'Started' in the Bible

after staying the full number of days, when they started back home the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not discover this,

They thought that he was in their group of travelers. After traveling for a day, they started looking for him among their relatives and friends.

When they had done this, they caught so many fish that their nets started to tear.

The Pharisees and their scribes started complaining to Jesus' disciples, "Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?"

They, however, were filled with rage and started discussing with one another what they might do to Jesus.

Now Jesus started on His way with them; and when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent friends, saying to Him, “Lord, do not trouble Yourself further, for I am not worthy for You to come under my roof;

One day, Jesus and his disciples got into a boat. He told them, "Let's cross to the other side of the lake." So they started out.

and as they sailed he fell asleep. Now a violent windstorm came down on the lake, and the boat started filling up with water, and they were in danger.

For Jesus had started commanding the evil spirit to come out of the man. (For it had seized him many times, so he would be bound with chains and shackles and kept under guard. But he would break the restraints and be driven by the demon into deserted places.)

Then all the people from the region surrounding the Gerasenes asked Jesus to leave them, because they were terrified. So he got into a boat and started back.

They started laughing at Him, because they knew she was dead.

Then an argument started among them about who would be the greatest of them.

saying, ‘This man started to build and wasn’t able to finish.’

The people at the front of the crowd sternly told him to be quiet, but he started shouting even louder, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"

So he accepted the offer and started looking for a good opportunity to betray Him to them when the crowd was not present.

A dispute also started among them over which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.

The men who were holding Jesus started mocking and beating Him.

But they kept insisting, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, from Galilee where He started even to here.”

(This was a man who had been thrown into prison for an insurrection started in the city, and for murder.)
