Jesus commanded the unclean spirit to come out from the man! Jesus asked him: What is your name? He answered: Legion for many demons had entered into him. They pleaded with him that he would not command them to depart into the abyss. There was a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain. They entreated him that he would allow them to enter into them. He gave them permission. The demons came out from the man and entered into the swine. The herd rushed down the hill into the lake, and was drowned. The herdsmen saw what happened and rushed to the city to tell others. They went out to see what happened. They came to Jesus and found the man who had been demon possessed. He was clothed, in his right mind and sitting at the feet of Jesus. They were afraid. They then learned how he was possessed with demons and became whole. The people of the country of the Gerasenes asked Jesus to depart. They were very much afraid. So he boarded a boat and left. The man who once had demons asked him if he could go with him. Jesus sent him away saying: Return to your house and declare the great things God has done for you. He went throughout the whole city telling the great things Jesus had done for him.
