• The reason of it was this: not only the Son of Man was working these miracles, but the power of the Holy Ghost was there too. Although Jesus might submit to humiliation, He could not but assert the glory of God. The Holy Spirit was putting forth these mighty deeds, and the unbelief that refused the testimony of the Spirit when Jesus was there, would be even stronger against it on His departure. (“Remarks on Matthew 12” by W. Kelly)
• “Blasphemy against the Holy Ghost.”Hardened opposers claimed that the power of the Lord was of Satan. (“Help on Hard Verses” by A.C. Brown)
