This story is unusual because we have two distinct parts. The first part focusses on the advice Jesus gives his disciples and the second part focusses upon their return. When the 72 return,, they are rejoicing after what appears to be a most successful mission.. They are excited about what they saw. It is noteworthy that the first thing the 72 disciples share is about their power. The evil spirits were subservient to them. Jesus redirects them and points out that they should be more excited as their names are listed in heaven. Yes, its power over evil but we are still talking about power. I am reminded of the phrase attributed to Lord Acton in 1887, "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely". Lord Acton was a 19th-century British historian and moralist. Jesus was aware that power can undermine spiritual growth.
