6 and the Pharisees having gone forth, immediately, with the Herodians, were taking counsel against him how they might destroy him.
7 And Jesus withdrew with his disciples unto the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judea, 8 and from Jerusalem, and from Idumea and beyond the Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon—a great multitude—having heard how great things he was doing, came unto him. 9 And he said to his disciples that a little boat may wait on him, because of the multitude, that they may not press upon him, 10 for he did heal many, so that they threw themselves on him, in order to touch him—as many as had plagues; 11 and the unclean spirits, when they were seeing him, were falling down before him, and were crying, saying—'Thou art the Son of God;' 12 and many times he was charging them that they might not make him manifest.

Commentary on Mark 3:6-12
(Read Mark 3:6-12)
All our sicknesses and calamities spring from the anger of God against our sins. Their removal, or the making them blessings to us, was purchased to us by the blood of Christ. But the plagues and diseases of our souls, of our hearts, are chiefly to be dreaded; and He can heal them also by a word. May more and more press to Christ to be healed of these plagues, and to be delivered from the enemies of their souls.
