Luke 4:35

35 et increpavit illi Iesus dicens obmutesce et exi ab illo et cum proiecisset illum daemonium in medium exiit ab illo nihilque illum nocuit

Luke 4:35 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 4:35

And Jesus rebuked him
Not the man, but the unclean spirit: or "that demon", as the Persic version reads it:

saying, hold thy peace,
or "be thou muzzled", as the word signifies,

and come out of him;
(See Gill on Matthew 1:25).

and when the devil had thrown him in the midst;
in the "midst of them", as the Arabic version adds; that is, in the midst of the people that were in the synagogue; or, as the Ethiopic version reads, "in the midst of the synagogue", where he threw him into convulsive fits, and left him:

he came out of him, and hurt him not;
though he sadly convulsed him, and put him to great pain, yet he did not wound him in any part of his body, or take away the use of any of his limbs; and much less hurt his soul so as to destroy it; all which was desired and intended by him, but was hindered by Christ; (See Gill on Mark 1:26).

Luke 4:35 In-Context

33 et in synagoga erat homo habens daemonium inmundum et exclamavit voce magna

34 dicens sine quid nobis et tibi Iesu Nazarene venisti perdere nos scio te qui sis Sanctus Dei

35 et increpavit illi Iesus dicens obmutesce et exi ab illo et cum proiecisset illum daemonium in medium exiit ab illo nihilque illum nocuit

36 et factus est pavor in omnibus et conloquebantur ad invicem dicentes quod est hoc verbum quia in potestate et virtute imperat inmundis spiritibus et exeunt

37 et divulgabatur fama de illo in omnem locum regionis
