John Calvin Commentary Mark 8:26

"And he sent him away to his home, saying, Do not even enter into the village." — Mark 8:26 (ASV)

And he sent him away to his house. Christ does not allow him to return to Bethsaida, where there were many who had seen the miracle. It is conjectured by some that this was done because Christ intended to punish the inhabitants of that place by depriving them of the enjoyment of his favor. Whatever the reason might be, it is certain that no miracle was performed by him to remain perpetually buried, but that he intended to have it concealed along with many others, until, after having expiated the sins of the world by his death,⁴³⁵ he would ascend to the glory of the Father.

⁴³⁵ “Iusques a ce qu’ayant par sa mort accompli la satisfaction des pechez du monde;” — “till having by his death rendered full satisfaction for the sins of the world.”;” — “till having by his death rendered full satisfaction for the sins of the world.”
