Mark 1:39 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 1:39

And he preached in their synagogues
Which were in the next towns, in the village cities, and

throughout all Galilee:
taking every town and city in his circuit, he continued preaching the Gospel of the kingdom in one place and another, until he had gone over the whole country:

and cast out devils;
as out of the souls, so out of the bodies of men, whereby he confirmed the doctrine he preached.
