'Crowds' in the Bible

And large crowds followed him from Galilee, Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and from the other side of the Jordan.

Now [when he] saw the crowds, he went up the mountain and [after he] sat down, his disciples approached him.

And it happened when Jesus finished these words the crowds were amazed at his teaching,

And [when] he came down from the mountain, large crowds followed him.

Now [when] Jesus saw many crowds around him, he gave orders to depart to the other side.

But [when] the crowds saw [this], they were afraid and glorified God who had given such authority to men.

And [after] the demon had been expelled, the one who had been mute spoke, and the crowds were astonished, saying, "{This has never been seen before} in Israel!"

And [when he] saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were weary and dejected, like sheep that did not have a shepherd.

Now [as] these were going away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds concerning John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

And all the crowds were amazed and began saying, "Perhaps this one is the Son of David!"

And [while] he was still speaking to the crowds, behold, his mother and brothers were standing there outside, desiring to speak to him.

And large crowds gathered close around him, so that he got into a boat to sit down, and all the crowd was standing on the shore.

Jesus spoke all these [things] to the crowds in parables, and he was saying nothing to them without a parable,

Then he left the crowds [and] came into the house, and his disciples came to him saying, "Explain the parable of the darnel in the field to us."

Now [when] Jesus heard [it], he withdrew from there in a boat to an isolated place by himself. And [when] the crowds heard [it], they followed him by land from the towns.

Now [when it] was evening, the disciples came to him saying, "The place is desolate and the hour {is late}. Release the crowds so that they can go away into the villages [and] purchase food for themselves."

And he commanded the crowds to recline for a meal on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish [and] looking up to heaven, he gave thanks. And [after] breaking [them], he gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples [gave them] to the crowds.

And immediately he made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, while he sent away the crowds.

And [after he] sent away the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. So [when] evening came, he was there alone.

And large crowds came to him, having with them [the] mute, blind, lame, crippled, and many others, and they put them down at his feet, and he healed them.

he took the seven loaves and the fish and [after he] had given thanks, he broke [them] and began giving [them] to the disciples, and the disciples [gave them] to the crowds.

And [after he] sent away the crowds, he got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.

And large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.

And the crowds who went ahead of him and the ones who followed were shouting, saying, "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed [is] the one who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest [heaven]!"

And the crowds were saying, "This is the prophet Jesus from Nazareth of Galilee!"

and [although they] wanted to arrest him, they were afraid of the crowds, because they looked upon him as a prophet.

And [when] the crowds heard [this], they were amazed at his teaching.

Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples,

At that time Jesus said to the crowds, "Have you come out with swords and clubs, as against a robber, to arrest me? Every day in the temple [courts] I sat teaching, and you did not arrest me!

But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowds that they should ask for Barabbas and put Jesus to death.
