And they were not able to withstand the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spake.

But they were not able to get the better of him, for his words were full of wisdom and of the Spirit.

και δεν ηδυναντο να αντισταθωσιν εις την σοφιαν και εις το πνευμα, με το οποιον ελαλει.

And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake.
