And he kept begging Him not to send them out of the region.

As He was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed kept begging Him to be with Him.

and kept begging Him, “My little daughter is at death’s door. Come and lay Your hands on her so she can get well and live.”

Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke the loaves. He kept giving them to His disciples to set before the people. He also divided the two fish among them all.

Now the woman was Greek, a Syrophoenician by birth, and she kept asking Him to drive the demon out of her daughter.

Then He commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. Taking the seven loaves, He gave thanks, broke the loaves, and kept on giving them to His disciples to set before the people. So they served the loaves to the crowd.

They kept this word to themselves, discussing what “rising from the dead” meant.

He said to Him, “Teacher, I have kept all these from my youth.”

Then those who went ahead and those who followed kept shouting:

Hosanna!
He who comes in the name
of the Lord is the blessed One!

But he kept insisting, “If I have to die with You, I will never deny You!” And they all said the same thing.

But He kept silent and did not answer anything. Again the high priest questioned Him, “Are You the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?”

They kept hitting Him on the head with a reed and spitting on Him. Getting down on their knees, they were paying Him homage.
