The Key Word — δαιμονίζομαι, daimonizomaigenerated
The word δαιμονιζόμενον is a present participle form of δαιμονίζομαι, which means 'to be possessed by a demon.' It indicates a state of being under the influence of evil spirits, commonly associated with severe afflictions in the New Testament.
The participle form suggests ongoing action or condition, emphasizing the man's previous state before encountering Jesus. This term is significant in the context of exorcisms, as it describes the man's suffering and the dramatic change brought about by Jesus.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study references the Berean Standard Bible (BSB), which uses possessed to describe the man's condition. Other translations, like the KJV and ASV, also use possessed, maintaining consistency in conveying the man's previous affliction.
Where translations differ is in the rendering of ἔρχονται. The BSB states came, while the ASV and KJV use come, reflecting different temporal perspectives. Additionally, the BSB uses clothed, while the FBV opts for dressed, showing a slight variation in word choice.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse is structured around the main verb ἔρχονται, they come, which governs the actions of the subjects. The sentence includes several phrases that describe what they see and the condition of the man, illustrating the transformation he underwent.
The clauses are interconnected, with the main clause introducing the action of coming to Jesus, followed by subordinate clauses detailing the observations made about the man, culminating in the reaction of the onlookers.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Greek word ἔρχονται (erchomai), meaning 'they come,' corresponds to the Hebrew בּוֹא (bōʾ), which also conveys the idea of coming or going. This choice emphasizes the action of approaching Jesus, setting the scene for the miraculous event that follows.
In this verse, θεωροῦσιν (theōreō), meaning 'they see,' aligns with the Hebrew חֲזָה (ḥāzāh), which also means to see or behold. This connection highlights the astonishment of the witnesses as they observe the transformed man sitting καθήμενον (kathēmai), which translates the Hebrew יָשַׁב (yāšaḇ), meaning 'sitting' or 'remaining.' The imagery of the man sitting calmly in his right mind contrasts sharply with his previous state of possession, further amplifying the impact of the miracle.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Mark 5:15 recounts how people came to Jesus and saw a man who had been possessed by many demons. They found him sitting calmly, dressed, and in his right mind, which filled them with fear.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
A legion indicates a large number of demons, suggesting the severity of the man's affliction before Jesus intervened.
Their fear likely stemmed from witnessing such a dramatic change and the power of Jesus, which challenged their understanding of the spiritual realm.
Sitting and being clothed symbolize peace and restoration, contrasting his previous chaotic state, indicating that he was now in control of himself.
This event demonstrates Jesus' authority to command demons, showcasing His divine power and ability to restore individuals from spiritual bondage.

- In what areas of my life do I need Jesus' healing and restoration?
- How can I respond to the transformative power of Jesus in my own life?
- What does it mean for me to be 'in my right mind' in the context of my faith?
- How can I share my experiences of Jesus' power with others who may be struggling?

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
et veniunt ad Jesum : et vident illum qui a dæmonio vexabatur, sedentem, vestitum, et sanæ mentis, et timuerunt.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.
ܘܐܬܘ ܠܘܬ ܝܫܘܥ ܘܚܙܐܘܗܝ ܠܗܘ ܕܫܐܕܘܗܝ ܟܕ ܠܒܝܫ ܘܡܢܟܦ ܘܝܬܒ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܗ ܠܓܝܘܢ ܘܕܚܠܘ

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The Greek word ἔρχομαι (i.e., *erchomai*) means 'to come' or 'to go.' It is used in various contexts, often indicating arrival or return, and can apply to both people and events. The New Testament frequently employs this term, notably in references to the coming of the Messiah (e.g., Mt 11:3). Lexicons note its use with various prepositions to indicate direction or purpose.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

θεωρέω (theoreo) means to look at, gaze, or behold, often with a sense of contemplation or experience. It is used in various contexts in the New Testament, such as to perceive or discern something noteworthy. The word can also imply a mental consideration or experience, as seen in references like John 8:51. While the core meaning remains consistent, some sources note a lighter usage in certain contexts.

A tendency to use θεωρέω more lightly might be deduced from such passages as P Tebt I. 585 (B.c. 111) οὗτος οὖν θεωρήσας pe ds προσεδρεύοντα καθ᾽ ἡμέραν ὡσεὶ δεδίλανται, “seeing me in daily attendance he has as it were turned coward’ (Edd.), though ‘‘ watched” will translate it here ; 26. 61 (4)°9 (B.C. 118-7) ἠξίουν] . . . συνθεωρεῖσθαι, ““ copguir?,” and again 373 θεωρῆσίθαι (/. τεθεωρῆσ[θαι) ἐκ τῆς] γε[γεν]ημένης εἰκασίας μετὰ ταῦτα, ‘it was perceived from the subsequent estimate.” But whether the verb belonged to the Volkssprache (Blass N.T.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

Man
(1.) Heb. ‘Adam, used as the proper name of the first man. The name is derived from a word meaning “to be red,” and thus the first man was called Adam because he was formed from the red earth. It is also the generic name of the human race (Gen. 1:26, 27; 5:2; 8:21; Deut. 8:3). Its equivalents are the Latin homo and the Greek anthropos (Matt. 5:13, 16). It denotes also man in opposition to woman (Gen. 3:12; Matt. 19:10).
(2.) Heb. ‘ish, like the Latin vir and Greek aner, denotes properly a man in opposition to a woman (1 Sam. 17:33;
Four Hebrew terms are rendered "man" in the Authorized Version: Adam, the name of the man created in the image of God. It appears to be derived from adam , "he or it was red or ruddy," like Edom. This was the generic term for the human race. Ish , "man," as distinguished from woman, husband. Geber , "a man," from gabar , "to be strong," generally with reference to his strength. Methim , "men," always masculine. Perhaps it may be derived from the root muth , "he died."

The Greek word δαιμονίζομαι (i.e., *daimonizomai*) means to be possessed or afflicted by a demon or evil spirit. It is derived from δαίμων (i.e., *daimon*), and is used in the New Testament to describe individuals suffering from severe physical or mental ailments believed to be caused by demons. The term appears in various contexts, indicating a range of afflictions attributed to demonic possession.
δαιμονίζομαι; 1 aor. pass. ptep. δαιμονισθείς ; (Saluwv) ; to be under the power of a demon: ἄλλος κατ᾽ ἄλλην δαιμονίζεται τύχην, Philem. in Stob. ecl. phys. 1 p. 196; of the insane, Plut. symp. 7, 5, 4, and in other later auth. In the N. T. δαιμονιζόμενοι are persons afflicted with especially severe diseases, either bodily or mental (such as paralysis, blindness, deafness, loss of speech, epilepsy, ' melancholy, insanity, ete.), whose bodies in the opinion of the Jews demons (see δαιμόνιον) had entered, and so held possession of them as not only to afflict them with ills, but also to dethrone the reason and take its place themselves; accordingly the possessed were wont to express the mind and consciousness of the demons dwelling in them; and their cure was thought to require the expulsion of the demon — [but on this subject see B.D. Am. ed. s. ν. Demoniacs and reff. there; Weiss, Leben…

κάθημαι (kathemai) means to sit or be seated, and is used in various contexts including physical sitting, residing, or even metaphorically for remaining in a state. It appears in several New Testament verses such as Matthew 9:9 and Revelation 4:3. The word is derived from a combination of roots implying sitting down, and its usage spans both literal and figurative meanings.

Sitting
The attitude generally assumed in Palestine by those who were engaged in any kind of work. “The carpenter saws, planes, and hews with his hand-adze, sitting on the ground or upon the plank he is planning. The washerwoman sits by the tub; and, in a word, no one stands when it is possible to sit. Shopkeepers always sit, and Levi sitting at the receipt of custom (Matt. 9:9) is the exact way to state the case.”, Thomson, Land and Book.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The Greek word ἱματίζω (i̱matízo̱) means 'to clothe' and is derived from ἱμάτιον (himátion), which refers to a garment. It appears in the New Testament in Mark 5:15 and Luke 8:35, where it describes the act of dressing or being clothed. The word has been found in various ancient texts, indicating its use beyond the New Testament.

σωφρονέω means to be of sound mind, self-controlled, or temperate. It is built from the root σώφρων and covers a range of meanings from sanity to moderation in behavior. The New Testament uses it in contexts like Mark 5:15 and Romans 12:3, where it contrasts with extremes of behavior. Mounce notes it appears six times in the New Testament.
σω-φρονέω, -@; 1 aor. impv. σωφρονήσατε ; (σώφρων, 4. v-); fr. Tragg., Xen., Plat. down; to be of sound mind, i. 6. a. to be in one’s right mind: of one who has ceased δαιμονίζεσθαι, Mk. v.15; LK. viii. 35; opp. to ἐκστῆναι, 2 Co. y. 13, (the σωφρονῶν and paveis are contrasted in Plat. de rep. i. p. 331 ¢c.; σωφρονοῦσαι and μανεῖσαι, Phaedr. p. 244b.; ὁ μεμηνὼς - . - ἐσωφρόνησε, Apollod. 3, 5, 1, 6). b. to exercise self-control; i.e. a. to put a moderate estimate upon one’s self, think of one’s self soberly: opp. to ὑπερφρονεῖν, Ro. xii. 3. B. to curb one’s passions, Tit. ii. 6; joined with νήφω (as in Leian. Nigrin. 6), [R. V. be of sound mind and be sober], 1 Pet. iv. 7.
σωφρονέω. We can add nothing from our sources to Preisigke’s (Worterd. s.v.) iv/A.D. citations for this verb, P Lips I. 397 and PSI I. 417 and 33 σ]ωφρονῖν καὶ ἡσυχάζειν, where the meaning is ‘‘am of sound mind,” ‘am discreet,” as in the NT occurrences (Mk 51° a/.). See also Xen. Oecov. vil. 14 ἐμὸν δ᾽ ἔφησεν ἡ μήτηρ ἔργον εἶναι σωφρονεῖν, the reference being to prudence in household management.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

The Greek word ἔχω, transliterated as echō, means 'to have' or 'to hold' and is used in various contexts, including possession, ability, and condition. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often relating to physical possession or metaphorical concepts like keeping faith or emotions. Notably, it can also refer to being pregnant, as seen in Matthew 1:18. The entries do not show significant disagreement.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word λεγιών (lemma: legeōn) means 'legion' and is derived from Latin. It refers to a Roman military unit and is used in the New Testament to signify a very large number, appearing in passages such as Matthew 26:53, Mark 5:9, 15, and Luke 8:30. The spelling λεγιών is consistently found in these texts.

Legion
A regiment of the Roman army, the number of men composing which differed at different times. It originally consisted of three thousand men, but in the time of Christ consisted of six thousand, exclusive of horsemen, who were in number a tenth of the foot-men. The word is used (Matt. 26:53; Mark 5:9) to express simply a great multitude.
the chief subdivision of the Roman army, containing about 6000 infantry, with a contingent of cavalry. The term does not occur in the Bible in its primary sense, but appears to have been adopted in order to express any large number, with the accessory ideas of order and subordination. (Matthew 26:53; Mark 5:9)
The number in a Roman legion varied at different periods, from three thousand to more than twice that number. In the time of Christ a legion contained six thousand, besides the cavalry. There were ten cohorts in each legion; which were divided each into three maniples or bands, and these into two centuries containing one hundred men each. In the Bible a legion means a number indefinitely large. The Savior cured a demoniac who called himself "Legion" as if possessed my myriads of demons, Mr 5:9. The expression, "twelve legions of angels," Mt 26:53, illustrate the immensity of the heavenly host, and their zealous devotion to Christ.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

φοβέω is derived from φόβος and primarily means to frighten or to be alarmed. It covers a range of meanings from being terrified to having reverential fear, as seen in various New Testament passages like Matthew 10:31 and Luke 1:50. The word is used in both active and passive forms, but in the New Testament, it appears only in the passive sense.
