6 So they departed and visited village after village, spreading the Good News and performing cures everywhere.

Luke 9:6 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 9:6

And they departed
That is, the apostles, as the Syriac and Persic versions express it: they went from Christ, and the place where he was, from Capernaum, at least from some place in Galilee:

and went through the towns;
the Syriac, Persic, and Ethiopic versions add, "and cities"; that is, of Judea, as well as Galilee, even the whole land of Israel:

preaching the Gospel;
which explains what is meant by the kingdom of God, ( Luke 9:2 ) and healing everywhere; all sorts of bodily diseases, wherever they came.

Luke 9:6 In-Context

4 Whatever house you enter, make that your home, and from it start afresh.

5 Wherever they refuse to receive you, as you leave that town shake off the very dust from your feet as a protest against them."

6 So they departed and visited village after village, spreading the Good News and performing cures everywhere.

7 Now Herod the Tetrarch heard of all that was going on; and he was bewildered because of its being said by some that John had come back to life,

8 by others that Elijah had appeared, and by others that some one of the ancient Prophets had come back to life.
