Jesus in the synagogue spoke of the kingdom He had come to establish, and of His mission to set free the captives of Satan. He was interrupted by a shriek of terror. A madman rushed forward from among the people, crying out, "Let us alone; what have we to do with Thee, Thou Jesus of Nazareth? art Thou come to destroy us? I know Thee who Thou art; the Holy One of God."

I synagogen talte Jesus om det rige, han var kommen for at oprette, og om sin udsendelse for at befri Satans fanger. Han blev afbrudt af et rædselsskrig. Et vanvittigt menneske styrtede frem fra skaren og råbte "Oh, lad os i fred, Jesus fra Nazaret! er du kommen for at ødelægge os? Jeg ved, hvem du er: Guds Hellige!"
