Luca 8:29

La Bibbia di Giovanni Diodati

Perciocchè egli comandava allo spirito immondo di uscir di quell’uomo; perchè già da lungo tempo se n’era impodestato; e benchè fosse guardato, legato con catene, e con ceppi, rompeva i legami, ed era trasportato dal demonio ne’ deserti.

La Nuova Diodati
Ges comandava infatti allo spirito immondo di uscire da quelluomo, perch molte volte se ne era impossessato e, bench fosse stato legato con catene e con ceppi e fosse sorvegliato, egli spezzava i legami ed era spinto dal demone nei deserti.

Riveduta Bibbia
Poiché Gesù comandava allo spirito immondo d’uscir da quell’uomo; molte volte infatti esso se n’era impadronito; e benché lo si fosse legato con catene e custodito in ceppi, avea spezzato i legami, ed era portato via dal demonio ne’ deserti.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For he had commanded the unclean spirit..... That had the rest of the devils under his authority, and power,

to come out of the man; this he had done, either before, or just as he came up to him; :-.

For oftentimes it had caught him; possessed him, and wrought so strongly in him, and with so much fury, that there was no governing him:

and he was kept bound with chains and fetters; attempts were made to bind him, and keep him bound, but in vain: and he brake the bands;

:-.

And was driven of the devil into the wilderness: into some desert and desolate place, where were the tombs and sepulchres of the dead; this was done by the prince of the legion.
