'People' in the Bible

People from the whole Judean countryside and all of Jerusalem were going out to him, and he was baptizing them in the Jordan River as they confessed their sins.

Jesus said to them, "Follow me, and I will turn you into fishers of people."

The people there were amazed by his teaching, because he taught them like one who had authority, not like the experts in the law.

Some people came bringing to him a paralytic, carried by four of them.

Then he said to them, "The Sabbath was made for people, not people for the Sabbath.

So he said to the man who had the withered hand, "Stand up among all these people."

I tell you the truth, people will be forgiven for all sins, even all the blasphemies they utter.

Now the herdsmen ran off and spread the news in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.

But Jesus did not permit him to do so. Instead, he said to him, "Go to your home and to your people and tell them what the Lord has done for you, that he had mercy on you."

While he was still speaking, people came from the synagogue ruler's house saying, "Your daughter has died. Why trouble the teacher any longer?"

They came to the house of the synagogue ruler where he saw noisy confusion and people weeping and wailing loudly.

He was not able to do a miracle there, except to lay his hands on a few sick people and heal them.

They cast out many demons and anointed many sick people with oil and healed them.

He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. He gave them to his disciples to serve the people, and he divided the two fish among them all.

As they got out of the boat, people immediately recognized Jesus.

He said to them, "Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written: 'This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

People were completely astounded and said, "He has done everything well. He even makes the deaf hear and the mute speak."

His disciples answered him, "Where can someone get enough bread in this desolate place to satisfy these people?"

Regaining his sight he said, "I see people, but they look like trees walking."

Then Jesus and his disciples went to the villages of Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, "Who do people say that I am?"

Now people were bringing little children to him for him to touch, but the disciples scolded those who brought them.

Some people standing there said to them, "What are you doing, untying that colt?"

John's baptism -- was it from heaven or from people? Answer me."

But if we say, 'From people -- '" (they feared the crowd, for they all considered John to be truly a prophet).

Then he sat down opposite the offering box, and watched the crowd putting coins into it. Many rich people were throwing in large amounts.

For they said, "Not during the feast, so there won't be a riot among the people."

During the feast it was customary to release one prisoner to the people, whomever they requested.
