Luke 4:37

And the fame of him went out
From hence on account of his dispossessing this unclean spirit, which seems to be the first instance of this kind:

into every city, town, and village in Galilee, and even into all places round about Galilee; ( Mark 1:28 ) .

Luke 4:37 In-Context

35 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be silent, and come out of him!" And when the demon had thrown him down in the midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm.
36 And they were all amazed and said to one another, "What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out."
37 And reports of him went out into every place in the surrounding region.
38 And he arose and left the synagogue, and entered Simon's house. Now Simon's mother-in-law was ill with a high fever, and they besought him for her.
39 And he stood over her and rebuked the fever, and it left her; and immediately she rose and served them.
