29. Healing of many in Gennesaret (Matthew 14:34-36; Mark 6:53-56)

After Jesus performed the miracle of walking on water, on the Sea of Galilee, he and his disciples anchored their boat on the shore at the town of Gennesaret. The residents there recognized Jesus and went to him to be miraculously healed of various ailments. Even the people who touched Jesus' clothing were healed.

As explained in the Gospel of Mark:

53 When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret and moored to the shore. 54 When they had come out of the boat, immediately the people recognized him, 55 and ran around that whole region, and began to bring those who were sick on their mats to where they heard he was. 56 Wherever he entered-into villages, or into cities, or into the country-they laid the sick in the marketplaces and begged him that they might just touch the fringe of his garment; and as many as touched him were made well. (Mark 6:53-56, WEB)
