God's Goodness and Man's Ingratitude
Matthew 8:34
And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they sought him that he would depart out of their coasts.


The Gadarenes, in return for Christ's works of love, majesty, and mercy, besought Him to depart. They eared more for the swine which the devils had destroyed than for the poor man Christ had restored.

(A. Jones.)
