 * Gergesenes.
   Some are of opinion that Gergasa was the country of the
   ancient Girgashites; but it is more probable the Gergesenes
   was introduced by Origen upon mere conjecture; as before him
   most copies seem to have read Gadarenes, agreeable to the
   Parallel Passages and the ancient Syriac version.  Gadara,
   says Josephus, was the metropolis of Peraea, or the region
   beyond Jordan; and he also observes that it was sixty
   furlongs, or about eight miles from Tiberias.  It is therefore
   rightly placed opposite Tiberias, at the southeast end of the
   lake.  Pliny says it was called Hippodion, was one of the
   cities of Decapolis, and had the river Hieromax, or Jarmouk,
   flowing before it.  It was of heathen jurisdiction; whence
   perhaps it was destroyed by the Jews; but was rebuilt by
   Pompey, and joined to the province of Syria.  Augustus
   afterwards gave it to Herod, on whose death it was again
   annexed to Syria.  It is now called Om Keis; its ruins are in
   a very mutilated state, and when visited by Burckhardt it had
   not a single inhabitant.  The remains of the sepulchral
   caverns in which the demoniacs abode are still to be seen.
