The crowds marvelled, saying,
never was anything like this seen in Israel.
Matthew 9:33 (ESV)
The people marvelled at his miraculous actions; and at his authoritative words as he answered the Pharisees (Mk.12:17).
His disciples marvelled at his control of the winds and waves; (Matt.8:27) and that he spoke to the woman at Sychars well (Jn.4:27).
Pilate marvelled at how he reacted under interrogation. Whatever he did or said, or whoever he interacted with the response was the same: they marvelled!
But this should come as no surprise to us, of course: we simply share the Psalmists assessment, the Lord has done this, and it is marvellous in our eyes (Psa.118:23).
