For from many of those that had unclean spirits, they came out, crying with. loud voice: and many that were palsied, and that were lame, were healed.

'CRYING WITH. LOUD VOICE'-The demons had cried out and confessed the Deity of Christ (Mark 3:11; Luke 4:41). But this may have been. cry of anguish or rage as they were cast out. Notice once again how the Biblical writers place. distinction between physical illness and demon possession.
