I've read this thread many times. What spiritual insight are you seeking? I don't understand. Are you trying to understand what it meant for the man to be speechless? Or are you searching for a passage that addresses "speaking in tongues?"
When I read the passage which I believe is a parable, I thought that he was speechless in that he had no answer - no valid reason or excuse for not having a wedding garment. 
Isn't that where the spiritual application lies?
Why don't most of those who are called not put on a 'spiritual' 'wedding garment'?
Why do they remain at the same level in the same "ordinary (carnal) clothes"?
I thought that was the interpreation of the man being speechless in this parable.
But pardon me; maybe I am not understanding what "spiritual insight" you're searching for.

Marky Mark:
Just a personal observation but this is how I have come to see what being speechless represents.

Job 37:19  Teach us what we shall say unto him; For we cannot set our speech in order by reason of darkness.

Joh 8:43  Wherefore, is it, that, my speech, ye do not understand? because ye cannot hear my word.

When one is left speechless,one is without words. If one is left without the Words of Jesus Christ within,the Truth is not in him and being in darkness [evil] is the end result of not walking in the light [love] of the Word.

Joh 3:19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

1Jn 2:9 He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now.
1Jn 2:10 He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him.
1Jn 2:11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

Eph 5:8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:


Hope this helps some.


Peace...Mark
