Contextual Overview
22 And the scribes that came down from Jerusalem said, He has Beelzebul, and, By the prince of the demons he casts out the demons. 23 And he called them to him, and said to them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan? 24 And if a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom can't stand. 25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. 26 And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he can't stand, but has an end. 27 But no one can enter into the house of the strong [man], and spoil his goods, except he first binds the strong [man]; and then he will spoil his house. 28 Truly I say to you, All their sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and their blasphemies by whichever they shall blaspheme: 29 but whoever shall blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin: 30 because they said, He has an unclean spirit.
