# By the Jesus whom Paul proclaims
|
|
|
|
"Jesus" was a common name at the time, so these exorcists wanted people to know of whom they spoke.

# By the Jesus
|

This stands for the power and authority of Jesus. Alternate translation: "by the authority of Jesus" or "by the power of Jesus" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
