# Decapolis

This is the name of a region that means Ten Cities. It is located to the southeast of the Sea of Galilee. See how you translated this in [Mark 5:20](../05/18.md). (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-names]])

The "laying on of hands" refers to a prophet or teacher placing his hand on someone and imparting either healing or a blessing. In this case, the people are begging Jesus to heal a man. AT: "to put his hand on him to heal him" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
