4:41 You are the Son of God! This was a title for the Messiah (see 2 Sam 7:14; Pss 2:7; 89:26-27). Luke often links the titles “Christ” and “Son of God” (Luke 9:35; 22:66-71; Acts 9:20, 22). • he . . . refused to let them speak: Jesus often showed his authority over demons by silencing them. He wanted to reveal his identity in his own way, not through their announcement.
