18. They immediately left their nets and followed him.
19. As Jesus went on a little farther, he saw James and John, the sons of Zebedee. They were in a boat preparing their nets ⌊to go fishing⌋.
20. He immediately called them, and they left their father Zebedee and the hired men in the boat and followed Jesus.
21. Then they went to Capernaum. On the next day of worship, Jesus went into the synagogue and began to teach.
22. The people were amazed at his teachings. Unlike their experts in Moses’ Teachings, he taught them with authority.
23. At that time there was a man in the synagogue who was controlled by an evil spirit. He shouted,
24. “What do you want with us, Jesus from Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”
25. Jesus ordered the spirit, “Keep quiet, and come out of him!”
26. The evil spirit threw the man into convulsions and came out of him with a loud shriek.
