Mark 1:28, 37, 44-45

So the reports about Jesus spread like wildfire throughout every community in Galilee.

and when they finally tracked him down, they told him, “Everyone is looking for you—they want you!”

saying, “Don’t say anything to anyone about what just happened, but go find a priest and show him that you’ve been healed. Then bring the offering that Moses commanded for your cleansing as a living testimony to everyone.” But no sooner did the man leave than he began to proclaim his healing publicly and tell the story everywhere. Jesus’ growing fame prevented him from entering the villages openly, which forced him to remain in isolated places. Even so, a steady stream of people flocked to him from everywhere.
