The setting is likely the region of Gennesaret, a fertile plain on the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee. The Sea of Galilee was a central location for Jesus' ministry, and boats were a common mode of transportation. The disciples' frequent use of boats underscores the itinerant nature of Jesus' ministry. This phrase also highlights the urgency and anticipation surrounding Jesus' movements, as His reputation had spread widely.<p><b>the people recognized Jesus</b><br>The recognition of Jesus by the people suggests His growing fame and the impact of His previous miracles and teachings. This recognition is significant because it demonstrates the widespread awareness of His ministry and the expectation of His miraculous power. The people's response to Jesus often involved bringing the sick to Him for healing, as seen in other Gospel accounts. This recognition also fulfills the prophetic anticipation of a Messiah who would perform signs and wonders, as foretold in passages like <a href="/isaiah/35-5.htm">Isaiah 35:5-6</a>.
