35 And when the men of that place had knowledge of him, they sent out into all that country round about, and brought unto him all that were diseased;
35 And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding country. People brought all their sick to him
35 And when the men of that place recognized him, they sent around to all that region and brought to him all who were sick
35 When the people got wind that he was back, they sent out word through the neighborhood and rounded up all the sick,
35 And when the men of that place recognized Him, they sent out into all that surrounding region, brought to Him all who were sick,
35 When the people recognized Jesus, the news of his arrival spread quickly throughout the whole area, and soon people were bringing all their sick to be healed.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Matthew 14:35
Commentary on Matthew 14:34-36
(Read Matthew 14:34-36)
Whithersoever Christ went, he was doing good. They brought unto him all that were diseased. They came humbly beseeching him to help them. The experiences of others may direct and encourage us in seeking for Christ. As many as touched, were made perfectly whole. Those whom Christ heals, he heals perfectly. Were men more acquainted with Christ, and with the diseased state of their souls, they would flock to receive his healing influences. The healing virtue was not in the finger, but in their faith; or rather, it was in Christ, whom their faith took hold upon.
