# 6 Account of Jesus Healing in Group Settings

At Genneserat

Mark 6:53-56 (New International Version)

(Also found in Matthew 14: 34-36)

53When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and anchored there. 54As soon as they got out of the boat, people recognized Jesus. 55They ran throughout that whole region and carried the sick on mats to wherever they heard he was. 56And wherever he went—into villages, towns or countryside—they placed the sick in the marketplaces. They begged him to let them touch even the edge of his cloak, and all who touched him were healed.



Reflection: "They begged him to let them touch even the edge of his cloak, and all who touched him were healed." What was this power of Christ, that even the touch of His cloak was healing? We see this same healing in Peter in Acts. Just the touch of His cloak was healing. How wonderful!
