Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

8:32 a large herd of pigs: Pigs were unclean animals for Jews, which shows that the people of this region were Gentiles. The unclean demons were fit only for pigs.
Note 1 topic: writing-background
ἦν δὲ ἐκεῖ ἀγέλη χοίρων ἱκανῶν βοσκομένη ἐν τῷ ὄρει
was and there /a/_herd ˱of˲_pigs many /being/_fed on the mountain
Luke supplies this background information to help readers understand what happens next.
ἦν & ἐκεῖ & βοσκομένη ἐν τῷ ὄρει
was & there & /being/_fed on the mountain
Alternate translation: “was nearby eating grass on the side of a hill”
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
παρεκάλεσαν αὐτὸν ἵνα ἐπιτρέψῃ αὐτοῖς εἰς ἐκείνους εἰσελθεῖν
˱they˲_implored him that ˱he˲_/may/_permit ˱to˲_them into those /to/_come_in
If it would be helpful to your readers, you could clarify who and what these pronouns refer to. Alternate translation: “the demons begged Jesus to let them go into the pigs”
καὶ ἐπέτρεψεν αὐτοῖς
and and ˱he˲_permitted ˱to˲_them
Luke does not say specifically why Jesus allowed the demons to go into the pigs. But Jesus did not necessarily do so because the demons begged him. He may have had other reasons of his own. So it would probably be best to translate this in a neutral way, as ULT and UST both do, rather than beginning with a word such as “So,” which would imply that Jesus agreed to this because the demons begged him.
