Mark 6:51-56

51 Then He got into 1the boat with them, and the wind stopped; and they were utterly * * astonished,
52 for 2they had not gained any insight from the incident of the loaves, but their heart 3was hardened.

Healing at Gennesaret

53 4When they had crossed over they came to land at Gennesaret, and moored to the shore.
54 When they got out of the boat, immediately the people recognized Him,
55 and ran about that whole country and began to carry here and there on their pallets those who were sick, to the place they heard He was.
56 Wherever He entered villages, or cities, or countryside, they were laying the sick in the market places, and imploring Him that they might just 5touch 6the fringe of His cloak; and as many as touched it were being cured.
