The Return of the Unclean Spirit^(A)

²⁴ “Whenever an unclean spirit goes out of a person, it wanders through dry places looking for a place to rest but doesn’t find any. So it says, ‘I will go back to my home that I left.’ ²⁵ When it gets back home, it finds it swept clean and put in order. ²⁶ Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they all go in and settle there. And so the final condition of that person is worse than the first.”
