It was enough that the admitted pretensions to such powers among the Pharisees justified this incontrovertible argumentum ad hominem.<\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n Verse 19<\/span>.

Which is what the Pharisees charged him with; in the Greek copies, and so in the Arabic and Ethiopic versions it is read, “by Beelzebul”, and so in the preceding verses; [See comments on Mt 10:25]<\/span><\/p>\n By whom do your sons cast them out<\/strong>? by whose help? or in whose name? for the Jews pretended to cast out devils, and to heal those that were possessed with them; which they did sometimes, by making use of the names of the patriarchs, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and sometimes of the name of Solomon: Josephus q speaks of many in his time, who had this power of healing; and he himself saw one Eleazar, in the presence of Vespasian, his children, officers, and soldiers, cure many that were possessed of devils: and his method was, by putting a ring to the nose of the possessed, under the seal of which, was a root directed to by Solomon, and thereby brought out the unclean spirit; and as soon as the man was healed, he adjured the devil never to return more; at which time he made mention of the name of Solomon, and rehearsed the enchantments written by him: the said Eleazar, to give a specimen of the efficacy of his art, set a cup full of water upon the ground, and commanded the devil when he went out of the man, to turn it over, as a sign that he had left the man, and the devil immediately obeyed his order: now if these sons of theirs cast out devils, which they would not say were done by the help of the devil, or in his name, why should they ascribe the ejection of devils by Christ, to a diabolical assistance?<\/p>\n therefore shall they be your judges<\/strong>; or “judges against you”, as the Arabic version; or “shall reprove you”, as the Ethiopic; convict and condemn you; [See comments on Mt 12:27]<\/span><\/p>\n q Antiqu.

A Greek condition deals only with the statement<\/I>, not with the actual facts. For sake of argument, Jesus here assumes that he casts out demons by Beelzebub. The conclusion is a reductio ad absurdum<\/I>. The Jewish exorcists practiced incantations against demons (Ac 19:13<\/span>). <\/P> <\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1) “And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils,” <\/strong>(el de ego en Beezeboul ekballo ta daimonia) “Then if I expel demons by (the power of) Beelzebub,” the Baal god of dung, the fly, or idols, as you allege, Luk 11:15<\/span>; Mat 12:24<\/span>; Mar 3:22<\/span>.<\/p>\n 2) “By whom do Your sons cast them out?” <\/strong>(hoi huioi en tini ekballousin) “By what power do your sons expel them?” Mat 12:27<\/span>; Luk 9:49-50<\/span>, or your disciples cast them out, or do they?<\/p>\n 3) “Therefore shall they be your judges.” <\/strong>(dia touto auto! humon kritai esontai) “Therefore they shall be (exist as) your judges,” Mat 12:27<\/span>.<\/p>\n “And if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore shall they be your judges.”<\/p>\n And there was a further question. There were also Jewish exorcisers who cast out demons (‘your sons’ may signify disciples or younger Rabbis). If He did it by Beelzeboul, what about them? Were they also in league with Satan? Thus they would be judged as false by these whom they saw as respected and holy men.<\/p>\n 19 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your sons cast them<\/em> out? therefore shall they be your judges. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Ver. 19.
