'Crowds' in the Bible

When Jesus saw large crowds around Him, He gave the order to go to the other side of the sea.

As these men went away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed swaying in the wind?

When Jesus became aware of this, He withdrew from there. Huge crowds followed Him, and He healed them all.

He was still speaking to the crowds when suddenly His mother and brothers were standing outside wanting to speak to Him.

Such large crowds gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat down, while the whole crowd stood on the shore.

Jesus told the crowds all these things in parables, and He would not speak anything to them without a parable,

Then He dismissed the crowds and went into the house. His disciples approached Him and said, “Explain the parable of the weeds in the field to us.”

When Jesus heard about it, He withdrew from there by boat to a remote place to be alone. When the crowds heard this, they followed Him on foot from the towns.

When evening came, the disciples approached Him and said, “This place is a wilderness, and it is already late. Send the crowds away so they can go into the villages and buy food for themselves.”

Then He commanded the crowds to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed them. He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.

Immediately He made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side, while He dismissed the crowds.

and large crowds came to Him, having with them the lame, the blind, the deformed, those unable to speak, and many others. They put them at His feet, and He healed them.

And he commanded the crowds to lie down on the ground;

He took the seven loaves and the fish, and He gave thanks, broke them, and kept on giving them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.

After dismissing the crowds, He got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.

The crowd sternly told them to be quiet, but they cried out all the more, “Lord, Son of David (Messiah) have mercy on us!”

Then the crowds who went ahead of Him and those who followed kept shouting:Hosanna to the Son of David!He who comes in the nameof the Lord is the blessed One!Hosanna in the highest heaven!

Although they were looking for a way to arrest Him, they feared the crowds, because they regarded Him as a prophet.

At that time Jesus said to the crowds, “Have you come out with swords and clubs, as if I were a criminal, to capture Me? Every day I used to sit, teaching in the temple complex, and you didn’t arrest Me.

The chief priests and the elders, however, persuaded the crowds to ask for Barabbas and to execute Jesus.
