These things happened in Bethany<n id="1" /> across the Jordan River<n id="2" /> where John was baptizing.p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">After this<n id="1" /> Jesus went away to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (also called the Sea of Tiberias).<n id="2" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">When they found him on the other side of the lake,<n id="1" /> they said to him, &#8220;Rabbi, when did you get here?&#8221;<n id="2" />

got into a boat, and started to cross the lake<n id="1" /> to Capernaum.<n id="2" /> (It had already become dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.)<n id="3" />

<p class="bodytext">Jesus<n id="1" /> went back across the Jordan River<n id="2" /> again to the place where John<n id="3" /> had been baptizing at an earlier time,<n id="4" /> and he stayed there.

So they came to John and said to him, &#8220;Rabbi, the one who was with you on the other side of the Jordan River,<n id="1" /> about whom you testified &#8211; see, he is baptizing, and everyone is flocking to him!&#8221;p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">When he had said these things,<n id="1" /> Jesus went out with his disciples across the Kidron Valley.<n id="2" /> There was an orchard<n id="3" /> there, and he and his disciples went into it.

<p class="bodytext">The next day the crowd that remained on the other side of the lake<n id="1" /> realized that only one small boat<n id="2" /> had been there, and that Jesus had not boarded<n id="3" /> it with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away alone.
