"JESUS and HIS disciples withdrew to the lakeside, and a large crowd from Galilee followed HIM. A great number of people also came from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, Transjordan, and from the region of Tyre and Sidon, fro they had heard of all that HE was doing.
Because of the crowd, JESUS told HIS disciples to have a boat ready for HIM, to prevent the people from crushing HIM. HE healed so many, that all who had diseases kept pressing toward HIM to touch HIM. Even the people who had evil spirits, whenever they saw HIM, they would fall down before HIM and cry out, 'YOU are the Son of GOD.' But HE warned them sternly not to tell anyone who HE was." - Mark 3:7-12
(In this way, Isaiah's prophecy was fulfilled:
Here is MY servant, whom I have chosen; the one I love, and with whom I AM pleased. I will put MY spirit upon HIM; and HE will announce MY judgment to the nations.
HE will not argue or shout, nor will HIS voice be heard in the streets. The bruised reed HE will not crush, nor snuff out the smoldering wick until HE brings justice to victory, and in HIM, all the nations will put their hope.)
