Meditating
on the Scriptures Together
Morning:
Mark 5:1-20
[1]
They came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the
Gerasenes. [2] And when Jesus had stepped out of the boat,
immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean
spirit. [3] He lived among the tombs. And no one could bind him
anymore, not even with a chain, [4] for he had often been bound with
shackles and chains, but he wrenched the chains apart, and he broke
the shackles in pieces. No one had the strength to subdue him. [5]
Night and day among the tombs and on the mountains he was always
crying out and cutting himself with stones. [6] And when he saw Jesus
from afar, he ran and fell down before him. [7] And crying out with a
loud voice, he said, “What have you to do with me, Jesus, Son of
the Most High God? I adjure you by God, do not torment me.” [8] For
he was saying to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!”
[9] And Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” He replied, “My
name is Legion, for we are many.” [10] And he begged him earnestly
not to send them out of the country. [11] Now a great herd of pigs
was feeding there on the hillside, [12] and they begged him, saying,
“Send us to the pigs; let us enter them.” [13] So he gave them
permission. And the unclean spirits came out and entered the pigs;
and the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep
bank into the sea and drowned in the sea.
[14]
The herdsmen fled and told it in the city and in the country. And
people came to see what it was that had happened. [15] And they came
to Jesus and saw the demon-possessed man, the one who had had the
legion, sitting there, clothed and in his right mind, and they were
afraid. [16] And those who had seen it described to them what had
happened to the demon-possessed man and to the pigs. [17] And they
began to beg Jesus to depart from their region. [18] As he was
getting into the boat, the man who had been possessed with demons
begged him that he might be with him. [19] And he did not permit him
but said to 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.” [20]
And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how much
Jesus had done for him, and everyone marveled.
Evening:
Psalm 84
How lovely is Your
dwelling place!
