Thematic Bible: Hears the report of the seventy disciples (in jerusalem)

And the seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Thy name!" And He said to them, "I was beholding Satan fallen as lightning out of the heavens. Behold, I have given you the authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall in any wise harm you. read more.
Notwithstanding, rejoice not in this, that the spirits are subject to you; but rejoice, because your names have been written in Heaven." In that same hour He exulted in the Holy Spirit, and said, "I thank Thee, O Father Lord of Heaven and earth, because Thou didst hide these things from the wise and discerning, and didst reveal them to babes: yea, Father, because it was well-pleasing in Thy sight. "All things were delivered up to Me by My Father; and no one knows Who the Son is, but the Father; and Who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son purposeth to reveal Him." And, turning to the disciples, He said, privately, "Happy the eyes that behold what ye are beholding! for I say to you, that many prophets and kings desired to see what ye are beholding, and did not see them; and to hear what ye are hearing, and heard them not."
