1 En otra ocasión, Jesús entró en la sinagoga y había allí un hombre que tenía una mano paralizada. 2 Como era el día de reposo, quienes querían acusar a Jesús lo vigilaban para ver si se atrevería a curar al enfermo. 3 Jesús le pidió al hombre que tenía la mano paralizada que se parara frente a todos. 4 Y les preguntó a los otros: ―¿Qué es correcto hacer en el día de reposo: el bien o el mal? ¿Es este un día para salvar una vida o para matar? No le contestaron. 5 Jesús, mirándolos con una mezcla de enojo y tristeza por la indiferencia que mostraban, le dijo al hombre: ―Extiende la mano. Y al extenderla, se le sanó. 6 En cuanto salieron, los fariseos se reunieron con los herodianos para urdir un plan con el propósito de matar a Jesús. 7 Jesús y sus discípulos se retiraron a la orilla del lago, y los siguieron una gran multitud que venía de Galilea, 8 Judea, Jerusalén, Idumea, de más allá del Jordán y de las regiones de Tiro y Sidón. Las noticias de los milagros de Jesús atraían a toda esta gente. 9 Jesús le había ordenado a sus discípulos que le tuvieran siempre lista una barca para evitar que el gentío lo oprimiera, 10 pues como había realizado muchas curaciones, todos los enfermos lo rodeaban tratando de tocarlo. 11 Cada vez que los endemoniados lo veían, caían de rodillas ante él gritando: ―¡Tú eres el Hijo de Dios! 12 Actuaban así a pesar de que les tenía prohibido revelar quién era. 13 Jesús subió a una montaña y llamó a los que él quiso; y ellos vinieron a él. 14 De entre todos seleccionó a doce para que estuvieran siempre con él y salieran a predicar. A estos los llamó apóstoles, 15 y les dio autoridad para echar fuera demonios. 16 Aquellos doce fueron: Simón (a quien llamó Pedro), 17 Jacobo y Juan (hijos de Zebedeo, a quienes Jesús les puso el apodo de Boanerges, es decir, Hijos del Trueno), 18 Andrés, Felipe, Bartolomé, Mateo, Tomás, Jacobo (hijo de Alfeo), Tadeo, Simón el zelote 19 y Judas Iscariote (el que lo traicionó). 20 Luego Jesús entró en una casa a la que acudió tanta gente que ni siquiera pudieron comer él y sus discípulos. 21 Los familiares de Jesús, al enterarse de lo que estaba pasando, salieron a buscarlo porque creían que se había vuelto loco. 22 Los maestros de la ley que habían llegado de Jerusalén decían: «Los demonios lo obedecen porque tiene a Beelzebú, el príncipe de los demonios». 23 Jesús los llamó y les habló en parábolas: «¿Cómo puede Satanás echar fuera a Satanás? 24 Si un reino está dividido y los distintos bandos luchan entre sí, pronto desaparecerá. 25 Si un hogar está dividido contra sí mismo, se destruirá. 26 Y si Satanás pelea contra sí mismo y se divide, no podrá mantenerse y, entonces, ¿en qué irá a parar? 27 Nadie puede entrar en la casa de alguien fuerte y despojarlo de sus bienes si primero no lo ata. Sólo entonces podrá robar su casa. 28 Les aseguro que todos los pecados y blasfemias se les perdonarán a todos por igual. 29 Pero la blasfemia contra el Espíritu Santo nunca tendrá perdón, pues será un pecado de consecuencias eternas». 30 Así respondió Jesús a la acusación de que tenía un espíritu inmundo. 31 Cuando la madre y los hermanos de Jesús llegaron, se quedaron afuera y le enviaron un recado para llamarlo, 32 ya que había mucha gente sentada alrededor de él. ―Tu madre y tus hermanos están afuera y quieren verte —le dijeron. 33 ―¿Quién es mi madre? ¿Quiénes son mis hermanos? —replicó Jesús. 34 Y mirando a los que estaban a su alrededor, añadió: ―Estos son mi madre y mis hermanos. 35 Cualquiera que hace la voluntad de Dios es mi hermano, mi hermana y mi madre.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 3:27 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book V, Chapter XIX)

    For when Satan is bound, man is set free; since "none can enter a strong man's house and spoil his goods, unless he first bind the strong man himself." The Lord therefore exposes him as speaking contrary to the word of that God who made all things, and subdues him by means of the commandment.

  2. Quotes verse 3:27 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XX, Chapters 6–7)

    The Lord Jesus Christ Himself says, "No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man" --meaning by the strong man the devil, because he had power to take captive the human race; and meaning by his goods which he was to take, those who had been held by the …

    Whereas, if they were in discord, neither could this have been pointed out, and the doctrine itself had long since been brought to nought: "for every kingdom," saith He, "divided against itself shall not stand." But now even in this shines forth the might of the Spirit, namely, in that it prevailed on these men, engaged as they were in …

  5. Quotes verse 3:28 Augustine of Hippo, Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament (Sermon XXI)

    But forasmuch as it is first said, "All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men;" which in another Evangelist is also thus expressed, "All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewithsoever they shall blaspheme;" without doubt, that blasphemy also which is spoken against the Father is included in that general expression; and …
