Commentaries:
Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
I have not a demon (egw daimonion ouk exw). This Jesus says calmly, passing by the reference to the Samaritans as beneath notice.
My Father (ton patera mou). As in John 2:16. He is not mad in claiming to honour God (cf. John 7:18). They were insulting the Father in insulting him (cf. John 5:23). On atimazw (a privative and timaw, to dishonour) see Luke 20:11.
