See them side by side

Luke 4:31-37

31And he went down to Capernaum, a town of Galilee. And he was teaching them on the Sabbath. 32And they were astonished at his teaching, because his word was with authority. 33And in the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice, 34“Ah! What have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God!” 35And Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” And when the demon had thrown him down in the middle, it came out of him, doing him no harm. 36And amazement came upon all, and they were talking with one another, saying, “What is this word, that with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out?” 37And a report about him was going out into every place of the surrounding region.

Mark 1:21-28

21And they go into Capernaum. And at once on the Sabbath he was teaching in the synagogue. 22And they were astonished at his teaching, for he was teaching them as one who has authority, and not as the scribes. 23And at once there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out, 24saying, “What have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are, the Holy One of God!” 25And Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be silent, and come out of him!” 26And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, came out of him. 27And they were all amazed, so that they questioned one another, saying, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him.” 28And the report about him went out at once everywhere into all the surrounding region of Galilee.
