesus, and his brethren came to speak with him, but could not get near by reason of the crowd.

and among the rest a woman, who had been troubled with an hemorrhage twelve years, having consum'd her whole fortune upon physicians, who could none of them cure her; she getting behind him,

then the woman finding she could not conceal herself, came trembling, and kneeling down before him, confess'd before all the people, why she had touch'd him, and how she was instantly cured.

while he was speaking, there came a cloud and over-shadowed them, who were seized with fear, at their vanishing in the cloud,

but they did not comprehend that expression: it was as a riddle, which they could not understand, and they were afraid to desire him to explain the meaning of that expression.

Then he said to the people, when you see a cloud rise out of the west, you say, it is just going to rain; and so it happens.

and they could not tell what to reply to it.

but they comprehended nothing of all this: his discourse was a riddle to them, and they could not find out the meaning.

was very desirous to see the person of Jesus, but could not for the crowd, he being of a low stature.

saying to them, go to the village opposite to you: at your entrance there, you will find a colt ty'd, that was never yet back'd: untie it and bring it here.

Accordingly the messengers went, and found the colt, as Jesus had told them.

as they were untying the colt, the owners said, why do you untie the colt?

so they brought it to Jesus. and throwing their garments upon the colt, they mounted Jesus thereon.

but they could not find the means of effecting it; for all the populace were strongly attach'd to his doctrine.

and then shall they see the son of man come on a cloud, with power and great glory.

which however appear'd to them such a delirious tale, they could not give credit to any of them.
