Mark 6:53
And when they had passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore.
And when they had passed over,.... The lake of Gennesaret, or sea of "Galilee",
they came into the land of Gennesaret; See Gill on "Matthew 14:34"; to Capernaum, as appears from John 6:17 for Capernaum was in the land of Gennesaret; to which agrees what Josephus says, that the land of Gennesaret was watered with a very excellent spring, which the inhabitants of that place called Capernaum {h}:
and drew to the shore: this is omitted in the Syriac and Persic versions: and the Arabic reads, "and they cast anchors".
