AMPLIFIED 2015 | Mark 5:13 Jesus gave them permission. And the unclean spirits came out [of the man] and entered the pigs. The herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the sea; and they were drowned [one after the other] in the sea. |
Subject: Why does Jesus have mercy on Demons? |
Bible Note: That's why I said "in my opinion." It's a qualifier that makes it clear that I am not quoting a scripture, kind of like what the Apostle Paul wrote "But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment." (1 Cor. 7:6.) He was expressing his opinion that unmarried people should remain unmarried. How often do you hear that preached in church? But, it was after all just his opinion, not the word of the Lord. |
