If it seems that I’m a bit irritated with the inanity of some of fellow “Scripture Scholars” and their fake “Messianic Secret,” well, you would be right.
Full disclosure, this Gospel passage is on exorcism. And I’m buried in exorcism cases. Some of my fellow “Scripture Scholars” would be the absolute worst assistants to have at an exorcism.

ARISE! LET US BE GOING! 
duh! – thanks for explaining this Father. I think I have been under the influence of some of those “Scripture Scholars” for too long. This was great. Called my daughter to relay your infamous line about ‘even when the demons are telling the truth, they are lying’ and to explain my newfound knowledge about this, and thanks be to God, she understood (and already knew) that they were mocking Jesus.
