Matthew 14:34-36

The Death of John, the Compassion of Jesus, and the Son of God over Bread, Sea, and Fear

Matthew moves from Herod’s fearful interpretation of Jesus, to the flashback of John’s execution, to Jesus’ withdrawal and compassion, to the feeding of the multitude, to Jesus’ solitary prayer, to his walking on the sea, to Peter’s rescue and the disciples’ worship, and finally to widespread healing in Gennesaret.

34When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret.

35And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding region. People brought all the sick to Him

36and begged Him just to let them touch the fringe of His cloak. And all who touched Him were healed.
