King James Bible
"When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus."
The crowds discover both Jesus and his followers have departed from the eastern shore where the feeding of the 5,000 occurred. This follows Jesus walking on water to his disciples during the night, leaving the multitude behind who had wanted to make him king by force. The people board boats to cross the Sea of Galilee, demonstrating their determination to find Jesus. Their pursuit requires effort and resources, suggesting their strong desire for what they believe Jesus can provide. Capernaum served as Jesus' ministry headquarters, making it the logical destination for those searching for him. This sets up the subsequent bread of life discourse, where Jesus will challenge their motivations for seeking him.
