SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:20
Mas si por el dedo de Dios echo yo fuera los demonios, cierto el Reino de Dios ha llegado a vosotros.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 11:20
Verse 20. Finger of God] See on Exod. viii. 19.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 14-26 - Christ's thus casting out the devils, was really the destroying of their power. The heart of every unconverted sinner is the devil' palace, where he dwells, and where he rules. There is a kind of peac in the heart of an unconverted soul, while the devil, as a strong ma armed, keeps it. The sinner is secure, has no doubt concerning the goodness of his state, nor any dread of the judgment to come. But observe the wonderful change made in conversion. The conversion of soul to God, is Christ's victory over the devil and his power in tha soul, restoring the soul to its liberty, and recovering his ow interest in it and power over it. All the endowments of mind of bod are now employed for Christ. Here is the condition of a hypocrite. The house is swept from common sins, by a forced confession, as Pharaoh's by a feigned contrition, as Ahab's; or by a partial reformation, a Herod's. The house is swept, but it is not washed; the heart is no made holy. Sweeping takes off only the loose dirt, while the sin tha besets the sinner, the beloved sin, is untouched. The house i garnished with common gifts and graces. It is not furnished with an true grace; it is all paint and varnish, not real nor lasting. It wa never given up to Christ, nor dwelt in by the Spirit. Let us take hee of resting in that which a man may have, and yet come short of heaven The wicked spirits enter in without any difficulty; they are welcomed and they dwell there; there they work, there they rule. From such a awful state let all earnestly pray to be delivered.

20. Is come upon you. See on Matt. xii. 28.
Robertson's NT Word Studies
11:20 {By the finger of God} (en daktulwi qeou). In distinction from the Jewish exorcists. #Mt 12:28 has "by the Spirit of God." {qen is come} (ara efqasen). fqanw in late Greek comes to mean simply to come, not to come before. The aorist indicative tense here is timeless. Note Ara (accordingly) in the conclusion (apodosis).
