Such miracles were unprecedented and served as a testament to Jesus' divine authority and power. In the context of first-century Judea, news of miraculous events would spread rapidly by word of mouth, as there were no modern means of communication. This phrase highlights the impact of Jesus' ministry and the growing awareness of His works among the people.<p><b>spread throughout</b><br>The rapid dissemination of news in ancient times relied heavily on oral communication. The phrase indicates the widespread nature of the news, suggesting that it reached a broad audience. This reflects the communal nature of society at the time, where news would be shared in marketplaces, synagogues, and homes. The spreading of such news would have contributed to the growing crowds that followed Jesus, eager to witness His teachings and miracles.<p><b>that region</b><br>The region referred to here is likely Galilee, where much of Jesus' early ministry took place. Galilee was a densely populated area with a mix of Jewish and Gentile communities. The spread of news throughout this region underscores the geographical reach of Jesus' influence. Galilee's location, with its proximity to major trade routes, would facilitate the rapid spread of information. This also sets the stage for the broader mission of Jesus, as His fame begins to extend beyond local boundaries, fulfilling prophecies about the Messiah's impact on both Jews and Gentiles.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jesus_christ.htm">Jesus Christ</a></b><br>The central figure in this passage, Jesus is performing miracles and teaching, demonstrating His divine authority and compassion.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_region.htm">The Region</a></b><br>This refers to the area around Capernaum and Galilee, where Jesus conducted much of His early ministry.
