An exorcism is a religious rite for driving Satan or evil spirits out of a possessed person, place, or thing. |
The mother of a possessed little girl is talking to the recently arrived priest who is going to perform an exorcism. |
During the exorcism we asked her what organisation she had been initiated into and she wouldn't tell us but we managed to squeeze it out of her. |
The energumens, who were exorcized daily, were prevented by the daily exorcisms and sweeping duties from pursuing their usual callings. |
Had we stuck with the supernatural explanation, we would never have advanced beyond blood letting or exorcisms to get the evil spirits out. |
In Luke 11:19 other exorcists are mentioned within the framework of a discussion about the exorcisms of Jesus. |
