'Countryside' in the Bible

People from the whole Judean countryside and all of Jerusalem were going out to him, and he was baptizing them in the Jordan River as they confessed their sins.

Now the herdsmen ran off and spread the news in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.

Send them away so that they can go into the surrounding countryside and villages and buy something for themselves to eat."

And wherever he would go -- into villages, towns, or countryside -- they would place the sick in the marketplaces, and would ask him if they could just touch the edge of his cloak, and all who touched it were healed.

Then Jesus, in the power of the Spirit, returned to Galilee, and news about him spread throughout the surrounding countryside.

When the herdsmen saw what had happened, they ran off and spread the news in the town and countryside.

Now the day began to draw to a close, so the twelve came and said to Jesus, "Send the crowd away, so they can go into the surrounding villages and countryside and find lodging and food, because we are in an isolated place."
