Commentaries:
Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
Rushed down the steep (wrmhsen kata tou krhmnou). Ablative with kata as in Mark 5:13; Matthew 8:32 and the same vivid verb in each account, to hurl impetuously, to rush.
Were choked (apepnigh). Second aorist (constative) passive indicative third singular (collective singular) where Mark 5:13 has the picturesque imperfect epnigonto.
Other Robertson's Word Pictures (NT) entries containing Luke 8:33:
Matthew 13:7
Mark 5:13
Acts 7:57
