'Crowd' in the Bible

Now when Jesus saw a crowd around Him, He gave orders to depart to the other side of the sea.

When the crowd saw this, they were afraid and honored God who had given such authority to men.

When Jesus came to the leader’s house, He saw the flute players and a crowd lamenting loudly.

But when the crowd had been put outside, He went in and took her by the hand, and the girl got up.

While they were going away, Jesus began to speak to the crowd about John: "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?

While He was still addressing the people His mother and His brothers were standing on the edge of the crowd desiring to speak to Him.

Such large crowds gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat down, while the whole crowd stood on the shore.

Though he wanted to kill him, he feared the crowd, since they regarded him as a prophet.

Now when Jesus heard this he went away from there privately in a boat to an isolated place. But when the crowd heard about it, they followed him on foot from the towns.

As He stepped ashore, He saw a huge crowd, felt compassion for them, and healed their sick.

Summoning the crowd, He told them, “Listen and understand:

So the crowd was amazed when they saw those unable to speak talking, the deformed restored, the lame walking, and the blind seeing. And they gave glory to the God of Israel.

Now Jesus summoned His disciples and said, “I have compassion on the crowd, because they’ve already stayed with Me three days and have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away hungry; otherwise they might collapse on the way.”

The disciples said to Him, “Where could we get enough bread in this desolate place to fill such a crowd?”

After commanding the crowd to sit down on the ground,

and having taken the seven loaves and the fishes, having given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples, and the disciples to the crowd.

After sending away the crowd, he got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.

When they reached the crowd, a man approached and knelt down before Him.

As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Him.

The crowd told them to keep quiet, but they cried out all the more, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!”

A very large crowd spread their robes on the road; others were cutting branches from the trees and spreading them on the road.

But if we say, ‘From men,’ we’re afraid of the crowd, because everyone thought John was a prophet.”

All the crowd heard this, and were filled with amazement at His teaching.

Just then, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived. A large crowd armed with swords and clubs was with him. They were from the high priests and elders of the people.

At that moment Jesus said to the crowd, "Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest me like you would an outlaw? Day after day I sat teaching in the temple courts, yet you did not arrest me.

At the festival the governor’s custom was to release to the crowd a prisoner they wanted.

The High Priests, however, and the Elders urged the crowd to ask for Barabbas and to demand the death of Jesus.

When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that a riot was starting instead, he took some water, washed his hands in front of the crowd, and said, “I am innocent of this man’s blood. See to it yourselves!”
