Luke 4:42-44

Withdrawal from Capernaum (Mark 1:35-39). γενομένης ἡμέρας, when it was day, i.e., when people were up and could see Jesus' movements, and accordingly followed Him. In Mk. Jesus departed very early before dawn, when all would be in bed; a kind of flight. οἱ ὄχλοι : in Mk. Simon and those with him, other disciples. But of disciples Lk. as yet knows nothing. ἕως αὐτοῦ, to the place where He was. From the direction in which they had seen Him depart they had no difficulty in finding Him. κατεῖχον, they held Him back, from doing what He seemed inclined to do, i.e., from leaving them, with some of their sick still unhealed.
