30 He said this because they were saying, "He has an impure spirit."
30 Because they said, He hath an unclean spirit.
30 for they were saying, "He has an unclean spirit."
30 He gave this warning because they were accusing him of being in league with Evil.
30 because they said, "He has an unclean spirit."
30 He told them this because they were saying, "He's possessed by an evil spirit."
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Mark 3:30
Commentary on Mark 3:22-30
(Read Mark 3:22-30)
It was plain that the doctrine of Christ had a direct tendency to break the devil's power; and it was as plain, that casting of him out of the bodies of people, confirmed that doctrine; therefore Satan could not support such a design. Christ gave an awful warning against speaking such dangerous words. It is true the gospel promises, because Christ has purchased, forgiveness for the greatest sins and sinners; but by this sin, they would oppose the gifts of the Holy Ghost after Christ's ascension. Such is the enmity of the heart, that unconverted men pretend believers are doing Satan's work, when sinners are brought to repentance and newness of life.
