"I do not say seven times," answered Jesus, "but seventy times seven times.

After this the Lord appointed seventy others, and sent them before Him, by twos, to go to every town or place which He Himself intended to visit.

When the Seventy returned, they exclaimed joyfully, "Master, even the demons submit to us when we utter your name."

Then, calling to him two of the Captains, he gave his orders. "Get ready two hundred men," he said, "to march to Caesarea, with seventy cavalry and two hundred light infantry, starting at nine o'clock to-night."
