Luke 9:42

42 et cum accederet elisit illum daemonium et dissipavit

Luke 9:42 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 9:42

And as he was yet a coming
Whilst he was in the way bringing to Jesus, before he came to him:

the devil threw him down, and tare him;
knowing who Jesus was, and that he was able to dispossess him: and having reason to believe he would, was resolved to do all the mischief he could, and give him all the pain add distress he was able, whilst he was in him; and therefore threw him to the ground, and convulsed him in a terrible manner at the same time:

and Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit;
for his malice and cruelty, and ordered him to depart:

and healed the child;
by dispossessing the spirit:

and delivered him again to his father;
free from the possession, and in perfect health, and which must be very pleasing and acceptable to him.

40 et rogavi discipulos tuos ut eicerent illum et non potuerunt

41 respondens autem Iesus dixit o generatio infidelis et perversa usquequo ero apud vos et patiar vos adduc huc filium tuum

42 et cum accederet elisit illum daemonium et dissipavit

43 et increpavit Iesus spiritum inmundum et sanavit puerum et reddidit illum patri eius

44 stupebant autem omnes in magnitudine Dei omnibusque mirantibus in omnibus quae faciebat dixit ad discipulos suos ponite vos in cordibus vestris sermones istos Filius enim hominis futurum est ut tradatur in manus hominum
