'Asking' in the Bible

Then, after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions.

When he heard about Jesus, he sent some Jewish elders asking Him to come and save the life of his slave.

and they blindfolded Him and were asking Him, saying, “Prophesy, who is the one who hit You?”

But they were insistent, with loud voices asking that He be crucified. And their voices began to prevail.

And he released the man they were asking for who had been thrown into prison for insurrection and murder, but he delivered Jesus to their will.
