Exorcising the blind and mute man

Exorcising the blind and mute man is one of the miracles of Jesus in the Gospels.

[1] It appears in Matthew 12:22-32, Luke 11:14-23 and Mark 3:20-30.

[2][3][4] According to the Gospels, Jesus healed a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute, so that he could both talk and see.

Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come."

Matthew 12:25-32 Arnold Fruchtenbaum argues that since Jewish exorcists would ask for the demon's name as part of their procedure, the tradition had developed that only the Messiah would be able to exorcise a mute spirit.
