"And as they went forth, behold, there was brought to him a dumb man possessed with a demon." — Matthew 9:32 (ASV)
A dumb man (κωφον). Literally blunted in tongue as here and so dumb, in ear as in Mt 11:5 and so deaf. Homer used it of a blunted dart (Iliad xi. 390). Others applied it to mental dulness.
