The Lord had already commanded the
demon to come out the aftlectea
man. To Jesus' inquiry as to the
name of the unclean spirit, the an-
swer given was, "Legion." A Roman
legion was comaasod of six thousand
men. The•evil spirit then asked that
he and his fellows might not be sent
back to the- abyss, or "out of the
country" (v. 30), but that they might
go into the herd of swine. Jesus cast
out the demons and they took posses-
sion of the two thousand swine and
hurried them down ineo- the sea. The
swine perished and the devils either
returned to their own abode or found
retuge elsewhere.' The keepers of the
swine were greatly aroused over the
miracle and hastened to tell the peo-
ple what had taken place, and they in
turn were aroused over the strange
report which was brought to them.

Capture of Jericho, the military cor-

chief local points in his defensive
scheme in Palestine.
"The advance," the writer adds,
"should result in the elearhig out of

since it gives the British a line right
across Palestine. It endangers the
enemy's motor boat flotilla, which has
had its base at the mouth of the Jor-
