Sorry I lost the context of the phrase, but as far as I remember when I looked up the phrase on Google I felt it didn't matter. I felt it had one meaning. At any rate, could you tell me whatever meaning you know, or where I could look into it.
The phrase is:
"take the points raised". Is it an idiom?
P.S: I've just found the post. Two guys discussing a grammar question. Now one of them wrote the following as a reply quoting from the other guy:
So – and please help me understand this
– to take the points raised: "…not impossible, in my opinion, but 'Have you ever been there?' is more natural in the situations I can
think of"Why? I tried to explain why it was both 'natural', and
correct grammar in terms of the sentence provided.

When you "raise a point", you are bringing up an issue to be discussed. After someone has raised a point, you can refer to it as "the point [that has been] raised."
One possible sense of take is consider, as in "take, for example, the lowly worm." (You are not being asked to physically acquire a worm, but to think about some aspect of it.)
Thus, when you want others to examine the issue that someone brought up, you can ask them to "take the point raised".
