SCRIPTURE

"And many rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried out the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me." — Mark 10:48 (ASV)

Rebuked him (επετιμων αυτω). Imperfect tense. Kept rebuking repeatedly. So Lu 18:39. Aorist tense in Mt 20:31.

Should hold his peace (σιωπηση). Ingressive aorist subjunctive, become silent.

The more a great deal (πολλω μαλλον). So Lu 18:39. Only μειζον in Mt 20:31.
