Contextual Overview
14 And he was casting out a demon that was dumb; and it came to pass, when the demon went out, the dumb began speaking. And the multitudes marvelled; 15 but, some from among them, said - In Beelzebul, the ruler of the demons, is he casting out the demons; 16 and, others, putting him to the test, a sign out of heaven, were seeking from him. 17 But, he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them - Every kingdom, against itself divided, is laid waste, and, a house, against a house, divided , falleth; 18 And, if, even Satan, against himself hath become divided, how shall his kingdom stand? because ye are saying that, in Beelzebul, am I casting out the demons. 19 But, if, I, in Beelzebul, am casting out the demons, In whom are, your sons, casting them out? Wherefore, they, shall be, your judges. 20 But, if, with the finger of God, I, am casting out the demons, then doubtless unawares hath come upon you, the kingdom of God. 21 Whensoever, the mighty one, armed, may be guarding his own dwelling, in peace, are his goods; 22 But, whensoever, a mightier than he, shall come upon and vanquish him, his panoply, he taketh away, wherein he was trusting, and, his spoils, he distributeth. 23 He that is not with me, is, against me; and, he that gathereth not with me, scattereth.
