The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

The question is asking what the Gerasenes did when they saw the man who had been possessed by demons in his right mind. The options are A) fled the city for fear, B) asked Jesus to depart from them, C) asked Jesus, 'what is your name?' and D) asked Jesus to stay on with them.

The correct answer is B) asked Jesus to depart from them. This story can be found in the Bible in the book of Mark, chapter 5, verses 1-20. In this story, Jesus crosses over to the other side of the lake and is met by a man who is possessed by a demon. Jesus commands the demon to come out of the man, and the demon enters a herd of pigs, causing them to run off a cliff and drown in the lake.

When the people of the nearby town, the Gerasenes, see the man who had been possessed by demons in his right mind, they become afraid and ask Jesus to leave their town. This may have been because they were afraid of Jesus' power or because they were upset about the loss of the pigs.

It is important to note that this story highlights Jesus' power over demons and shows that he is able to heal those who are possessed. It also illustrates the importance of faith and trust in Jesus.
