'Crowds' in the Bible

And great crowds followed Him, coming from Galilee, from the Ten Towns, from Jerusalem, and from beyond the district on the other side of the Jordan.

When Jesus had concluded this discourse, the crowds were filled with amazement at His teaching,

Upon descending from the hill country He was followed by immense crowds.

Seeing great crowds about Him Jesus had given directions to cross to the other side of the Lake,

And the crowds were awe-struck when they saw it, and ascribed the glory to God who had entrusted such power to a man.

When the demon was expelled, the dumb man could speak. And the crowds exclaimed in astonishment, "Never was such a thing seen in Israel."

And when He saw the crowds He was touched with pity for them, because they were distressed and were fainting on the ground like sheep which have no shepherd.

And the crowds of people were all filled with amazement and said, "Can this be the Son of David?"

Upon receiving these tidings, Jesus went away by boat to an uninhabited and secluded district; but the people heard of it and followed Him in crowds from the towns by land.

Soon great crowds came to Him, bringing with them those who were crippled in feet or hands, blind or dumb, and many besides, and they hastened to lay them at His feet. And He cured them,

"This is Jesus, the Prophet, from Nazareth in Galilee," replied the crowds.

Then Jesus addressed the crowds and His disciples.

Then said Jesus to the crowds, "Have you come out as if to fight with a robber, with swords and bludgeons to apprehend me? Day after day I have been sitting teaching in the Temple, and you did not arrest me.

Accordingly John used to say to the crowds who came out to be baptized by him, "O vipers' brood, who has warned you to flee from the coming wrath?

The crowds repeatedly asked him, "What then are we to do?"

"Who is it touched me?" Jesus asked. And when all denied having done so, Peter and the rest said, "Rabbi, the crowds are hemming you in and pressing on you."

Now when the crowds came thronging upon Him, He proceeded to say, "The present generation is a wicked generation: it requires some sign, but no sign shall be given to it except that of Jonah.

On His journey vast crowds attended Him, towards whom He turned and said,

And all the crowds that had come together to this sight, after seeing all that had occurred, returned to the city beating their breasts.

At break of day however He returned to the Temple, and there the people came to Him in crowds. He seated Himself;

The inhabitants, too, of the towns in the neighbourhood of Jerusalem came in crowds, bringing sick persons and some who were harassed by foul spirits, and they were cured, one and all.

Crowds of people, with one accord, gave attention to what they heard from him, listening, and witnessing the signs which he did.

Seeing the crowds, the Jews, filled with angry jealousy, opposed Paul's statements and abused him.

So he sprang up and began to walk about. Then the crowds, seeing what Paul had done, rent the air with their shouts in the Lycaonian language, saying, "The gods have assumed human form and have come down to us."

The excitement spread through the whole city, and the people rushed in crowds to the Temple, and there laid hold of Paul and began to drag him out; and the Temple gates were immediately closed.
