Luke 4:31-44 - Jesus Teaches And Heals Many In Capernaum

31 Then he went down to Capharnahum, a town of Galilee, and on the sabbath he taught the people; 32 they were astounded at his teaching, for his word came with authority. 33 Now in the synagogue there was a man possessed by the spirit of an unclean daemon, who shrieked aloud, 34 "Ha! Jesus of Nazaret, what business have you with us? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, you are God's holy One!"

35 But Jesus checked it, saying, "Be quiet, come out of him." And after throwing him down before them the daemon did come out of him without doing him any harm. 36 Then amazement came over them all; they talked it over among themselves, saying, "What does this mean? He orders the unclean spirits with authority and power, and they come out!" 37 And a report of him spread over all the surrounding country.

38 When he got up to leave the synagogue he went to the house of Simon. Simon's mother-in-law was laid up with a severe attack of fever, so they asked him about her; 39 he stood over her and checked the fever, and it left her. Then she instantly got up and ministered to them.

40 At sunset all who had any people ill with any sort of disease brought them to him; he laid his hands on everyone and healed them. 41 From many people daemons were also driven out, clamouring aloud, "You are God's son!" But he checked them and refused to let them say anything, as they knew he was the Christ.

42 When day broke he went away out to a lonely spot, but the crowds made inquiries about him, came to where he was, and tried to keep him from leaving them. 43 He answered them, "I must preach the glad news of the Reign of God to the other towns as well, for that is what I was sent to do." 44 So he went preaching through the synagogues of Judaea.
