For a testimony unto them (eis marturion autois). Not in Matthew. Luk 9:5 has “for a testimony against them” (eis marturion epi autous). The dative autois in Mark is the dative of disadvantage and really carries the same idea as epi in Luke. The dramatic figure of shaking out (ektinaxate, effective aorist imperative, Mark and Matthew), shaking off (apotinassete, present imperative, Luke).
