The Holy Gospel According to Matthew 8
The Demoniacs of Gerasenes
Mark 5:1; Luke 8:26, etc.
28 And when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gerasenes, two demon-possessed men came out of the tombs to meet him. They were so violent that no one could pass that way.
29 And behold, they cried out, “What have you to do with us, Jesus, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?”
30 Now a large herd of pigs was feeding some distance away.
31 And the demons begged him, saying, “If you cast us out, permit us to go into the herd of pigs.”
32 And he said to them, “Go.” So they came out and went into the herd of pigs; and behold, the whole herd of pigs rushed down the steep bank into the sea and drowned in the waters.
33 The swineherds ran off, and going into the city, they told everything that had happened to the demon-possessed men.
34 And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus, and when they saw him, they begged him to leave their region.
