It is enough for the disciple (student) that he is like his teacher, and the servant like his master. If they called the master of the house Beelzebub (Satan), others of the household could also be called the same!

The Pharisees saw it and said to him: Your disciples do that which it is not lawful to do on the Sabbath. He replied to them: Have you read what David did when he and his companions were hungry? He entered into the house of God, and he and his companions ate the showbread (holy bread), which it was not lawful for them to eat. It was only lawful for the priests. read more.
Have you read the law that on the Sabbath day the priests in the Temple profane the Sabbath, and are guiltless? I say to you, one greater than the Temple is here. If you had known what this means, 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless. For the Son of man is Lord of the Sabbath. He left and went into their synagogue. There he saw a man who had a withered hand. They asked him if it is lawful to heal on the Sabbath day? They wanted to accuse him. He said to them: Which of you having one sheep, if this sheep fell into a pit on the Sabbath day, will not get it and lift it out. How much more value is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath day! Then he said to the man: Stretch out your hand. He stretched it out and it was restored whole like the other. The Pharisees left and took counsel against him, to decide how they might destroy him.

The chief priests and all the Sanhedrin were looking for false witness against Jesus. They wanted to put him to death. They failed, even though a number of false witnesses came. Later two witnesses came. They said: This man said, 'I am able to destroy the Temple of God and to rebuild it in three days.'


They led Jesus away to the high priest. The chief priests, elders and scribes came together with him. Peter followed him at a distance. He followed into the court of the high priest. He was sitting with the officers staying warm by the fire. Now the chief priests and the whole council looked for witness against Jesus to put him to death. They found none. read more.
Many gave false witness against him. But their witness was not in agreement. One person falsely witnessed against him by saying: We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands. Even so their witness did not agree. The high priest stood in the middle of them, and said to Jesus: Do you not answer? What is it these say against you? But he kept quiet and said nothing. Again the high priest questioned him: Are you the Christ, the son of the Holy One? Jesus said: I am and you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of heaven. Violently parting his robes, the high priest said: What need do we have for more witnesses? We have heard his words against God. What is your opinion? They all said he should be put to death. Some spit on him and covering his face they gave him blows. Guess who hit you, they said. The leaders took him and beat him with their hands.

They accused him, saying: We found this man perverting our nation. He forbids payment of tax to Caesar. He claims to be Christ a king.

They answered: If this man were not an evildoer we would not deliver him to you.

If I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Let them be your judges.


If Satan is divided against himself how will his kingdom stand? You say I cast out demons with the help of Beelzebub. If Beelzebub helps me cast out demons, who helps your sons cast them out? They will be your judges.




Scribes that came down from Jerusalem said: He has Beelzebub. He casts out demons by the prince of the demons. Jesus called them to him and spoke to them in illustrations. He asked: How could Satan cast out Satan? When a kingdom is divided against itself that kingdom cannot stand. read more.
When a house is divided against itself it will not be able to stand. If Satan has risen up against himself, he is divided, cannot stand and will come to an end. No one can enter into the house of the strong man and steal his property unless he first captures the strong man. Then he will steal his property. I tell you sins will be forgiven of the sons of men, and their evil talk will be forgiven. But whoever speaks evil and defames Holy Spirit will not be forgiven but is guilty of an eternal sin. They exclaimed: He has an unclean spirit!

The Jews answered: Do we not speak correctly that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?



News about him spread throughout the country of Syria. People sick and suffering from diseases, people with demons, epileptics and paralytics, came to him. Jesus healed them all.

That evening, they brought many people possessed with demons to him. He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all that were sick.

Demons came out from many. They cried out: You are the Son of God! He rebuked them and charged them not to speak for they knew he was the Christ.


Someone possessed with a demon, blind and dumb was brought to him. He healed him and the dumb man spoke and could see. The crowds were amazed, and said: Can this be the son of David? When the Pharisees heard it, they said: This man casts out demons by Beelzebub, the prince of the demons. read more.
Knowing their thoughts, he said to them: Every kingdom divided against itself is destroyed. Every city or house divided against itself will not stand. If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How will his kingdom stand? If I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Let them be your judges. But if I cast out demons by God's Spirit, then the kingdom of God has come to you. How can one enter into the house of a strong man and steal his things, except he first tie up the strong man? Then he can rob his house. He that is not with me is against me. And he that does not gather with me, scatters. Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men. But the blasphemy against God's Spirit will not be forgiven. Whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him. But whoever speaks against Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is to come. Either make the tree good, and its fruit good, or make the tree corrupt, and its fruit corrupt. The fruit a tree produces provides its reputation. You offspring of vipers. How can you who are evil speak good things? Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. The good man performs good things out of his good treasure. The evil man performs evil things out of his evil treasure. I tell you there will be an account in the Judgment Day for every careless word that men say. For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.

Also present was Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him. Then he went into a house. The crowd gathered so close that they did not have time for bread. When his own people heard of this they went to apprehend him. They said: He has lost his senses. read more.

If I use the finger (power) (Spirit) (Exodus 31:18) (2 Corinthians 3:3) of God to cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you? When the fully armed strong man guards his own palace, his goods are safe. When some one stronger comes to him and overpowers him he takes away his armor and steels his possessions. He who is not with me is against me. He who does not help me gather actually scatters.

He who is not with me is against me. He who does not help me gather actually scatters. When an unclean spirit leaves a man it passes through desolate places. It seeks rest and finds none. It says, 'I will return from where I came.' When he returns he finds the place swept and adorned. He then takes seven other spirits more evil than himself and they enter in and dwell. The last condition of that man becomes worse than the first.







The chief priests and the scribes saw the powerful works he did. They heard the children crying out in the Temple: Glory to the son of David. This made them very angry.

Some of the scribes sitting there reasoned in their hearts: Why does this man speak this way? He blasphemes for only God is the one who can forgive sins.
