'Throng' in the Bible

But such large crowds gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat there [positioning Himself as a teacher], while the whole crowd stood on the shore.

When He went ashore, He saw a large crowd, and felt [profound] compassion for them and healed their sick.

As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Him.

When the crowds heard this, they were astonished at His teaching.
