Exegesis of Matthew 8:28-34






Introduction
            When we read Matthew chapter 8, and 9, we could see how great power and authority what Jesus has. The author of Matthew tries to show the authority of Jesus over all things. Especially, Matthew chapter 8:28-34 shows us His authority over the demons’ power. And the end of the story is quite shocked and astonished (32). And it raises some questions that why Jesus permits demons’ request and allows to be destroyed the herd of many pigs?
            In fact, it is difficult to answer those questions. There are many cases of such things like a great loss or disasters still happen in this time and in this world, but we could not find the answer why. But there is a clear thing that we know through the verse 31, that without the permission of Jesus, the evil spirits could not do and move out themselves from the human bodies to the pigs. Jesus has absolute authority over the demons. In addition, we know that He set the victims free with His mercy by casting out the demons. Therefore, Jesus has absolute power and authority and absolutely it is merciful to human who come to God through Jesus.
Establishing the Pericope
I want to build the pericope of Matthew 8: 28-34 on base of three elements that the change in setting, character, and of the theme, topic, or issue. First, The introductory sentence here “ And when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, two demon – possessed men met him, coming out of the tombs, so fierce that no one could pass that way..” (8:28), there has been a change of the setting.  The event of Jesus’ healing over two demon-possessed had happened different place and time with previous pericope. Previous event had


happened in the midst of the sea (24) but here, it happened in the country of the Gadarenes where is the other side of the place. And the time also different with previous passage. This event happened “..when he(Jesus) came to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes,”.
            Second, there was a change in character. Jesus as the main character, it didn’t change. But in the previous passage, focused on the disciples of Jesus, and Jesus was dealing with the faith of his disciple. But this passage, obviously, the character changed to two demon-possessed, and Jesus was dealing with demons.
            Actually, Matthew 8 speaks about the authority and power or the miracle of Jesus. And the previous passage shows us the authority of Jesus over the creation. This passage also shows us the authority and the power of Jesus, but the subject of His authority is different. We can see that this periscope shows us the authority of Jesus over the demon.[1]

Overlook Chapter 8, and 9
            We can see Matthew chapter 8 and 9 as one unit, because these two chapters deal with the authority of Jesus. Generally, Matthew arranged his material intentionally, rather than chronologically. For instance, Matthew summarizes about the words and the ministries of Jesus in Matthew 4:23 that “ Jesus was going all over Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness among the people.” Right after his summary, we can see the teaching of Jesus in chapter 5-7, the Sermon on the Mount, and now, in chapter 8-9, we can see the ministries of Jesus.[7]
            In chapter 8-9 demonstrates the authority of Jesus as nine miracle stories are introduced. At the end of the Sermon on Mount, the author says that “when Jesus had finished this sermon, the crowds were astonished at His teaching because He was teaching them like own who had authority, and not like their scribes (28-29).” And then, the same authority is working on Jesus’ ministries in chapter 8. His rule over sickness, creation, demons, and even death.[8]
            According to David Platt, he says that “ Jesus possesses absolute authority in the world and warrants absolute allegiance from the world.”[9] It is truly good news for the people who live in this world with the problem of sickness, suffering, disaster. This is because if we know that who has authority over all these things and happening in our life, we will not overwhelm from them. We could have hope for the deliverance. 
            Especially, I could learn and think about the absolute authority of Jesus In chapter 8:1-4. In here, Jesus cleanses the leper. David says that the leprosy was not just physical disease in first –century Judaism, rather people see it as “repulsively unclean, cursed by God (Num 12:10).”[10] In this context, we could see that Jesus who has authority and power has come into us like leper who is “physically, spiritually, and ceremonially unclean.”[11]
And the leper’s question is interesting. He didn’t ask to Jesus whether He could heal him or not. But he asked Jesus whether He had willed to heal him or not. This sentence might teach us that Jesus has sovereign power, authority and also sovereign will.
Through the chapter 8 to 9, we could learn about the authority of Jesus that His authority is merciful. His merciful authority has healed and met their need that “a leper (8:2), a centurion (8:5-9), a paralyzed man and his friends (9:2), a sick woman (9:20-21), a grieving dad (9:18-19), and blind men (9:27-28).”[12] And these people who experienced His merciful authority renounced themselves and everything belongs to this world to follow Him gladly, and trusted His mercy more. And also there were people who rejected Him and His mercy even though they experienced it.
Outline
The Reality of Evil Spirit
            Through verse 28, we could know that there is a devil, and an evil spirit. Liberal biblical scholars often say that there is no rather the demonic was the way of describing psychological diagnoses like personalities in dissociative disorder or a projection of the inner self, or political categories that it is just symbols of an oppressive power structure.[13] However, in here, we can see clearly that the existence of evil spirit, and it could dwell in a person.
            This place where Jesus met two demon-possessed men “seems to have been in the district controlled by the town of Gadara, near the village of Gerasa. This region lay in the predominantly Gentile territory of the Decapolis.”[14] This is because, a herd of many pigs in verse 30 points to its Gentile background.[15]
            Matthew’s ‘daimonizomevoi’, “demon possessed” is stronger tone than ‘en phnewmati akatharto’, “with an unclean spirit” of Mark.[16] Matthew well describes the personality of demons as “so violent”, and the seriousness of the situation “no one could pass that way”. But here, the description about demoniacs are different with Mark that “the man as one often bound with chains, crying out, and bruising himself (5:3-5). It is suggested that Matthew omitted and made simple comment.[17]
By the way, we can know something that, through the Matthew’s expression about the place where, the persons who demon possessed live is ritually unclean place[18], “coming out of the tombs.” By this, we can guess that the evil spirit is unclean.
It is most striking different between Matthew and the other synoptics is that one demon-possessed man but Matthew has two. And Matthew’s story here is shorter than Mark’s (5:1-20). And Luke (8:26-39) follows Mark much more closely. Hull noted that Matthew suppressed on the information of Mark, specifically, concerning the exorcism technique and it express that Matthew is anti-Magic. In any way, scholars suggest that Matthew wanted to pay attention more to Jesus by that to make short of Mark.
Matthew omitted again about the “demons possessed” man that “ran and worshiped him” from Mark, and Matthew simply addressed “Son of God” in verse 29. And he also omitted Mark’s that “about two thousand,” and he just mentioned, “many” in verse 30.
Then, why Matthew introduced two demons possessed person differently with Mark in a same story? Scholars suggest that these doublings (8:28; 9:27, 20:30) of Matthew came from the tradition of Jews that Jewish law required two witnesses. It is understandable.[19]
The Limitation of Demon’s Power
            In verse 29, we can know that Jesus has authority over the demons, it means that there is a limitation on demon’s power. The reality of evil spirits and they have power is so true. However, we no need to fear them, because Jesus is ruling over them, so that their power is limited.[20]
            The demons addressed Jesus as “Son of God”. This title has richest sense. It can mean that Jesus has authority even over the demonic world. It is interesting that demon’s question to the Lord. This is because demons recognized that they will have experienced God’s judgment at the eschatological judgment, and Jesus would be the one who will discharge it. And second, they recognized that the ‘kairos’, “
The appointed time” has not yet come. But Jesus already has come to threaten their realm.[21] Even the demon knew that their power will be ending at the “appointed time”. It is their limitation. Their power will not continue, there is the ending time. But the power and the authority of Jesus would be forever, and there is no limitation rather His power and His authority limit the darkness’s.
            In verse 30, Matthew says that “…a herd of many pigs was feeding at some distance from them.” In ancient times, Gentile, especially, through- out the Mediterranean used pigs as a ritual motif when they sacrificed to their gods. Its role was a substitute for humans. And the army, they used pig for purificatory sacrifice. Because of this religious reason, probably, the Old Testament prohibits against the pig as a food (Isaiah 65:2-5, 66:3, 66:17).[22] However, it has no textual support as the answer of those questions that why demons ask to be sent into the herd of pigs, or why Jesus permits their request, or why a herd of many pigs should be died?
Rather, it is more persuasive that the answer based on the character of demons or their desire that “(1) desire for a bodily “home”; (2) hatred of God’s creatures; (3) desire to stir animosity against Jesus.”[23] Especially, about to the second and third reason, “the Gospels elsewhere show that exorcised evil spirits sometimes expressed their rage by visible acts of violence or mischief.”[24]
Though Matthew does not give us the reason of demons’ request, we can clearly know that even their request also shows us the authority of Jesus over the demons’ power through verse 31. Before the Christ, they couldn’t do anything, even entering to the herd of pigs, they need the permission of Son of God.
In addition, “a herd of many pigs” is significant. As I mention, pigs were unclean animals. Therefore, by the presence of “a herd of many pigs”, we could know that the pigs -herders and the people of the city might be not Jewish.[25] But I am not sure that whether the demons possessed men were Jews or Gentiles. However, it is clear that they were unclean at that time. According to Mark, the demons were “Legon,” that possessed men, how could the multitude demons possessed human? Does it relate to the question how seriously the men unclear? 
Deliverance from the Devil’s Power
Verse 32, there are some arguments that the subject of ‘aphethanon’, “they died”, Gundry and other some scholars suggest that “they died”, is demons. This is because when the pigs rushed into the sea, the switch from a singular verb with a collective subject “herd” to a plural verb without a change of subject, it is not normal in Greek. And in Mark also same shift happened from a singular to a plural verb. So that, Gundry says that demons died and they were sent to hell.[26] I like the explanation of Gundry about the result of a herd of many pigs’ death, but demon can die by the death of bodily existence? And Matthew doesn’t give us information about it.
Actually, I started to study Matthew chapter 8:28-34 to know the answer about the question that why Jesus permits them to destroy a herd of many pigs? However, it is still difficult to find answers. It is good to satisfy the some scholar’s suggested that in light of verse 33-34, the loss of the herd of became a way of exposing the real values of the people in the vicinity.[27] 
Now, I want to focus on Jesus more that He is our great deliverer from the power of the darkness. He is our redeemer from our all sin, all the sickness, this evil world, and the power of evil spirits. Jesus has power and authority to redeem us from holistic human problems. This power and authority of deliverance human came from His merciful heart.
Therefore, we no need fear of demonic power, if we know that Jesus can break their all the chain and order to their departure from human whom they held in bondage. No other powers can compare with His power.[28]
The Choice
            Verse 33-34, the herders fled, probably in fear of the events what they saw. After that “all the city”, came out to meet Jesus. And they begged Him to leave their region. It is not expectable reaction of the people who heard the news about Jesus who has great power and what He has done!
It is understandable that Jerome’ mention about the reaction of the people, it is “not mean an ultimate rejection of Jesus but confusion and fear at the series of astonishing incidents-not to mention resentment at the destruction of a herd of animals valuable to them..”[29] However, there is a common point that when Jesus casts out the demons and Paul casts out the demon from a slave girl who brought her owners much gain by fortune-telling (Acts 16:16-24), the material possession is related, and as a result, the rejection was happened. The people of city might had confusion and fear as Jerome said, but did not all the people who experienced the great power of Jesus reacted like them.
I think it is big matter when people face the situation which relates with money, there is a great rejection. But I don’t know how the casting out demon relates to the matter that material possession. John F. Walvoord says that “They preferred pigs and money to Christ and spiritual riches. As the next chapter reveals (9:1), Jesus obliged them and left.”[30] It is true, and people “continue to choose between Jesus and pigs”[31] after His deliverance action, and people have to have the responsibility of their choice.
In addition, it is interesting that Matthew doesn’t mention about the two who were healed by the power of Christ from demon possession. But in Mark, the man came to Jesus for being with Him. But Jesus remains him “Go home to your friends and tell them how much the Lord has done for you and how he has had mercy on you” (Mark 5:19).  So that the man “went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him, and everyone marveled.” (Mar5:20).
            I am not sure that why Matthew omitted it probably, he just wanted to concentrate about the sovereign authority of Christ. But, it is clear that even though there are such a great rejection of Christ, there are some people who willing to follow Christ Jesus. This is because they experienced the power of the Lord and His mercy, saving grace for them. How great mercy of Jesus that He went to the place where was unclean to save the demons possessed men, although He knew that would be great rejection to Him and He will encounter the demons which are unclean dare not to speak to Jesus. Jesus has absolute authority over the supernatural powers, but the authority is merciful.
Application
            Through this passage we can know that the demon is real. However, the demonic power that people are afraid is real and strong is still under the authority of Jesus. They cannot do anything without His allowing, and of course cannot harm the people of God. This is because the strongest one who has full of power and authority is our redeemer. And His mercy is always upon the people those who return to God. Therefore, we must trust Him in all the situation we have faced. So that we can peacefully have rest even though we are in the midst of the warfare with demonic power and suffering situation. And we must enjoy His authority with submission to His authority gladly.
            And also, we must not forget that the victims, especially, who are under the demonic power or possessed by it are still more valuable than a herd of many swine. Even though, they are looking messy on their appearances, spirits, and their life. Like us, they need a redeemer, and their deliverance from evil spirits is real.[32]


Conclusion
            Through this study of Matthew 8: 28-34, we could know that Jesus alone has authority over all things in this world even over the darkness world. And He who has absolute power and authority is mercy. He willing to set the victims free, and He came to us to set free from the authority of evil spirit and death. For that He died, as a result, people who come to the Lord are free. It gives us great hope. This is because so many people are still suffering under the evil spirits and the evil world. However, there is a redeemer who has supreme authority.
