54 and coming to his ⁿhometown he ^otaught them in their synagogue, so that they were ^pastonished, and said, “Where did this man get this wisdom and these mighty works?

33 And when the crowd heard it, they were ^lastonished at his teaching.

32 and they were ^oastonished at his teaching, for his word possessed ^pauthority.
