| What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not--or, as in Mat 8:29, "Art Thou come to torment us before the time?" (See on Mar 1:24). Behold the tormentor anticipating, dreading, and entreating exemption from torment! In Christ they discern their destined Tormentor; the time, they know, is fixed, and they feel as if it were come already! (Jam 2:19). |

Crying - he saith
The inarticulate cry (Mar 5:5), and then the articulate speech.
What have I to do with thee? (τί ἐμοὶ καὶ σοὶ)
Lit., what is there to me and thee ? What have we in common?
I adjure thee by God
Stronger than Luke's I pray thee. The verb ὁρκίζω, I adjure, is condemned by the grammarians as inelegant. |
| Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
What have I to do with thee - Or, What is it to thee and me, or why dost thou trouble thyself with me? See on Mar 1:24 (note), and Mat 8:29 (note), where the idiom and meaning are explained.
Jesus - This is omitted by four MSS., and by several in Luk 8:28, and by many of the first authority in Mat 8:29 (note). See the note on this latter place. |
