Luke 8:38 in Context — Luke 8
36 Ceux qui avaient vu ce qui s’était passé leur racontèrent comment le démoniaque avait été guéri.
37 Tous les habitants du pays des Géraséniens prièrent Jésus de s’éloigner d’eux, car ils étaient saisis d’une grande crainte. Jésus monta dans la barque, et s’en retourna.
38 L’homme de qui étaient sortis les démons lui demandait la permission de rester avec lui. Mais Jésus le renvoya, en disant:
39 Retourne dans ta maison, et raconte tout ce que Dieu t’a fait. Il s’en alla, et publia par toute la ville tout ce que Jésus avait fait pour lui.
40 A son retour, Jésus fut reçu par la foule, car tous l’attendaient.
