Jesus lowered his arms. The entire massive crowd of demoniacs fell to the ground, unconscious, downed by a spiritual wave of power. A gust of wind drew up out of the fallen bodies and became a whirlwind around Jesus. Dust and debris flew around him. The whirlwind then sucked away from Jesus into the large cave opening, and everything went silent. Dead silent. When the individuals in the crowd began to move, they were disoriented, as if they were waking from a sleepwalking trance. Simon knew that Jesus had engaged in a mass exorcism of the entire crowd. This location was truly a bastion of demonic power. But Jesus had neutered the forces of evil that guarded it.
