Sceva

Concise Bible Dictionary:

A Jew at Ephesus, a chief of the priests, whose seven sons sought by the name of Jesus to cast out a demon. The demon acknowledged that he knew Jesus and Paul, but demanded “Who are ye?” and then by means of the possessed man attacked them, so that they fled away naked and wounded (Acts 19:14-1614And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so. 15And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? 16And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. (Acts 19:14‑16)). Here Satan showed his power as the “strong man.” The One stronger than he would not let His power be used by these men.
