And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him--A glorious word of command. BENGEL remarks that it was only the testimony borne to Himself which our Lord meant to silence. That he should afterwards cry out for fear or rage (Mar 1:26) He would right willingly permit. |

And Jesus rebuked him - A spirit of this cast will only yield to the sovereign power of the Son of God. All watchings, fasting, and mortifications, considered in themselves, will do little or no good. Uncleanness, of every description, will only yield to the rebuke of God. |
26 And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.
12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
