'Reasoning' in the Bible

But there were certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,

And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all?

Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.

And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
