Luca 11:18

Listen to Luca 11:18
18 Così anche, se Satana è diviso in parti contrarie, come può durare il suo regno? poichè voi dite che io caccio i demoni per Beelzebub.

Luca 11:18 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 11:18

And if Satan also be divided against himself, how shall
his kingdom stand?
&c.] This is the accommodation of the above parables, or proverbial sentences; suggesting, that Satan must be against himself, if what the Pharisees said was true; and consequently, his kingdom and government, could not long subsist:

because ye say that I cast out devils through Beelzebub;
which is all one as to say, that Satan is divided against himself, which is not reasonable to suppose; (See Gill on Matthew 12:26) and (See Gill on Mark 3:26).

Luca 11:18 In-Context

16 Ed altri, tentandolo, chiedevano da lui un segno dal cielo.
17 Ma egli, conoscendo i lor pensieri, disse loro: Ogni regno diviso in parti contrarie è deserto; parimente, ogni casa divisa in parti contrarie, ruina.
18 Così anche, se Satana è diviso in parti contrarie, come può durare il suo regno? poichè voi dite che io caccio i demoni per Beelzebub.
19 E, se io caccio i demoni per Beelzebub, per cui li cacciano i vostri figliuoli? perciò, essi saranno vostri giudici.
20 Ma, se io, per lo dito di Dio, caccio i demoni, il regno di Dio è adunque giunto a voi.
