For all the attempts to relegate the authority of Jesus Christ, each one would submit the Sovereign King to outside authority, a move that Jesus did not need to make.  Jesus is King over all.  No one, whether spiritual force or personal presence is able to override the authority of the Lord.  When the people in the synagogues heard Jesus teach, their spirit resonated with the understanding that they were hearing true authority.  They were hearing the authentic word of God spoken by the mouth of God, made plain to them.  Thus, as Jesus was approached with opportunities to heal, there was no issue in doing so.  Jesus had the authority that belongs to God alone to heal sickness and command the demons and spiritual dark forces.  Jesus had the authority to make the broken people whole.
