26The unclean spirit threw the man into convulsions, and screeching with a loud voice, came out of him. 27They were all so amazed that they debated and questioned each other, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits (demons), and they obey Him.” Immediately the news about Him spread everywhere throughout the district surrounding Galilee. 29And immediately they left the synagogue and went into the house of Simon [Peter] and Andrew, accompanied by James and John. 30Now Simon’s mother-in-law was lying sick with a fever; and immediately they told Him about her.
