Dressing Down Demons: The Hebrew Word and Theology Behind Christ’s Rebuke of an Unclean Spirit in Mark 1

When Mark says Jesus “rebukes” an unclean spirit, he uses a Greek word that’s a doorway into some fascinating Old Testament theology. In this video on Mark 1:21-28, Chad Bird peels back the layers of this “rebuking” theology in the Hebrew, gives a brief overview of synagogues, and shows how unclean spirits fit in the broader chaos of this world—and how Jesus overcomes that chaos. Catch it in all this week’s video on “Reading the Gospels through Hebrew Eyes.”
