Legion and the Swine
The Gospels tells how Jesus heals the madman, after sailing across the Sea of Galilee and landing in the Country of Gadarenes (Gader, south east corner of the lake). He drives out the devils into a herd of swine, who “ran violently down a steep place into the sea and were choked in the sea” (Mark 5:13).
At Kursi, excavations restored the ruins of a 5th-6th century AD church and monastery, the largest Byzantine monastery in Israel, which was established on basis of the traditional site of the miracle.
