Across the lake from Galilee was a region called Gadara. For a long time there had been a man living there who wore no clothes. He didn’t live in a house, but stayed out among the tombs in the graveyard. People had often tried to chain him up to get him under control, but he simply broke the chains and continued to roam through the tombs, howling and cutting himself with rocks. He had a serious problem. He had been taken over by a bunch of evil spirits. God allowed evil and wicked spirits to take over people in those days so that Jesus could show people that he had power over the devil.

“What do you want of me, Jesus, son of the Most High God? I beg you, don’t torture me!” the evil spirits in the man yelled.
“What is your name?” Jesus asked the spirits.
“Our name is Legion because there are lots of us,” the spirits replied.
The spirits begged Jesus not to send them out of the region.
“See those pigs over there on the hillside,” the spirits said, “send us into them.”

“Get out of this man and go into the pigs!” Jesus commanded. And the spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs. Then the pigs all rushed headlong into the lake and drowned. Two thousand pigs drowned that day before the amazed eyes of their keepers. The keepers of the pigs ran into town and reported what had happened.

The people from town came out to see for themselves and when they saw the man who had been filled with demons sitting properly clothed and talking sensibly to Jesus, they were very afraid. They begged Jesus to leave their area. Someone with that much power was just too scary to have around.

As Jesus was leaving the area, the man who had been filled with demons ran to Him and begged to go with Him. But Jesus said, “No, you must go home and tell everyone what great things God has done for you.”
