Mark 6:54 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 6:54

And when they were come out of the ship
Christ and his disciples, and were ashore,

straightway they knew him;
that is, the men of that place, as in Mt. 14:35, (See Gill on Matthew 14:35); and so the Syriac, Arabic, and Persic versions read here, "the inhabitants of that country", the country of Gennesaret; they knew him, having seen and heard him before.

Mark 6:54 In-Context

52 They had not understood about the loaves. They were stubborn.

53 They crossed over the lake and landed at Gennesaret. There they tied up the boat.

54 As soon as Jesus and his disciples got out, people recognized him.

55 They ran through that whole area to bring to him those who were sick. They carried them on mats to where they heard he was.

56 He went into the villages, the towns and the countryside. Everywhere he went, the people brought the sick to the market places. Those who were sick begged him to let them touch just the edge of his clothes. And all who touched him were healed.
