Commentary on Mark 5:14

Theological / Devotional

In the country. Literally, “in the farmlands,” as contrasted with “country,” meaning the entire region (see v. 10). On their way to the village of Gergesa, probably a short distance to the north of the precipice (see on v. 13), the swineherds might be expected to announce to all they met what had happened.
