Exegesis
The prepositional phrase apo ton horion autōn {ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων αὐτῶν | apò tôn horíōn autō̂n} ‘from their boundaries’ specifies the spatial domain from which they want Him removed, highlighting communal rejection rather than a localized request. The coordination of the two infinitives under ērxanto emphasizes the inseparable link between their urging and the desired outcome.
Root and etymology
horoshóros
“boundary, limit”
In context — Mark 5:17
And they began to urge Him to depart from their region .
