'Understand' in the Bible

But they did not understand what he told them.

So he said, "You have been given knowledge about the secrets of the kingdom of God. But to others they are given in parables, so that "they might look but not see, and they might listen but not understand.'"

But they didn't know what this meant. Indeed, the meaning was hidden from them so that they didn't understand it; and they were afraid to ask him about this statement.

But they didn't understand any of this. What he said was hidden from them, and they didn't know what he meant.

"When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then understand that its devastation is approaching.

Then he opened their minds so that they might understand the Scriptures.
