But many people saw them leave and recognized them. The people ran from all the cities and arrived ahead of them.
So they went away in a boat to a place where they could be alone.
When Jesus got out of the boat, he saw a large crowd and felt sorry for them. They were like sheep without a shepherd. So he spent a lot of time teaching them.
A large crowd followed him because they saw the miracles that he performed for the sick.
Remember this, my dear brothers and sisters: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and should not get angry easily.
