# And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul
"And if you say that I drive out demons by Beelzebul"
# Beelzebul
This name refers to the same person as "Satan" (verse 26).
# by whom do your sons drive them out?
Jesus uses another question to challenge the Pharisees. Alternate translation: "then you must say your followers also drive out demons by the power of Beelzebul. But you know this is not true." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])
# your sons
Jesus was speaking to the Pharisees. The phrase "your sons" refers to their followers. This was a common way of referring to those who follow teachers or leaders. Alternate translation: "your followers" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
This question can be translated as sentence. Alternate translation: "then your followers also drive out demons by Beelzebul." or "then you would have to say that your followers drive out demons by the power of Beelzebul."
# For this reason they will be your judges
"Because your followers cast out demons by the power of God, they prove that you are wrong about me."
