Context of Luke 9:37

35Then a voice spoke from the cloud and it said, ‘This is my Son. He is the one that I have chosen. Listen to him.’ 36The voice stopped speaking. Then the three disciples saw that only Jesus was there with them now. They did not tell anyone at this time about what they had seen. The next day Jesus came down from the mountain with the three disciples. A large crowd met him. 38A man from the crowd shouted to him. ‘Teacher, please, I ask you to help my son. He is my only child. 39Sometimes a bad spirit takes hold of him and then he screams. The spirit throws his body first one way then another and water comes out of his mouth. The spirit gives him a lot of pain and it does not leave him alone very much.
