DIEEGOU TELL A STORY
The story I have for you today is one about grammar and another about Luke 8:39
Noe Jesus often told people not to make a fuss about his healing powers however in the case of the Gerasene Demonaic he tells the man to
"Return to your home and tell the story (of) how mach for you made ? did the god!
hyposrephe eis ton oikon sou return to the house of you
kai dieegou and tell / narrate the story hosa how much soi for you not to you FOR you
epoieesen made gets translated often as did but remember its making miracles as an action of making things happen and last in the command the source of all this ho theos !
What caught my eye was the command to tell a story and the Present Imperative Verb form DIEEGOU from DIEEGEOMAI a great example of the eo+ imperative e contracting to a different form.
Going back into the whole passage I think one of the reasons Jesus told him to stay at home and witness there was to reassure the frightened locals by the example of the once deranged man who was running around naked in the desert being once again sane - soophrovounta verse 35 .
Another important thing about this story is not if he was possessed by demons or just schizophrenia - he was healed. Oh and people please don't use this story as an excuse to skip your medications if you need them?
