Text: Mark 1:21-28

(21) Jesus and his companions went to the town of Capernaum. When the Sabbath day came, he went into the synagogue and began to teach. (22) The people were amazed at his teaching, for he taught with real authority—quite unlike the teachers of religious law. (23) Suddenly, a man in the synagogue who was possessed by an evilspirit began shouting, (24) “Why are you interfering with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One sent from God!”

(25) Jesus cut him short. “Be quiet! Come out of the man,” he ordered. (26) At that, the evil spirit screamed, threw the man into a convulsion, and then came out of him. (27) Amazement gripped the audience, and they began to discuss what had happened. “What sort of new teaching is this?” they asked excitedly. “It has such authority! Even evil spirits obey his orders!” (28) The news about Jesus spread quickly throughout the entire region of Galilee. (29) After Jesus left the synagogue with James and John,

they went to Simon and Andrew’s home. (30) Now Simon’s mother-in-law was sick in bed with a high fever. They told Jesus about her right away. (31) So he went to her bedside, took her by the hand, and helped her sit up. Then the fever left her, and she prepared a meal for them. (32) That evening after sunset, many sick and demon-possessed people were brought to Jesus. (33) The whole town gathered at the door to watch. (34) So Jesus healed many people who were sick with various diseases, and he cast out many demons. But because the demons knew who he was, he did not allow them to speak.
