The 5th and 6th phrases have these 10 dialog words, ... kai hoti en tō archonti tōn diamoniōn, ekballei ta diamonia ("and that in to-the ruler of-the demons, he-casts-out the demons."). The 10 dialog words are top down. The scribes now accuse Jesus of casting out demons (from his hands) in order to raise up Beelzebul, the "Ruler of the Demons," to take the place of God the Father. The dark triangle, the sign of an "Unclean Spirit," takes the place of the "Holy Spirit." This is the scribes unforgiveable act of blasphemy, their eternal sin, blaspheming God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. 3:22a < Verse > 3:23a |
