Context of Matthew 14:34
32When they got into the boat, the wind stopped blowing. 33The men in the boat bowed down in front of Jesus and said, “You are truly the Son of God.” They crossed the sea and landed at Gennesaret. 35The men there recognized Jesus and sent messengers all around the countryside. The people brought him everyone who was sick. 36They begged him to let them touch just the edge of his clothes. Everyone who touched his clothes was made well.
