Context of Luke 11:14
12Or if your child asks you for an egg, would you give him a scorpion? 13Even though you’re evil, you know how to give good gifts to your children. So how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?” Jesus was forcing a demon out of a man. The demon had made the man unable to talk. When the demon had gone out, the man began to talk. The people were amazed. 15But some of them said, “He can force demons out of people only with the help of Beelzebul, the ruler of demons.” 16Others wanted to test Jesus and demanded that he show them some miraculous sign from heaven.
