Thematic Bible: The crowds press upon him


Thematic Bible



“Who touched Me?” Jesus asked.

When they all denied it, Peter said, “Master, the crowds are hemming You in and pressing against You.”

So many people gathered together that there was no more room, not even in the doorway, and He was speaking the message to them.


So Jesus went with him, and a large crowd was following and pressing against Him.

As the crowd was pressing in on Jesus to hear God’s word, He was standing by Lake Gennesaret.

Then His mother and brothers came to Him, but they could not meet with Him because of the crowd.
