Meaning: disposed; prepared

Thematic Bible



But certain also of the wandering Jews, exorcists, took in hand to be naming, over them that had the wicked spirits, the name of the Lord Jesus, saying - I adjure you, by Jesus whom Paul proclaimeth! And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, a High-priest, who, this thing, were doing. But the wicked spirit. Answering, said unto them - Jesus, indeed, I am getting to know, and, Paul, I well-know, - but who are, ye? read more.
And the man in whom was the wicked spirit, springing upon them, mastering them both, prevailed against them, so that, naked and wounded, fled they out of that house. And, this, became known to all - both Jews and Greeks - who were dwelling in Ephesus; and fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was being magnified.
