Mark and Q account for about 64% of Luke; the remaining material, known as the L source, is of unknown origin and date. [28] Most Q and L-source material is grouped in two clusters, Luke 6:17–8:3 and 9:51–18:14, and L-source material forms the first two sections of the gospel (the preface and infancy and childhood narratives).

The Gospel of Luke's version (Luke 8:26–39) is shorter than Mark's, but agrees with most of its details. [6] One detail that is unique to Luke's version is a reference to both the demoniac's nakedness and his subsequent clothing. At Luke 8:27, the gospel writer notes that the demoniac wore no clothes.
