19But he would not permit him but told him instead, “Go home[G][5:19] Go home: Jesus did not accept the man’s request to remain with him as a disciple (Mk 5:18), yet invited him to announce to his own people what the Lord had done for him, i.e., proclaim the gospel message to his pagan family; cf. Mk 1:14, 39; 3:14; 13:10. to your family and announce to them all that the Lord in his pity has done for you.”
