Glory to Jesus Christ! Glory for ever!

Slava Isusu Christu! Slava i vo viki!

From the Fathers…

St. Jerome
Note that it was not the suffering victim but the demon who had to be directly
rebuked. It may be that he indirectly rebuked the boy and the demon went out of
him because it was owing to his sins that the demon had oppressed him.
