1658. Once conquered, the evil and hellish spirits pleaded for life, and did not care about anything else. But the meaning of the details recorded in verses 21-24 is that the Lord took nothing from them because evils and falsities did not provide Him with any strength, and that the spirits were placed under the power of good spirits and angels.
