Mark 8:13 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 8:13

And he left them
As a perverse and hardened generation of men, and as such with whom it was not worth while to discourse:

and entering into the ship again;
which brought him over, and waited for him:

departed to the other side;
of the sea of Galilee, towards Bethsaida, ( Mark 8:22 ) .

Mark 8:13 In-Context

11 When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had arrived, they came and started to argue with him. Testing him, they demanded that he show them a miraculous sign from heaven to prove his authority.

12 When he heard this, he sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why do these people keep demanding a miraculous sign? I tell you the truth, I will not give this generation any such sign.”

13 So he got back into the boat and left them, and he crossed to the other side of the lake.

14 But the disciples had forgotten to bring any food. They had only one loaf of bread with them in the boat.

15 As they were crossing the lake, Jesus warned them, “Watch out! Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and of Herod.”
