Mk 5:16c ... and about the pigs.

The third phrase has these 4 narrator words ... kai peri tōn choirōn (and about the pigs).

The 4 narrator words are top-down. The text has the perfect opportunity to tell the reader it was the pigs that were choked, not the Unclean Spirits. Instead, the author of this parable allows the reader to draw the incorrect conclusion. The 2 words "tōn choirōn" (the pigs) are tangent to the sea that holds 4 pigs (Roman soldiers) infected with a Legion of many thousands of Unclean Spirits. The pigs baptized in the water lived and "about 2000" of Unclean Spirits choked by the sea were drowned.
