Mark 6:32 In-Context

30 The apostles gathered around Jesus and told him about all the things they had done and taught.

31 Crowds of people were coming and going so that Jesus and his followers did not even have time to eat. He said to them, "Come away by yourselves, and we will go to a lonely place to get some rest."

32 So they went in a boat by themselves to a lonely place.

33 But many people saw them leave and recognized them. So from all the towns they ran to the place where Jesus was going, and they got there before him.

34 When he arrived, he saw a great crowd waiting. He felt sorry for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began to teach them many things.
