The demons knew that Jesus had the authority to send them immediately to their judgment (vs. 29). They knew that he was going to send them out of the man, so they asked that he send them into the pigs (probably because they were nearby).

When the pigs drowned (vs. 32) the demons would have been free to find someone or something else to enter. The point is that Jesus had authority over them. He cast them out of the men, but it was not time to end their demonic work yet.

Why did Jesus sends the demons into the pigs at their request? What happened to the demons when the pigs ran over the cliff? Is there a point here? Thanks
