The Greek word for "saw" is "εἶδεν" (eiden), which implies not just physical sight but also understanding and perception. Jesus, fully aware of the growing crowd, acts decisively. Historically, Jesus often performed miracles in a way that emphasized faith over spectacle, suggesting His desire to focus on the spiritual transformation rather than public acclaim.He rebuked the unclean spirit The term "rebuked" comes from the Greek "ἐπετίμησεν" (epetimēsen), which means to admonish or charge strictly. This word indicates Jesus' authority over spiritual forces. The "unclean spirit" refers to a demon, considered impure and opposed to God's holiness. In the Jewish context, anything unclean was separated from God, and Jesus' rebuke signifies His power to restore purity and order.'You deaf and mute spirit,' He said Here, Jesus identifies the specific affliction caused by the spirit. The Greek words "κωφὸν" (kōphon) for "deaf" and "ἄλαλον" (alalon) for "mute" describe the spirit's effects on the boy. This direct address underscores Jesus' authority and the personal nature of His healing. In the broader scriptural context, Jesus often healed physical ailments as a sign of His messianic mission, fulfilling prophecies like <a href="/isaiah/35-5.htm">Isaiah 35:5-6</a>, which speak of the Messiah opening the ears of the deaf and the tongues of the mute.'I command you to come out and never enter him again.' The word "command" is translated from the Greek "ἐπιτάσσω" (epitassō), indicating a strong, authoritative order. Jesus' command is not a request but a definitive statement of power. The phrase "never enter him again" highlights the completeness and permanence of Jesus' deliverance. This reflects the biblical theme of liberation from bondage, as seen in the Exodus narrative, where God delivers His people from slavery. Jesus' authority ensures that the boy is not only freed but also protected from future oppression.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/mark/9.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div>(25) When Jesus saw that the people came running together.--This fact and the words of the rebuke to the "deaf and dumb spirit" are found only in St. Mark.Enter no more into him.--We may note in these words, used by our Lord in this case only, a tender adaptation to the weak faith of the father. He had seen so many relapses, the last state worse than the first, that it was hard for him to take in the thought that the cure would be complete and permanent.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/mark/9.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div>Verses 25-29. - The multitude had been much excited by the dispute between the scribes and our Lord's disciples. And now, when they noticed that he had taken the father apart, as no doubt he had done, to question him they came running together (the word is ἐπισυντρέχει, an unusual word, meaning "they ran together to the place") where he was, crowding upon him. Then he came forward, and with a voice of sublime authority he said, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I command thee, come out of him and enter no more into him. The rest of the narrative shows how malignant and powerful this evil spirit was, who dared so to resist and defy Christ that, in his departure out of the afflicted boy, he almost robbed him of life. "Most unwillingly," says Archbishop Trench, "does the evil spirit depart, seeking to destroy that which he can no longer retain." And he quotes Fuller, who says that he is "like an outgoing tenant, that cares not what mischief he does to the house that he is quitting." Some have supposed that this was an evil spirit possessed of more than ordinary power as well as malignity, and that this was the reason why our Lord's disciples could not cast him out; so that this expulsion needed the mighty arm of One stronger than the strong. The words in the Greek are powerful, severe, and authoritative: "He rebuked (ἐπετίμησε) the unclean spirit, ... Thou dumb and deaf spirit (τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἄλαλον καὶ κωφὸν), I command thee (ἐγώ σοι ἐπιτάσσω), come out of him, and enter no more into him." This explains our Lord's words when the disciples remarked afterwards, We could not out it out... This kind can come out by nothing, save by prayer; that is, this particular kind of malicious spirit. For there are different degrees of malice and energy in evil spirits as in evil men. The words "and fasting" are added in many ancient authorities. <a href="/commentaries/mark/9-25.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a> <a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div>When δὲ (de) Conjunction <a href="/greek/strongs_1161.htm">Strong's 1161: </a> A primary particle; but, and, etc. Jesus Ἰησοῦς (Iēsous) Noun - Nominative Masculine Singular <a href="/greek/strongs_2424.htm">Strong's 2424: </a> Of Hebrew origin; Jesus, the name of our Lord and two other Israelites. saw Ἰδὼν (Idōn) Verb - Aorist Participle Active - Nominative Masculine Singular <a href="/greek/strongs_3708.htm">Strong's 3708: </a> Properly, to stare at, i.e. to discern clearly; by extension, to attend to; by Hebraism, to experience; passively, to appear. that ὅτι (hoti) Conjunction <a href="/greek/strongs_3754.htm">Strong's 3754: </a> Neuter of hostis as conjunction; demonstrative, that; causative, because. a crowd ὄχλος (ochlos) Noun - Nominative Masculine Singular <a href="/greek/strongs_3793.htm">Strong's 3793: </a> From a derivative of echo; a throng; by implication, the rabble; by extension, a class of people; figuratively, a riot. had come running, ἐπισυντρέχει (episyntrechei) Verb - Present Indicative Active - 3rd Person Singular <a href="/greek/strongs_1998.htm">Strong's 1998: </a> To run together again.
