But many people saw them leave and knew who they were. So people from every town ran to the place where they were going and got there before Jesus.
My dear brothers and sisters, always be more willing to listen than to speak. Keep control of your anger.
A great crowd of people followed him because they saw the miraculous signs he did in healing the sick.
So Jesus and his followers went away alone. They went in a boat to a place where no one lived.
As Jesus stepped out of the boat, he saw a large crowd waiting. He felt sorry for them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd to care for them. So he taught the people many things.
