Context — The Authority of Jesusgenerated
Luke 9:49 presents a moment where John informs Jesus about an individual casting out demons in His name. This moment reflects the disciples' concern for their group and their understanding of authority in ministry. Jesus' response emphasizes inclusivity in His mission, as He teaches them that anyone not opposing them is on their side. This passage encourages a broader view of who can act in Jesus' authority.

The Key Word — ἐκβάλλω, ekballōgenerated
The word ἐκβάλλω is a present active participle meaning 'casting out' or 'expelling.' It is derived from the prefix ἐκ (out) and the root βάλλω (to throw). This term is often used in the context of driving out demons, as seen in various passages throughout the New Testament.
In this verse, it describes the action of expelling demons, which is a significant aspect of Jesus' ministry. The participle form indicates that this action is ongoing or habitual, emphasizing the authority with which the individual is acting.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In the Berean Standard Bible, the phrase 'casting out demons' is used, which is consistent across several translations like the ASV, WEB, and YLT. The KJV and BBE use 'casting out devils' and 'driving out evil spirits,' respectively, showing a slight variation in terminology but maintaining the same essential meaning.
Where the translations differ is in the rendering of the term for 'he follows.' The DBY translates it as 'he follows,' while others like the LSV and WEB simplify it to 'follow.'
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb in the verse is εἶπεν, said, which governs the entire statement made by John. The structure includes a noun phrase as the subject ('John') and multiple clauses that provide details about what John saw and the action taken.
The verse is organized around John's statement, with subordinate clauses explaining the action of casting out demons and the reason they tried to stop the individual. This hierarchical structure illustrates the flow of thought from John's observation to the disciples' response.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Greek term ἐκβάλλω appears in the Septuagint, particularly in contexts relating to expelling or driving out, such as in גָּרַשׁ (H1644), which means 'to drive out.' This connection emphasizes the continuity of the concept of authority in both the Old and New Testaments.
The use of δαιμόνια in this verse corresponds to the Hebrew term for evil spirits, reinforcing the understanding of supernatural opposition that the biblical authors address.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Luke 9:49 shows John telling Jesus that they saw someone casting out demons in His name. They tried to stop this person because he was not part of their group. This moment illustrates the disciples' concerns about authority and inclusion in Jesus' ministry.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Casting out demons in Jesus' name signifies acting with His authority and power, as seen throughout the Gospels.
John's concern likely stemmed from a desire to protect their group identity and the authority of Jesus, as they believed only those closely following Him should perform such acts.
Jesus tells John not to stop the man, indicating that anyone not opposing them is on their side, thus broadening the understanding of who can act in His name.
This interaction teaches us about inclusivity in ministry and the importance of recognizing others who act in faith, even if they are not part of our immediate group.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- How can I recognize and support those who serve in Jesus' name, even if they are not part of my immediate community?
- What does it mean for me to act in Jesus' authority in my own life?
- In what ways can I be more inclusive in my understanding of who can serve God?
- How can I learn from John's initial reaction to the man casting out demons?

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
Respondens autem Joannes dixit : Præceptor, vidimus quemdam in nomine tuo ejicientem dæmonia, et prohibuimus eum : quia non sequitur nobiscum.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

The Greek word ἀποκρίνομαι (apokrinomai) is built from the prefix ἀπο- and the root κρίνω, meaning to separate or distinguish. It primarily means to answer or reply, often in a context where a response is expected. In the New Testament, it appears in various forms, particularly in legal or conversational contexts, such as in Matthew 3:15 and John 1:49.

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

δέ

a primary particle (adversative or continuative); but, and,
etc.:--also, and, but, moreover, now (often unexpressed in English).
δέ
Cj.
but, on the other hand, and
δέ de 2x
a conjunctive particle, marking the superaddition of a clause, whether in opposition or in continuation, to what has preceded, and it may be variously rendered but, on the other hand, and, also, now, etc.; καὶ δέ, when there is a special superaddition in continuation, too, yea, etc. It sometimes is found at the commencement of the apodosis of a sentence, Acts 11:17. It serves also to mark the resumption of an interrupted discourse, 2 Cor. 2:10; Gal. 2:6
δέ but: conjunctive Particle, with adversative force: it commonly answers to μέν, and may often be rendered by while, whereas, on the other hand, v. μέν:— but μέν is often omitted, δέ being used merely to pass on from one thing to another; ὣς Ἀχιλεὺς θάμβησεν, θάμβησαν δὲ καὶ ἄλλοι Il.; etc.; κινεῖ κραδίην κινεῖ δὲ χόλον Eur.
δέ is often redundant,
to introduce the apodosis, where it may be rendered by then, yet, εἰ δέ κε μὴ δώωσιν, ἐγὼ δέ κεν αὐτὸς ἕλωμαι if they will not give it, then I will take it, Il.; so at in Lat., si tu oblitus es, at Dii meminerint Catull.
to resume after interruption caused by a parenthesis, where it may be rendered by I say, now, so then, Hdt.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,

The Greek word Ἰωάννης (transliterated as Ioannes) is a proper noun meaning "John." It is derived from the Hebrew name יוֹחָנָן (Yochanan) and refers to several biblical figures, including John the Baptist, John the Apostle, John the father of Peter, and John Mark. The New Testament frequently uses this name, appearing in various forms across different verses.

In dealing with synonyms of the N. T. we plainly need not concern ourselves with such earlier, or even contemporary, uses of the words which we are discriminating, as lie altogether outside of the N. T. sphere, when these uses do not illustrate, and have not affected, their Scriptural employment. It follows from this that all those contemptuous uses of λαλεῖν as to talk at random, as one ἀθυρόστομος, or with no door to his lips, might do; of λαλιά, as chatter («Kpacia λόγου ἄλογος, Plato, Defin. 416)—for I cannot believe that we are to find this at John iv. 42—may be dismissed and set aside. The antithesis in the line of Eupolis (Meineke, /ragm. Com. Gr. p. 174), Λαλεῖν ἄριστος, ἀδυνατώτατος λέγειν, does little or nothing to illustrate the matter in hand. The distinction which indeed exists between the words may in this way be made clear. There are two leading aspects under which speech…

955 occurrences in the New Testament, rendered 73 different ways. The commonest English word for it is not its meaning — it is one translator's decision, repeated.
The Greek word ἐπιστάτης (i.e., *epistates*) is derived from the verb ἐφίστημι and generally means a master or commander. It appears in the New Testament exclusively in the Gospel of Luke, where it is used to address Jesus, reflecting authority rather than a formal teaching role. The term also has broader meanings, including overseer or superintendent, as seen in various contexts in classical literature.
ἐπιστάτης, -ου, ό
(< ἐφίστημι),
[in LXX: IV Ki 25:19, Je 36(29):26 52:25 (פָּקִיד), II Ch 31:12 (נָגִיד), II Mac 5:22, etc. ;]
a chief, commander, master: Lk 5:5 8:24, 45 9:33, 49 17:13 (cf. Dalman, Words, 336 ff.).†
ἐπιστάτης, -ov, ὁ, (ἐφίστημι), any sort of a superintendent or overseer (often so in prof. writ., and several times in Sept., as Ex. i. 11; v.14; 1 K. v.16; 2 K. xxv. 19; Jer. xxxvi. (xxix.) 26; 2 Chr. ii 2; xxxi.12); a master, used in this sense for "3 by the disciples [ef. Lk. xvii. 13] when addressing Jesus, who called him thus “ not from the fact that he was a teacher, but because of his authority” (Bretschneider) ; found only in Luke: v. 5; Vili. 24,45; ix. 33,49; xvii. 13.
ἐπιστάτης in its original sense of ‘‘ superintendent,”’ ‘© overseer,” found in a number of different connexions, e.g. ἐ. εἰρήνης κώμης (P Oxy I. 642—iii/iv a.D.), ἐ. τοῦ ἱεροῦ (P Par 26727— B.C. 163) and τῶν ἱερῶν (P Leid Gt—end of ii/B.c.), ἐτῆς πόλεως (BGU III. 1006°—iii/B.c.), & τῶν φυλακιτῶν (P Tebt I. 5159. 5. Ὁ. 118). For further particulars regarding ἐ. τῆς κώμης, a local justice, see Archiv iv. p. 35 fi, and for ἐ. τοῦ ἱεροῦ Preisigke Prinz-Joachim-Ostr p. 60 ff., and for the word generally Preisigke Fachworter, p. 89 f. The verb ἐπιστατέω is found in P Oxy XII. 14137 (A.D. 270-5). In connexion with the Lukan use of the subst. applied to Jesus instead of the Hebrew Ῥαββί in the sense of ‘Master,’ Rouffiac (Recherches, p. 56f.) refers to an ἐπιστάταν τῶν παίδων (JG XII. 1, 43), apparently a sort of headmaster, and to τὸν émurta[tny τὸ]ν τῶν ἐφήβῳν, whose duty it was τ[ὰς ψυχ]ὰς…

mas'-ter ('adhon, ba`al, rabbi; despotes, didaskalos, kurios, rhabbi): "Master," when the translation of 'adhon, "ruler," "lord" (Sir), often translated "lord," denotes generally the owner or master of a servant or slave (Ge 24:9, etc.; 39:2, etc.; Ex 21:4, etc.; De 23:15 bis; 2Sa 9:9,10 twice; Pr 30:10); elsewhere it is rather "lord" or "ruler" (often king, e.g. 1Sa 24:6,8; 26:16); in the plural 'adhonim, it is, as the rule, used only of God (but see Ge 19:2,18;

The Greek word οἶδα (i.e., *oida*) is derived from the root of εἶδον (i.e., *eidon*), meaning 'to see' or 'to perceive.' It primarily conveys the idea of knowing or having knowledge, often used in contexts where one has seen or understood something. The New Testament employs it in various constructions, indicating knowledge of things, people, or concepts.

Egyptian saws, so far as has yet been discovered, are single-handed. As is the case in modern Oriental saws, the teeth usually incline toward the handle, instead of away from it like ours. They have, in most cases, bronze blades, apparently attached to the handles by leathern thongs. No evidence exists of the use of the saw applied to stone in Egypt, but we read of sawn stones used in the temple. (1 Kings 7:9) The saws "under" or "in" which David is said to have placed his captives were of iron. The expression in (2 Samuel 12:31) does not necessarily imply torture, but the word "cut" in (1 Chronicles 20:3) can hardly be understood otherwise.

τὶς is an enclitic indefinite pronoun meaning 'someone' or 'something.' It can refer to a certain person or object and appears in both singular and plural forms, such as τινός and τινες. The New Testament uses it in various contexts, including Luke 9:49 and Acts 5:25. It is related to the interrogative pronoun τίς, indicating its flexible use in questions and statements.

PREP PREPosition
A principal thing to notice about this preposition, which in the King James Version represents about 16 Hebrew and as many Greek words and prepositions, is that, in hundreds of cases (especially in the Old Testament, but frequently also in the New Testament) in the Revised Version (British and American) the rendering is changed to more exact forms ("to," "unto," "by," "upon," "at," "with," "among," "for," "throughout," etc.; compare e.g. Ge 6:16; 13:8; 17:7,9,12; 18:1; Ex 8:17; Le 1:9, etc.); while, nearly as often, "in" is substituted for divergent forms of the King James Version (e.g. Ge 2:14; 17:11; 31:54; 40:7; 49:17; Ex…

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

ὄνομα (onoma) means 'name' and can refer to the title or reputation of a person or thing. It appears in various contexts in the New Testament, such as indicating authority or character (e.g., Mt 10:41) and is often contrasted with the reality behind the name (e.g., Rev 3:1). The term can also signify a mere name or pretext, as seen in Mk 9:41.

nam (shem; onoma; Latin nomen (2 Esdras 4:1); verbs onomazo; Latin nomino (2 Esdras 5:26)): A "name" is that by which a person, place or thing is marked and known. In Scripture, names were generally descriptive of the person, of his position, of some circumstance affecting him, hope entertained concerning him, etc., so that "the name" often came to stand for the person. In Ac 1:15; Re 3:4, onoma stands for "persons"; compare Nu 26:53,55.

1. General:
The word for "name" in the Old Testament is shem (also the name of one of the sons of Noah). The etymology is uncertain, although it may be from shamah (obs.), "to set a mark"; shum is the Aramaic form. For the name as descriptive of the person see NAMES.…

The Greek word ἐκβάλλω, transliterated as ekballō, is composed of the prefix ἐκ (out) and βάλλω (to throw). It means to drive out, cast out, or expel, and is used in various contexts, including banishing individuals or sending forth. In the New Testament, it appears in passages like Matthew 15:17 and Mark 1:12, often relating to the expulsion of demons or sending out workers.

The Greek word δαιμόνιον (i.e., *daimonion*) is a neuter noun derived from the adjective δαιμόνιος and refers primarily to a demon or evil spirit. It can also denote a divine power or inferior deity, as seen in various contexts from the Old Testament to the New Testament, including references in Acts 17:18 and 1 Corinthians 10:20. The lexicons note its use for both heathen deities and malevolent spirits, with no significant disagreement among them.

Syl a24 13 (B.C, 210-5) τᾶς εἰς τὸ δαιμόνιον εὐσεβείας, and similarly 27015 (c.

Paul’s solitary τὸ θεῖον in Ac 1759 is the only NT passage which recalls this impersonal conception. The ‘‘Septuagint Memorial” from Hadrumetum of iii/a.p., published by Deissmann 2.5, p271 ff., opens with an adjuration to the demonic spirit of the tomb on which the spell was laid—opk({w σε, δαιμόνιον πνεῦμα τὸ ἐνθάδε κείμενον, τῷ ὀνόματι τῷ ἁγίῳ Αὠωθ κτλ., where the editor refers to the belief of post-biblical Judaism that the…

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition. It can function as a reflexive pronoun and appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts that highlight contrast or identity, such as in Luke 5:37 and John 2:25. The entries indicate that it can also be used in various grammatical constructions, including with articles to denote sameness.

The Greek word ὅτι (hoti) is a conjunction primarily meaning 'that' or 'because.' It introduces objective clauses, often following verbs of perception or declaration, and can also serve as a causal particle. The New Testament frequently employs it in this way, such as in Matthew 5:4-12. There is some variation in how lexicons describe its usage, particularly regarding its pleonastic function in direct discourse.
ὅτι [properly neut. of ὅστις], a conjunction [fr. Hom. down], (Lat. quod [ef.

The Greek word οὐ (transliterated as ou) is a primary negative particle meaning 'not' or 'no.' It is used to negate verbs or statements, often appearing in various forms depending on the following sound. In the New Testament, it frequently serves to deny facts and is distinct from another negative particle, μή (transliterated as mē), which is used for prohibitions or wishes.
οὐ, before a vowel with smooth breathing οὐκ, before one with rough breathing οὐχ (but improperly οὐχ ἰδού, Ac 2:7, WH, mg.; cf. WH, Intr., § 409; M, Pr., 44, 244),

ἀκολουθέω (akoloutheo) means to follow or accompany, particularly in the context of discipleship. It is derived from the word for 'following' and is often used in the New Testament to describe the act of following Jesus (e.g., Matthew 4:25). The verb typically takes a dative object, indicating the person being followed. There is a note of distinction in usage, as it replaces the verb ἕπομαι in later Greek.

The Greek word μετά (transliterated as meta) is a preposition that can mean 'with,' 'among,' or 'after,' depending on the case it governs (genitive, accusative, or sometimes dative). In the New Testament, it is used to indicate association or companionship, as in Mark 1:29, and to denote sequence in time or place, as seen in Hebrews 9:3. The entries do not show significant disagreement.
μετά, [on its neylect of elision before proper names beginning with a vowel, and before sundry other words (at least in Tdf.’s text) see Tdf. Proleg. p. 95; cf. WH. Intr. p- 146°; W.§ 5,1a.; B. p. 10], a preposition, akin to μέσος (as Germ. mit to Mitte, mitten) and hence prop. in the midst of, amid, denoting association, union, accompaniment; [but some recent etymologists doubt its kinship to μέσος ; some connect it rather with ἅμα, Germ. sammt, ef. Curtius § 212; Vaniéek p. 972]. It takes the gen. and ace. (in the Grk. poets also the dat.).

μετά
meta
a primary preposition (often used adverbially); properly, denoting
accompaniment; "amid" (local or causal); modified variously according
to the case (genitive association, or accusative succession) with
which it is joined; occupying an intermediate position between 575 or
1537 and 1519 or 4314; less intimate than 1722 and less close than
4862):--after(-ward), X that he again, against, among, X and,
+ follow, hence, hereafter, in, of, (up-)on, + our, X and
setting, since, (un-)to, + together, when, with (+ -out). Often used
in composition, in substantially the same relations of participation
or proximity, and transfer or sequence.

Read the full entry →ἐγώ. Deissmann (ZAZ p. 134 ff.) has drawn attention to the parallels to the solemn use of the first personal pronoun in the Fourth Gospel that may be adduced from inscriptions and magical texts. Thus in an inscr. in honour of Isis from Ios, written in ii/iii A.p., the contents of which are preChristian, we find —Elows ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ τ[ύρανν]ος πάσης χόρας.. ἐγὼ νόμους ἀνθρώποις ἐθέμην . . ἐγώ εἰμι Kpdvov θυγάτηρ πρεσβυτάτη α΄. And similarly in the magical papyrus P Lond 4645 (iv/a.p.) (=I. p. 69) ἐγώ εἰμι ὃ ἀκέφαλος δαίμων . . ἐγώ εἰμι ἡ ἀλήθεια ὁ μεισῶν ἀδικήματα γείνεσθαι ἐν τῷ κόσμῳ α΄. With the construction of the phrase τί ἐμοὶ καὶ σοί ; in Jn 24 we may compare BGU IV. 1141°8 (n.c. 14) ἐδίδουν αὐτῷ διαστολὰς μηδὲν αὐτῶι καὶ ἐκείνωι εἶναι : for its meaning see Ε΄. C.
