21 So they came to Capernaum, and on the next Sabbath He went to the synagogue and began to teach. 22 The people listened with amazement to His teaching--for there was authority about it: it was very different from that of the Scribes-- 23 when all at once, there in their synagogue, a man under the power of a foul spirit screamed out: 24 "What have you to do with us, Jesus the Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are--God's Holy One." 25 But Jesus reprimanded him, saying, "Silence! come out of him." 26 So the foul spirit, after throwing the man into convulsions, came out of him with a loud cry. 27 And all were amazed and awe-struck, so they began to ask one another, "What does this mean? Here is a new sort of teaching--and a tone of authority! And even to foul spirits he issues orders and they obey him!" 28 And His fame spread at once everywhere in all that part of Galilee.
