²⁹After they left the synagogue, they went directly to the house of Simon and Andrew. James and John went with them. ³⁰Simon’s mother-in-law was in bed with a fever. The first thing they did was to tell Jesus about her. ³¹Jesus went to her, took her hand, and helped her get up. The fever went away, and she prepared a meal for them.

³²In the evening, when the sun had set, people brought to him everyone who was sick and those possessed by demons. ³³The whole city had gathered at his door. ³⁴He cured many who were sick with various diseases and forced many demons out of people. However, he would not allow the demons to speak. After all, they knew who he was.

Spreading the Good News in Galilee—Matthew 4:23–25; Luke 4:42–44

³⁵In the morning, long before sunrise, Jesus went to a place where he could be alone to pray. ³⁶Simon and his friends searched for him. ³⁷When they found him, they told him, “Everyone is looking for you.”

³⁸Jesus said to them, “Let’s go somewhere else, to the small towns that are nearby. I have to spread ⸤the Good News⸥ in them also. This is why I have come.”

³⁹So he went to spread ⸤the Good News⸥ in the synagogues all over Galilee, and he forced demons out of people.
