The Man With an Unclean Spirit
Mk 1:21-28; Lk 4:31-37
Mark 1:21-28
21 Then they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the
synagogue and taught.
22 And they were astonished at His teaching, for He taught them as one having
authority, and not as the scribes.
23 Now there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit. And he cried
out,
24 saying, "Let us alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You
come to destroy us? I know who You are-- the Holy One of God!"
25 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!"
26 And when the unclean spirit had convulsed him and cried out with a loud voice,
he came out of him.
27 Then they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying,
"What is this? What new doctrine is this? For with authority He commands even
the unclean spirits, and they obey Him."
28 And immediately His fame spread throughout all the region around Galilee.
Luke 4:31-37
31 Then He went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and was teaching them on
the Sabbaths.
32 And they were astonished at His teaching, for His word was with authority.
33 Now in the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon. And
he cried out with a loud voice,
34 saying, "Let us alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You
come to destroy us? I know who You are-- the Holy One of God!"
35 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!" And when the
demon had thrown him in their midst, it came out of him and did not hurt him.
36 Then they were all amazed and spoke among themselves, saying, "What a word
this is! For with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they
come out."
37 And the report about Him went out into every place in the surrounding region.
