'Asked' in the Bible

So he called together all the chief priests and scribes of the people and [anxiously] asked them where the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed) was to be born.

and asked Him, “Are You the Expected One (the Messiah), or should we look for someone else [who will be the promised One]?”

And Jesus asked them, “How many loaves [of bread] do you have?” They replied, “Seven, and a few small fish.”

Now the Pharisees and Sadducees came up, and testing Jesus [to get something to use against Him], they asked Him to show them a sign from heaven [which would support His divine authority].

But Jesus, aware of this, said, “You men of little faith, why are you discussing among yourselves that you have no bread?

Now when Jesus went into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?”

The disciples asked Him, “Then why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”

Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and asked, “Why could we not drive it out?”

At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”

Then [Salome] the mother of Zebedee’s children [James and John] came up to Jesus with her sons and, kneeling down [in respect], asked a favor of Him.

And He said to her, “What do you wish?” She answered Him, “Command that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine may sit [in positions of honor and authority] one on Your right and one on Your left.”

Jesus stopped and called them, and asked, “What do you want Me to do for you?”

When the disciples saw it, they were astonished and asked, “How is it that the fig tree has withered away all at once?”

Jesus asked them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures:‘The [very] Stone which the builders rejected and threw away,Has become the chief Cornerstone;This is the Lord’s doing,And it is marvelous and wonderful in our eyes’?

But Jesus, aware of their malice, asked, “Why are you testing Me, you hypocrites?

On that day some Sadducees, who say that there is no resurrection [of the dead], came to Him and asked Him a question,

One of them, a lawyer [an expert in Mosaic Law], asked Jesus a question, to test Him:

Now while the Pharisees were [still] gathered together, Jesus asked them a question:

Now as they were eating Jesus took bread, and after blessing it, He broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.”

Now Jesus stood before [Pilate] the governor, and the governor asked Him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” [In affirmation] Jesus said to him, “It is as you say.”

He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus [so that he might bury Him], and Pilate ordered that it be given to him.
