This begins an account of Jesus' sending out his twelve apostles to do his work.
## called his twelve disciples together ##
"summoned his twelve disciples"
## gave them authority ##
Be sure that the text clearly communicates that this authority was 1) to drive out unclean spirits and 2) to heal disease and sickness.
## drive them out ##
"make the unclean spirits leave"
## all kinds of disease and all kinds of sickness ##
"every disease and every sickness." The words "disease" and "sickness" are closely related but should be translated as two different words if possible. "Disease" is what causes a person to be sick. "Sickness" is the physical weakness or affliction that results from having a disease.
