Mark 6:32 In-Context

30 And the apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus and told Him all things, both what they had done and what they had taught.

31 And He said unto them, "Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while." For there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure, even so much as to eat.

32 And they departed into a desert place by boat privately.

33 And the people saw them departing, and many recognized Him and ran thither on foot out of all the cities and outdistanced them, and came together unto Him.

34 And Jesus, when He came out, saw many people and was moved with compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd; and He began to teach them many things.
