'Question' in the Bible
The scribes and the Pharisees began to consider and question [the implications of what He had said], saying, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemies [by claiming the rights and prerogatives of God]? Who can forgive sins [that is, remove guilt, nullify sin’s penalty, and assign righteousness] except God alone?”
But Jesus, knowing their [hostile] thoughts, answered them, “Why are you questioning [these things] in your hearts?
Jesus replied, “I will also ask you a question. You tell Me:
and they questioned Him, saying, “Teacher, Moses wrote for us [a law that] if a man’s brother dies, leaving a wife and no children, his brother should marry the wife and raise children for his brother.
And they did not dare to question Him further about anything [because of the wisdom He displayed in His answers].
Now when the centurion saw what had taken place, he began praising and honoring God, saying, “Certainly this Man was innocent.”
