Introduction 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Matthew Luke
Mark 5
5:1 And
1
they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the
a
Gadarenes.
(
1) Many hold the virtue of Christ in admiration,
and yet they will not lose even the least thing they have in order to redeem
it.
(
a)
See Matthew
8:30
5:2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately
there met him out of the tombs a man
b
with an unclean spirit,
(
b) Literally, "in an unclean spirit";
now they are said to be in the spirit because the spirit holds them tightly
locked up, and as it were bound.
5:7
And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus,
[thou] Son of the most high God? I
c
adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
(
c) That is, assure me by an oath that you will
not vex me.
5:10 And he
d
besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
(
d) The demon that was the spokesperson of the
many.
5:11 Now there was there nigh unto the
e
mountains a great herd of swine feeding.
(
e) This whole country is for the most part very
hilly, for the mountains of Galeed run through it.
5:13 And forthwith Jesus gave
them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and
the herd ran violently down a steep place into the
f
sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.
(
f) Strabo in the sixteenth book says that in
Gadaris there is a standing pool of very polluted water, which if beasts
taste, they shed their hair, nails, or hooves and horns.
5:22
And,
g behold, there cometh one of the
rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his
feet,
(
g) The whole company did not assemble without
any structure, but in every synagogue there were certain men who governed the
people.
5:25 2
And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood twelve years,
(
2) Jesus being touched with true faith, although
it is but weak, heals us by his virtue.
5:36
3 As soon as Jesus heard the word that
was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only
believe.
(
3) By faith fathers apprehended the promises of
life even for their children.
5:40
4 And they laughed him to scorn. But
when he had put them all out, he taketh the father and the mother of the damsel,
and them
b that were with him, and
entereth in where the damsel was lying.
(
4) Such as mock and scorn Christ are unworthy to
be witnesses of his goodness.
(
b) The three disciples.
