Reading just a little bit above that,
-
Jesus is disputing with the Pharisees and verse 14 says,
-
"But the Pharisees went out and
-
conspired against him how to destroy him,"
-
another threat this time from the Pharisees against Jesus.
-
Verse 15, "When Jesus became aware of this he departed,"
-
again he withdrew, there's that word again,
-
"Many crowds followed Him
-
and He cured all them,
-
and He ordered them not to make him known.
-
This was to fulfill...."
-
Notice again Jesus withdraws in the face of danger
