We consider general ergodic aperiodic Markov chains with nite state space whose transition probabilities between pairs of diierent communicating states are exponentially small in a large parameter. We extend previous results by Freidlin and Wentzell (FW]) on the rst exit problem from a general domain Q. In the present paper we analyze the case of reversible Markov chains. The general case will be studied in a forthcoming paper. We prove, in a purely probabilistic way and without using F-W graphical technique, some results on the rst exit problem from a general domain Q containing many attractors. In particular we analyze the properties of special domains called cycles and, by using the new concept of temporal entropy, we obtain new results leading to a complete description of the typical tube of trajectories during the rst excursion outside Q.
