Matthew 12:29 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

Or else how can one enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strong man? and then he will spoil his house.

Ver. 29. A strong man's house, &c.] The devil is strong, but overpowered by Christ. He hath forcibly delivered us from the power of darkness, snatched us out of the Devil's danger; ερρυσατο, Col 1:13 so that, though he shake his chain at us, he cannot fasten his fangs in us. Stronger is he that is in the saints, than he that is in the world. Through Christ we shall overcome him,Romans 8:37 .
