 Jesus was always trying to retreat, take a break, and that never really happened. I don't know. Maybe Mark was always really trying to take a break. And so we kind of get that idea from Mark's gospel. But it would be a way. He would make his way up north to the Gentile area. It would be a way for Jesus to practice what he was teaching the disciples about being there. Well, just no difference between Jews and Gentiles when it came to the gospel and to the kingdom of God. All sinners need a Savior.
