The Pulpit Commentary - Luke 8:37

Then the whole multitude of the country of the Gadarenes round about besought him to depart from them; for they were taken with great fear: and he went up into the ship, and returned back again. The recital had no effect upon. the headmen of the neighbouring towns and villages. They were probably for the most part owners of similar herds of swine, perhaps sharers in nameless sins, all specially hateful to the Rabbi Jesus, whom they no doubt knew well by repute. But he was, they saw,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Luke 8:37-40

Jesus Christ: rejection and welcome. We have in these two passages a very striking contrast; we have in the one a very deliberate and consentaneous dismissal, and in the other a very cordial and unanimous reception of our Lord,—it is illustrative of the treatment he is now receiving at the hands of men.

The Pulpit Commentary - Luke 8:38

Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying . The restored man longed to remain with his Deliverer, but this was not permitted—the great Teacher bade him stay behind in his own country.

It required special power, and it conferred a boon of the highest order. We look at— I. THE GREATER KINDNESSES WE RECEIVE FROM GOD .

Luke 8:26-39. See the contents of these verses explained at large, on Matthew 8:28-34; and Mark 5:1-17. I beseech thee, torment me not Let me continue where I am, and do not, before my time, cast me into the place of torments.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Luke 8:26-39

58. Demon power overcome at Gadara (Matthew 8:28-34; Mark 5:1-20; Luke 8:26-39)Another place that Jesus visited was the district to the east and south of the Lake of Galilee known as Gadara. The people were mainly Gentiles and were known as Gadarenes (sometimes as Gerasenes, after the chief town of the district, or even Gergesenes, after another local town) (Matthew 8:28; Mark 5:1).
