22The scribes who had come from Jerusalem said, “He is possessed by Beelzebul,”[O][3:22] By Beelzebul: see note on Mt 10:25. Two accusations are leveled against Jesus: (1) that he is possessed by an unclean spirit, and (2) by the prince of demons he drives out demons. Jesus answers the second charge by a parable (Mk 3:24–27) and responds to the first charge in Mk 3:28–29. and “By the prince of demons he drives out demons.”
