Lukas 8:33 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 8:33

Then went the devils out of the man
Being obliged by the power of Christ, sore against their wills, having had possession of him a long time:

and entered into the swine;
possessed them:

and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake;
that is of Gennesaret; or the sea, as the Syriac and Persic versions read; that is, the sea of Galilee, the same with the former: and were choked;
in the waters, and died, as the Ethiopic version adds.

Lukas 8:33 In-Context

31 And the shedim were entreating Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach, lest he might command them to depart into the abyss.

32 Now there was a herd of many chazirim feeding there on the mountain. And the shedim begged him that he might permit them to enter into those chazirim. And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach permitted the shedim.

33 And the shedim came out from the ish, and entered the chazirim, and the herd of chazirim rushed down the bank into the lake, and were drowned.

34 And when the herdsmen saw what had happened, they fled and reported it in the ir (town) and countryside.

35 And the people went out to see what had happened; and they came to him and found the ish from whom the shedim had gone out, and the ish was clothed and in his right mind, sitting at the feet of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach; and they were afraid.
