Mark 1:21-28 - Driving Out An Unclean Spirit

21 So, they went to Capernaum [Note: This was a city in Galilee that later became Jesus' headquarters while in Galilee. See verse 22 They were amazed at His teaching for He taught them as one who had [real] authority, and not as the experts in the law of Moses.

23 And just then there appeared in the synagogue a man dominated by an evil spirit. He shouted out, 24 "What business do we have with you, Jesus from Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are; [you are] God's Holy One."

25 Jesus spoke sternly to him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him." 26 And the evil spirit caused the man to have a convulsion, then shouted with a loud voice and came out of him.

27 And all the people [in the synagogue] were so amazed they began asking one another, "What is this, some new teaching? And it is spoken with such authority He even orders evil spirits, and they obey him." 28 And news about Him quickly spread everywhere, [even] into all of Galilee and the surrounding regions.
