Luke Chapter 11 verse 17 Holy Bible

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(17-23) But he, knowing their thoughts.--St. Luke seems here to bring together into one narrative two incidents which in St. Matt. (Matthew 9:32; Matthew 12:22) appear as separated. The points of resemblance, the dumbness in both cases, both followed by the whisper that Jesus cast out devils by Beelzebub, may have easily led one who collected the facts some years after they occurred to regard the two as identical. On the general tenor of the passage, see Notes on Matthew 12:24-30.Parallel Commentaries ...GreekButδὲ (de)ConjunctionStrong's 1161: A primary particle; but, and, etc.[Jesus]Αὐτὸς (Autos)Personal / Possessive Pronoun - Nominative Masculine 3rd Person SingularStrong's 846: He, she, it, they, them, same.
