Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Mark 5:13

_ _ And forthwith Jesus gave them leave — In Matthew (Matthew 8:32) this is given with majestic brevity — “Go!” The owners, if Jews, drove an illegal trade; if heathens, they insulted the national religion: in either case the permission was just.

_ _ And the unclean spirits went out — of the man.

_ _ and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently — rushed.

_ _ down a steep place — down the hanging cliff.

_ _ into the sea (they were about two thousand) — The number of them is given by this graphic Evangelist alone.

_ _ and were choked in the sea — “perished in the waters” (Matthew 8:32).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

(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.
