Luke 4:41 And thus, demons (= animistic influences) also kept on going out from many folks, as one by one of them were uttering cries or exclamations, and then saying, "You, Yourself, are God's Son!" And so, while speaking respectful directives, He was not permitting them to continue speaking, because (or: to continue sounding forth that) they had seen, and thus knew, Him to be the Christ (the Anointed One; = the Messiah). comment: note that Luke equates the terms "Christ" and "God's Son"

JMNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴¹ And thus, demons (= animistic influences) also kept on going out from many folks, [as] one by one [of them] were uttering cries or exclamations, and then saying, "You, Yourself, are God's Son!" And so, while speaking respectful directives, He was not permitting them to continue speaking, because (or: to continue sounding forth that) they had seen, and thus knew, Him to be the Christ (the Anointed One; = the Messiah).
