As the Rabbi left his home one day, a mute, demon-afflicted man was brought to him. After the demon was driven out, the mute man spoke; and the crowds were amazed [because it was believed to be impossible to drive the demon out of a mute man], and were saying, "Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel."

But the Rabbi's opponents were saying, "He casts out the demons by the prince of demons."  He went through all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of G-d, and healing every kind of disease and every kind of sickness.  Seeing the people, he felt compassion for them, because they were distressed and dispirited like sheep without a shepherd.
