Mark 1:21–34

Demons are Cast Out

Luke 4:31–37

^21xThen they went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath He entered the ^ysynagogue and taught. ^22zAnd they were astonished at His teaching, for He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

²³Now there was a man in their synagogue with an ^aunclean spirit. And he cried out, ²⁴saying, “Let us alone! ^bWhat have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come to destroy us? I ^cknow who You are—the ^dHoly One of God!”

²⁵But Jesus ^erebuked him, saying, ⁸ “Be quiet, and come out of him!” ²⁶And when the unclean spirit ^fhad convulsed him and cried out with a loud voice, he came out of him. ²⁷Then they were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, ⁹“What is this? What new ¹doctrine is this? For with authority He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him.” ²⁸And immediately His ^gfame spread throughout all the region around Galilee.

Peter’s Mother-in-Law is Healed

Matt. 8:14, 15; Luke 4:38, 39

^29hNow as soon as they had come out of the synagogue, they entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. ³⁰But Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and they told Him about her at once. ³¹So He came and took her by the hand and lifted her up, and immediately the fever left her. And she served them.

Many Healings

Matt. 8:16, 17; 4:23; Luke 4:40–44

³²ⁱAt evening, when the sun had set, they brought to Him all who were sick and those who were demon-possessed. ³³And the whole city was gathered together at the door. ³⁴Then He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and ^jcast out many demons; and He ^kdid not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him.
