Mark 11:29

And Jesus answered and said unto them ,.... Being not in the least intimidated by such a body of men:

I will also ask of you one question ; or "one word", or "one thing"; λογος , here answers to the Hebrew word דבר , which signifies both "word" and "thing":

and answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things ; See Gill on Matthew 21:24 .
