11: και τα πνευματα τα ακαθαρτα οταν αυτον εθεωρει προσεπιπτεν αυτω και εκραζεν λεγοντα οτι συ ει ο υιος του θεου— edit Textus Receptus
11: And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son of God.- edit KJV text
11: And the unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down before him: and they cried, saying:— edit Douay text


Unclean spirits. Persons who were possessed of evil spirits.

Thou art the Son of God. The Son of God, by way of eminence. In this place it is equivalent to the Messiah, who was, among the Jews, called the Son of God. Hence they were charged not to make him known, because he was not desirous that it should be blazoned abroad that he claimed to be the Messiah. He had not yet done what he wished to establish his claims to the Messiahship; he was poor and unhonoured, and the claim would be treated as that of an impostor, as it was afterwards, and would endanger his life. For the present, therefore, he did not wish that it should be proclaimed abroad that he was the Messiah.
