they.
were.
 Their faith even, such as it was, blinds them to all beyond that; because, while rightly attaching itself to the Person of Christ, it connected—or rather, their own hearts, in which the faith existed, connected—with Christ the accomplishment of that which their flesh desired and sought in Him for themselves. (Mark 9 by J.N. Darby)
 It is not lack of power we have to own, but scanty entrance into His mind. The fleshly mind can think and talk of glory here below, but the cross breaks in neither understood nor welcome. (Mark 9 by W. Kelly)
 The carnal mind which would so end in man was actively at work in themselves; and He knew it, and laid it bare before their eyes. (Mark 9 by W. Kelly)
