Hilary of Poitiers, on Matt 8:28
Hilary of Poitiers · c. A.D. 310–367
Matt 8:28 · Douay-Rheims
“And when he was come on the other side of the water, into the country of the Gerasens, there met him two that were possessed with devils, coming out of the sepulchres, exceeding fierce, so that none could pass by that way.”
On this verse:
“Thus the dæmons held the two men among the tombs without the town, that is, without the synagogue of the Law and the Prophets; that is, they infested the original seats of the two nations, the abodes of the dead, making the way of this present life dangerous to the passers by.”
