Matt Palmer RS 201 New Testament Lit. Dec. 11, 2000 Legion: An Exegetical Analysis In this analysis I will be drawing from five passages found in Mark 5: 9-13, which is the story of the demonic possession by the demon which is called Legion.

These passages show the power that Christ had to heal anything that he could command even the unclean spirits and they would obey. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography**
