'Hogs' in the Bible

“Do not give that which is holy to dogs, and do not throw your pearls before pigs, for they will trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.

Some distance from them a large herd of pigs was grazing.

The demons began begging Him, “If You drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”

And He said to them, “Go!” So they came out [of the men] and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea and died in the water.

Now there was a large herd of pigs grazing there on the mountain.

And the demons begged Him, saying, “Send us to the pigs so that we may go into them!”

Jesus gave them permission. And the unclean spirits came out [of the man] and entered the pigs. The herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the sea; and they were drowned [one after the other] in the sea.

Those who had seen it described [in detail] to the people what had happened to the demon-possessed man, and [told them all] about the pigs.

So he went and forced himself on one of the citizens of that country, who sent him into his fields to feed pigs.

He would have gladly eaten the [carob] pods that the pigs were eating [but they could not satisfy his hunger], and no one was giving anything to him.
