Mark 6:32 In-Context

30 The apostles then rendezvoused with Jesus and reported on all that they had done and taught.
31 Jesus said, "Come off by yourselves; let's take a break and get a little rest." For there was constant coming and going. They didn't even have time to eat.
32 So they got in the boat and went off to a remote place by themselves.
33 Someone saw them going and the word got around. From the surrounding towns people went out on foot, running, and got there ahead of them.
34 When Jesus arrived, he saw this huge crowd. At the sight of them, his heart broke - like sheep with no shepherd they were. He went right to work teaching them.
