Strange things - Παραδοξα, paradoxes. A paradox is something that appears false and absurd, but is not really so: or, something contrary to the commonly received opinion. We have seen wonders wrought which seem impossible; and we should conclude them to be tricks and illusions, were it not for the indisputable evidence we have of their reality.
And they were all amazed, and they glorified God,.... Not the Pharisees, and doctors of the law, but the common people:
and were filled with fear; of the Divine Being, whose presence and power they were sensible must be in this case:
saying, we have seen strange things today; paradoxes, things wonderful, unthought of, unexpected, and incredible by carnal reason, and what were never seen, nor known before; as that a man, who was so enfeebled by the palsy, that he was obliged to be carried on a bed by four men, yet, on a sudden, by a word speaking, rose up, and carried his bed, on his back, home.
We have seen strange things to. day - Sins forgiven, miracles wrought.
