Commentary on Luke 4:41

Theological / Devotional

Devils See Additional Note on Mark 1.

Thou art Christ. This is a more definite statement than that of the demoniac earlier in the day (see v. 34).

Suffered. Or, “allowed.” Jesus proceeded at once to silence them, perhaps because the testimony might be construed to mean that He was in league with them (see on Mark 3:11).

Christ. Literally, “the Christ,” that is, the Messiah. The definite article makes of the word a title rather than a personal name (see on Matt. 1:1).
