UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

ἐξελθόντι & αὐτῷ

/having/_come_out & ˱to˲_him

Here Luke is writing in a compact way. He means that Jesus came out of the boat. Alternate translation: “when Jesus got out of the boat”

Note 2 topic: writing-participants

ἀνήρ τις ἐκ τῆς πόλεως

/a/_man certain out_of the city

This phrase introduces a new character in a story. If your language has an expression of its own that serves this purpose, you could use it here. Alternate translation: “a man who was from the city of Gerasa”

ἔχων δαιμόνια

having demons

Alternate translation: “who was controlled by demons” or “whom demons controlled”

Note 3 topic: writing-background

καὶ χρόνῳ ἱκανῷ

and ˱for˲_time much

Luke uses this phrase to introduce background information about the man who had demons. Alternate translation: “Now for a long time”

Note 4 topic: translate-unknown

τοῖς μνήμασιν

the tombs

The term the tombs refers to places in which people laid to rest the bodies of loved ones who have died. In this context it may possibly mean caves cut into the rock or small buildings that the man could use for shelter.
