Mark 1:21-28 ▼

21 They went into Capernaum; and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the synagogue and [began] to teach.

22 They were amazed at His teaching; for He was teaching them as [one] having authority, and not as the scribes.

23 Just then there was a man in their synagogue with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,

24 saying, |What business do we have with each other, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are-- the Holy One of God!|

25 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, |Be quiet, and come out of him!|

26 Throwing him into convulsions, the unclean spirit cried out with a loud voice and came out of him.

27 They were all amazed, so that they debated among themselves, saying, |What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him.|

28 Immediately the news about Him spread everywhere into all the surrounding district of Galilee.
