Thematic Bible



In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the Wilderness of Judea


Large crowds followed Him from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.

On one of those days while He was teaching, Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there who had come from every village of Galilee and Judea, and also from Jerusalem. And the Lord’s power to heal was in Him.

When this man heard that Jesus had come from Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and pleaded with Him to come down and heal his son, for he was about to die.

This, therefore, was the second sign Jesus performed after He came from Judea to Galilee.


When Jesus had finished this instruction, He departed from Galilee and went to the region of Judea across the Jordan.

But they kept insisting, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee where He started even to here.”

He set out from there and went to the region of Judea and across the Jordan. Then crowds converged on Him again and, as He usually did, He began teaching them once more.
