everything that they saw happen to the swine and about the lunatic. Some of
men of the Gadarenes went out first to see what happened then the Gadarenes
followed. The men came to Jesus and found the man who name was Legion,
dressed, well behaved and sitting at the feet of Jesus. They were afraid. Those
who were with Jesus told them how that lunatic was healed. How Jesus
commanded the unclean spirit to be healed of his lunacy and he was healed as
you see. The two men then told the Gadarenes who had arrived at that place and
they saw for themselves the man dressed, well behave and sitting at the feet of
Jesus. All the people of the Gadarenes asked him to leave them because they
were seized with great fear. They all began to urge him to leave their land. As
they went to the boat the man who was healed from lunacy begged him that he
might remain with him. Jesus would not permit him. He said to him go to your
own house; to your own people and declare what God has done for you. How he
had mercy on you and healed you. Jesus dismissed him. He went away and
preached in his own city what Jesus had done for him. He spread the word
throughout the boarders of Galilee and the 10 cities.

followers rose up and went with Jarus. The crowd of people who had gathered
outside a large multitude followed him and they pressed on him.
Women Issue of Blood Healed
Now a woman who disease of hemorrhage for twelve years and had spent all her
wealth. She suffered much at the hands of many doctors was not helped at all
nor healed by anybody but rather became worse. When she heard of the
healings of many sick people concerning Jesus she came through the dense
crowd from behind him. She was reasoning within herself if I can only touch his
garments. I will be healed and live. As she came near and touched the edge of
his garments; straightway her hemorrhage stopped and began to dry up. She felt
in her body that she was healed of her disease. Jesus instantly knew that virtue
had gone out of him and said who touched me? When all of those gathered
around him denied it. Peter and those who were with him said to him Teacher the
crowds are troubling you and pressing on you and yet you say who has touched
me. He said someone has touched me. I know that virtue has gone out of me. He
