19:11 The power of the master’s message
11 And God was doing incredible miracles through Paul 12 such that even if handkerchiefs or aprons that had touched his skin were placed on top of any person who was sick or troubled with demons, then they would recover and the evil spirits would leave them. 13 But some of the Jewish exorcists going around attempted to use the name of Yeshua to drive out evil spirits by telling them, “I am imploring you all by Yeshua that Paul preaches about.” 14 Seven sons of the Jewish chief priest, Sceva were doing this.
15 But the evil spirit would answer them saying, “I know Yeshua and I recognise Paul, but who are you?”
16 Then the man who had the evil spirit would jump on them and beat them up so they’d end up escaping out of the house naked and wounded. 17 When everyone in Ephesus heard about this, both Jews and Greeks were frightened, and the name of Yeshua the master was being honoured. 18 Many of the people who believed in Yeshua came and confessed their sins and wrong practices. 19 Lots of the people who’d practiced magic brought their scrolls and burnt them in front of the others. When the values of all of these were added up, it was huge—worth around 50,000 silver coins. 20 So that was how the master’s message had a powerful effect and won over many people.
