'Surrounding' in the Bible

In addition, a large group came together from the towns surrounding Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.

they found out about it and fled to the Lycaonian towns called Lystra and Derbe, and to the surrounding countryside.

Now in the country surrounding that place were the lands belonging to the chief man of the island, by name Publius, who received us and gave us hospitality three days in a very friendly way.
