Jesus continues to heal people. And they continue to wonder if He really is the Messiah or not. The people were looking for a political leader, not a suffering Messiah. As Jesus continued to heal, His popularity spread but not in the way it should. He was known for healing the physical, but people were ignoring the spiritual.
This is an ongoing theme in the gospels. It reminds me of the on-going theme of going one's separate way in the Old Testament. People experience God, but they refuse to believe. Look - God presents us with a choice - choose Him and gain eternal life. Choose yourself & all you have is what you can squeeze out of this life. As for me and my house, we will choose to serve the Lord.
