Chapter 6:53-56 Healing at Gennesaret

6:53 And when they had passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore.
The land of Gennesaret - This country lay on the coast of the sea of Galilee: it is described by Josephus as being exceedingly pleasant and fertile. It had its name of Gennesaret from גן, gen, a garden, and סר sar, a prince, either because the king had a garden there, or because of its great fertility.

6:54 And when they were come out of the ship, straightway they knew Him,
And when they were come out of the ship - Christ and his disciples, and were ashore.

6:55 And ran through that whole region round about, and began to carry about in beds those that were sick, where they heard He was.
And ran through that whole region round about - That is, the inhabitants of that part of the country where Christ landed, ran many of them themselves, and others sent messengers into all parts of it, on every side: and began to carry about in beds those that were sick; or lame, or so disordered that they could not walk, or bear any other way of being carried: these they brought to Him.

6:56 And whithersoever He entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought Him that they might touch if it were but the border of His garment: and as many as touched Him were made whole.

And whithersoever He entered, into villages, or cities, or country -  Whether in smaller towns, or larger cities, or the fields, where were houses, here and there one: they laid the sick in the streets; or "markets", in any public places:
and besought Him that they but might touch the border of His garment; if they might not be admitted to touch His person, or He did not choose to lay His hands on them: and as many as touched Him; or "it", the border of His garment, as they desired: were made whole; of whatsoever sickness, or disease, they were afflicted with.
