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 comments on Matthew 21:24].
