Here Mark could mean that: (1) the disciples kept the word to themselves, which means they kept it secret (see the following note). Further, they were discussing together what Jesus said. Alternate translation: [they kept the word to themselves, and they were discussing together] (2) the disciples kept the word, which means that they did what Jesus said. Further, they were discussing among themselves what Jesus said. Alternate translation: [they kept the word, discussing among themselves] or [they obeyed what Jesus said, discussing with each other] (3) the disciples kept the word, which means that they focused on it.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

τὸν λόγον ἐκράτησαν πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς

the statement ˱they˲_took_hold_of to themselves

When people have kept something to themselves, it means that they have not talked about it with anyone else. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use a comparable phrase or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [they kept the word secret] or [they did not speak to anyone else about the word]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

τὸν λόγον

the statement

Here, word represents an event that could be narrated using words. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your language or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [the event] or [the things that they had seen]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

συνζητοῦντες τί ἐστιν τὸ ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῆναι

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: καὶ τὸν λόγον ἐκράτησαν πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς συζητοῦντες τί ἐστιν τὸ ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῆναι)

It may be more natural in your language to have a direct quotation here. Alternate translation: [discussing together, ‘What is it “to rise from the dead”?’]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

τί ἐστιν τὸ ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῆναι

what is the_‹meaning› of /the/_dead /to/_rise_up

Here Mark implies that the disciples are discussing together what Jesus said about rising from the dead. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [what Jesus meant when he said, ‘rise from the dead’]

ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῆναι

of /the/_dead /to/_rise_up

See how you translated the phrase “risen from the dead” in 9:9.
