Contextual Overview

22 And it came to passe on a certayne day, that he went into a shippe, and his disciples also: and he sayde vnto them, Let vs go ouer vnto the other syde of the lake. 23 And they lauched foorth: But as they sayled he fell a slepe, and there came downe a storme on the lake, and they were fylled [with water], and were in ieoperdie. 24 And they came to hym, and awoke hym, saying: Maister, Maister, we are lost. Then he arose, and rebuked the wynde, & the tempest of water, and they ceassed, and it waxed calme. 25 And he sayde vnto them: Where is your fayth? And they feared, and wondred among them selues, saying: Who is this? For he commaundeth both the wyndes & water, and they obey hym. 26 And they sayled vnto the region of the Gadarenites, which is ouer agaynst Galilee. 27 And when he went out to lande, there met hym out of the citie a certayne man, which had deuyls long tyme, and ware no clothes, neither abode in [any] house: but in graues. 28 When he sawe Iesus, and had cryed, he fell downe before hym, and with a loude voyce sayde: What haue I to do with thee Iesus, thou sonne of God most hyest? I beseche thee torment me not. 29 (For he commaunded the foule spirite to come out of the man: For oftentymes he had caught him, and he was bounde with chaynes, and kept with fetters: & he brake the bandes, and was caryed of the fiende into wildernesse.) 30 And Iesus asked hym, saying: What is thy name? And he sayde, Legion: because many deuyls were entred into hym. 31 And they besought hym, that he woulde not commaunde them, to go out into the deepe.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes,.... In Matthew 8:28 it is called the country of the Gergesenes,

Matthew 8:28- : as it is here, in the Arabic and Ethiopic versions; and "of the Gerasenes", in the Vulgate Latin; but the Syriac and Persic versions read, "of the Gadarenes", as in Mark 5:1.

Mark 5:1- :.

which is over against Galilee: from whence the ship launched, and Christ and his disciples came.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
