Sunday School Times Mark 5:15-16 And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind… At the death of Queen Mary of England, several Protestants were in the prisons awaiting martyrdom. Who can tell their joy when it was announced that the tyrant was dead and they were free! But what is deliverance from a bodily persecutor in comparison with the deliverance of a soul from the bonds of Satan? Jesus Christ comes as a conqueror to destroy the works of the devil; at His word the bonds of Satan's captives fall from them, and they are free. (Sunday School Times.) Parallel Verses KJV: And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid. |
