Luke 11:24-26

The parable of the unclean spirit cast out and returning : given by Mt. in connection with the demand for a sign (Luke 12:43 ff.). Lk.'s version differs from Mt.'s chiefly in minute literary variations. Two omissions are noticeable: (1) the epithet σχολάζοντα in the description of the deserted house (a probable omission, the word bracketed in W. and H [104]), (2) the closing phrase of Mt.'s version: οὕτως ἔσται καὶ τῇ γενεᾷ τ. τ. πονηρᾷ. On the import of the parable vide on Mt., ad loc.
