He is my only child! 39 A demon often attacks him and makes him scream. It shakes him until he foams at the mouth, and it won't leave him until it has completely worn the boy out. 40 I begged your disciples to force out the demon, but they couldn't do it." 41 Jesus said to them, "You people are stubborn and don't have any faith! How much longer must I be with you? Why do I have to put up with you?" Then Jesus said to the man, "Bring your son to me." 42 While the boy was being brought, the demon attacked him and made him shake all over. Jesus ordered the demon to stop. Then he healed the boy and gave him back to his father.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And behold, a man of the company,.... One that was in the company, and among the multitude, that met him:
cried out; with great vehemence and earnestness:
saying, Master; doctor, or "Rabbi":
I beseech thee: most humbly, for he was now on his knees:
look upon my son: with pity and compassion, and help him:
for he is mine only child; wherefore he was dear unto him, and he was greatly concerned for him, and earnestly desirous of his being restored to health; and this he mentions, to move the compassion of Christ.
