“And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galileans?”
Utterly amazed, they asked: 'Aren't all these who are speaking Galileans? — the amazement (existano, astound/bewilderment) at Galileans speaking multiple languages is linguistically impossible unless divine power intervenes. Galilee was a marginal region; Galileans were rural, unpolished, unlikely to be multilingual. The social anomaly underscores the Spirit's power to transcend human limitation.
