Commentary on Mark 3:22
Scribes from Jerusalem accused: 'He hath Beelzebub, and by the prince of the devils casteth he out devils.' This blasphemous charge attributes Jesus' exorcisms to satanic power. 'Beelzebub' (Βεελζεβούλ) derives from Ba'al Zebub ('lord of flies'), Philistine god (2 Kings 1:2), here identified with Satan. The accusation is absurd—Satan casting out Satan—yet reveals hardened hearts desperately rationalizing undeniable miracles. When unable to deny power, opponents attribute it to evil. This leads to teaching on blasphemy against Holy Spirit (vv. 28-29).
