Mark 3:9 in Context — Mark 3

7 E Jesus retirou-se com os seus discípulos para o mar; e seguiu-o uma grande multidão da Galileia, da Judeia,

8 de Jerusalém, da Idumeia, dalém do Jordão, e os das proximidades de Tiro e de Sidom; uma grande multidão, tendo ouvido quão grandes coisas fazia, vieram a ele.

9 E disse aos seus discípulos que um barquinho ficasse continuamente perto dele, por causa das multidões; para que não o apertassem.

10 Pois havia curado muitos, de maneira que todos quantos tinham algum mal lançavam-se sobre ele a fim de tocá-lo.

11 E os espíritos imundos, quando o viam, prostravam-se diante dele, e exclamavam: Tu és o Filho de Deus.
