Mark 5:13 - Additional Comments

What about the value of the swine? Jesus values human life more than animal life. "Are you not of more value than they?" Matt 6:26. "You are of more value than many sparrows" Luke 12:7
Even though they were enemies of Jesus, they still were in complete subjection to Him. See Job 1:12, 2:6, where God gave Satan permission to sift Job.
In the same way that the man filled with the demons was uncontrollable, so were the swine.
