And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing in on you; how can you say, ‘Who touched me?’ ”
So he went with him. And a large crowd followed him and pressed in on him.
Immediately aware that power had gone forth from him, Jesus turned about in the crowd and said, “Who touched my cloak?”
He looked all around to see who had done it.
Then Jesus asked, “Who touched me?” When they all denied it, Peter said, “Master, the crowds are hemming you in and pressing against you.”
The day was drawing to a close, and the twelve came to him and said, “Send the crowd away, so that they may go into the surrounding villages and countryside to lodge and get provisions, for we are here in a deserted place.”
