Mark 9:17. And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit;
We do not know if the scribes gave any answer to Christ’s question; and it does not signify at all. What does always signify is practical, living, earnest prayer. So what the scribes may have said is not recorded, but the prayer of the poor father is: "Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit." If any of you have come here to cavil, we shall take no notice of that; but if there is a soul that has come here to pray, the recording angel will write it down in the eternal book.
