18: ηλθεν γαρ ιωαννης μητε εσθιων μητε πινων και λεγουσιν δαιμονιον εχει— edit Textus Receptus
18: For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He hath a devil.- edit KJV text
18: For John came neither eating nor drinking; and they say: He hath a devil.— edit Douay text


Neither eating nor drinking. That is, abstaining from some kinds of food, and wine, as a Nazarene. It does not mean that he did not eat at all, but that he was remarkable for abstinence.

He hath a devil. He is actuated by a bad spirit. He is irregular, strange, and cannot be a good man.
