Contextual Overview
14 And while he was casting out a demon from a dumb man, it came to pass when the demon went out, the dumb man spoke; and the people were amazed. 15 But some of the men among them said, This man casts out devils by Beelzebub, the prince of devils. 16 And others, tempting him, asked him for a sign from heaven. 17 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them, Every kingdom which is divided against itself, shall be destroyed; and a house which is divided against itself shall fall. 18 And if Satan is divided against himself, how can his kingdom survive? And yet you say I am casting out devils through Beelzebub. 19 If I cast out devils through Beelzebub, by what do your sons cast them out? Therefore they will be your judges. 20 But if I cast out devils by the finger of God, then the kingdom of God is come near you. 21 When a strong man is armed and keeps watch over his courtyard, * his property is safe; 22 But if there should come one who is stronger than he, he will conquer him, and take away his armor in which he trusted, and divide his spoil. 23 He who is not with me is against me; and he who does not gather with me will scatter.
