This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Amazement came (egeneto thambos). Mark has ethambēthēsan.
They spake together one with another (sunelaloun pros allēlous). Imperfect indicative active and the reciprocal pronoun. Mark has simply the infinitive sunzētein (question).
For (hoti). We have here an ambiguous hoti as in Luk 1:45, which can be either the relative “that” or the casual hoti “because” or “for,” as the Revised Version has it. Either makes good sense. Luke adds here dunamei (with power) to Mark’s “authority” (exousian).
And they come out (exerchontai). So Luke where Mark has “and they obey him” (kai upakouousin autōi).
