“And when the demon had been driven out, the man began to speak. The crowds were amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel!””
“Large crowds came to Him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and laid them at His feet, and He healed them.”
“Then a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute was brought to Jesus, and He healed the man so that he could speak and see.”
“The crowd was amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled restored, the lame walking, and the blind seeing. And they glorified the God of Israel.”
“The blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor.”
“When Jesus saw that a crowd had come running, He rebuked the unclean spirit. “You deaf and mute spirit,” He said, “I command you to come out and never enter him again.””
“Some people brought to Him a man who was deaf and hardly able to speak, and they begged Jesus to place His hand on him.”
“As they were leaving, a demon-possessed man who was mute was brought to Jesus.”
“The people were utterly astonished and said, “He has done all things well! He makes even the deaf hear and the mute speak!””
