When he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and bowed down before him.

Now the herdsmen ran off and spread the news in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.

They ran through that whole region and began to bring the sick on mats to wherever he was rumored to be.

When the whole crowd saw him, they were amazed and ran at once and greeted him.

Now as Jesus was starting out on his way, someone ran up to him, fell on his knees, and said, "Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?"

but he ran off naked, leaving his linen cloth behind.

Then someone ran, filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on a stick, and gave it to him to drink, saying, "Leave him alone! Let's see if Elijah will come to take him down!"

Then they went out and ran from the tomb, for terror and bewilderment had seized them. And they said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.
