his disciples,
let us pass over to the other side :
that is, of the sea of Galilee, or lake of Gennesaret, to the country of the Gadarenes, and Gergesenes; with a view for retirement and rest, after the fatigue of the day; and for the trial of the faith of his disciples, by a storm which he knew would arise, while they were on the sea; and for the sake of a miracle he was to work on the other side, after related.
