Luke 20:26 But they had no strength to get a grasp on so as to comprehend or to take a firm hold upon so as to control or make use of that which He spoke (or: the effect of the flow of His spoken words) in front of the people – and so they remained silent (kept still), while wondering in amazement, and marvelling on His discerning response.
