Definitions for Mark 5:1
Clarke's Mark 5:1 Bible Commentary
The Gadarenes - Some of the MSS. have Gergasenes, and some of them Gerasenes. Griesbach seems to prefer the latter. See the note on Matthew 8:28.
The Gadarenes were included within the limits of the Gergasenes. Dr. Lightfoot supposes that, of the two demoniacs mentioned here, one was of Gadara, and consequently a heathen, the other was a Gergesenian, and consequently a Jew; and he thinks that Mark and Luke mention the Gadarene demoniac because his case was a singular one, being the only heathen cured by our Lord, except the daughter of the Syrophoenician woman.
Barnes's Mark 5:1 Bible Commentary
See this account of the demoniacs fully explained in the notes at Matthew 8:28-34.
Wesley's Mark 5:1 Bible Commentary
5:1 Matthew 8:28 ; Lu 8:26.
