"The evil spirits are forced to release their victims, and a wonderful change comes over the demoniacs. Light shines into their minds. Their eyes beam with intelligence. The countenances so long deformed into the image of Satan become suddenly mild, the bloodstained hands are quiet, and the men lift their voices in praise to God. MH 97.1"
"Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid."
The EGW passage describes the transformation of the demoniacs after their encounter with Jesus, mirroring the description in Luke 8:35. The details of their changed state and mental clarity are consistent with the biblical account.
"Meanwhile the demons, cast out from their human habitation, have entered into the swine and driven them to destruction. The keepers of the swine hurry away to publish the news, and the whole population flock to meet Jesus. The two demoniacs have been the terror of the country. Now these men are clothed and in their right mind, sitting at the feet of Jesus, listening to His words, and glorifying the name of Him who has made them whole. But those who behold this wonderful scene do not rejoice. The loss of the swine seems to them of greater moment than the deliverance of these captives of Satan. In terror they throng about Jesus, beseeching Him to depart from them, and He complies, taking ship at once for the opposite shore. MH 97.2"
"And, behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus: and when they saw him, they besought him that he would depart out of their coasts."
This EGW passage closely follows the narrative in Matthew 8:34, describing the reaction of the townspeople to Jesus' miracle and their request for him to leave. The thematic parallel is strong and detailed.
