Luke 8:34. When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country.
Sometimes, Christ wrought cures which were scarcely mentioned; but here, - and I only remember a second miracle at all like to it, - that of the withering of the barren fig-tree, - he wrought a miracle of judgment, and it caused a great stir and much talk. I have heard of bells at sea that only ring out in the roughest storms. Here is one that was heard when softer tones would not have been heeded: "They fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country."
