Lucas 11:17

Listen to Lucas 11:17
17 Jesus, conhecendo os seus pensamentos, disse-lhes: “Todo reino dividido contra si mesmo será arruinado, e uma casa dividida contra si mesma cairá.

Lucas 11:17 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 11:17

But he knowing their thoughts
Being God omniscient,

said unto them;
the following parables, as they are called in ( Mark 3:23 ) or proverbial expressions, very pertinent to the purpose, and sufficient to set aside the base calumnies of the Pharisees:

every kingdom divided against itself, is brought to desolation;
in process of time, division will end in destruction; and as it does in the kingdoms of the world, of which there have been fatal instances, so it would in the kingdom of Satan, was there in it a division, which the calumny of the Pharisees supposes:

and an house divided against an house, falleth.
The Persic version renders it, "an house divided from the foundation, falls"; the sense is, a family, in which one part is opposed to the other, issues in the ruin of both; (See Gill on Matthew 12:25), (See Gill on Mark 3:24), (See Gill on Mark 3:25).

Lucas 11:17 In-Context

15 Mas alguns deles disseram: “É por Belzebu, o príncipe dos demônios, que ele expulsa demônios”.
16 Outros o punham à prova, pedindo-lhe um sinal do céu.
17 Jesus, conhecendo os seus pensamentos, disse-lhes: “Todo reino dividido contra si mesmo será arruinado, e uma casa dividida contra si mesma cairá.
18 Se Satanás está dividido contra si mesmo, como o seu reino pode subsistir? Digo isso porque vocês estão dizendo que expulso demônios por Belzebu.
19 Se eu expulso demĂ´nios por Belzebu, por quem os expulsam os filhos de vocĂŞs? Por isso, eles mesmos estarĂŁo como juĂ­zes sobre vocĂŞs.
