After the temptation by Satan, Jesus went back full of and under
The power of the Holy Spirit into Galilee, and the fame of Him
Spread though the whole region round about. And He Himself
Conducted a course of teaching in their synagogues, being so
Recognized and honored and praised by all. So he came into
Nazareth, where He had been brought up; and He entered the
Synagogue as was His custom on the Sabbath Day. And He
Stood up to read. And there was handed to Him the scroll of
The book of the prophet Isaiah. He unrolled the book and
Found the place where it was written in Isaiah 61:1-2), and
Began to read.  Later He descended to Capernaum, a town in Galilee, and There continued to teach the people on the Sabbath days. And They were amazed at His teaching, for His word was with Authority and ability and weight and power. Now in the Synagogue there was a man who was possessed by the foul Spirit of a demon; and he cried out with a loud and deep terrible cry. “Ah, let me alone! What have You to do with us? What have we in common, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come To destroy us? I know Who You are, the Holy One of God!” But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, muzzled and gagged, And come out of him! And when the demon had thrown the man Down in their midst, he came out of him, without injuring him In any possible way. And they were all amazed and said to one Another, What kind of talk is this? For with authority and power He commands the foul spirits, and they come out! |
