9:18

dia ... membantingkannya ke tanah mulutnya .................. mereka(TB)/dia ..... berbuihlah mulutnya .................. mereka(TL) <846 4486> [teareth him. or, dasheth him.]

berbusa(TB)/dipontang-pantingkannya(TL) <875> [he foameth.]

As these symptoms accord very much with those of epileptic persons, some have ventured to assert that it was no real possession; but the evangelist expressly affirms that he had a "dumb spirit" which tare him, that our Lord charged him to "come out of him," etc.

bekertakan(TB)/kertak(TL) <5149> [gnasheth.]

Dan .................. dan .................. dapat ... cakap(TB)/serta .... dan ...... Dan .............. tetapi(TL) <2532 2480> [and they.]

9:25

menegor(TB)/ditengking-Nya(TL) <2008> [he rebuked.]

bisu(TB)/kelu(TL) <216> [thou.]

If this had been only a natural disease, as some have contended, could our Lord with any propriety have thus addressed it? If the demoniacal possession had been false, or merely a vulgar error, would our Lord, the Revealer of truth, have thus established falsehood, sanctioned error, or encouraged deception, by teaching men to ascribe effects to the malice and power of evil spirits, which they had no agency in producing? Impossible! Such conduct is utterly unworthy the sacred character of the Redeemer.

suruhkan Aku memerintahkan(TB)/Aku suruhkan(TL) <1473 2004> [I charge.]
