The Pharisees Rebuked

22 (A)Then a (B)demon-possessed man who was blind and mute was brought to (a)Jesus, and He healed him, so that the mute man spoke and saw. 23 All the crowds were amazed, and were saying, “This man cannot be the (C)Son of David, can he?” 24 But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, “This man (D)casts out demons only by (b)Beelzebul the ruler of the demons.”
