Withdrew to the sea ( anechōrēsen eis tēn thalassan ).

Evidently Jesus knew of the plot to kill him, "perceiving it"(Mat 12:15). "He and His would be safer by the open beach"(Swete). He has the disciples with him. Vincent notes that on eleven occasions Mark mentions the withdrawals of Jesus to escape his enemies, for prayer, for rest, for private conference with his disciples (Mar 1:12; Mar 3:7; Mar 6:31, Mar 6:46; Mar 7:24, Mar 7:31; Mar 9:2; Mar 10:1; Mar 14:34). But, as often, a great multitude (polu plēthos ) from Galilee followed him.

Vincent: Mar 3:7 - Withdrew

Withdrew

Mark alone notes no less than eleven occasions on which Jesus retired from his work, in order to escape his enemies or to pray in solitude, for rest, or for private conference with his disciples. See Mar 1:12; Mar 3:7; Mar 6:31, Mar 6:46; Mar 7:24, Mar 7:31; Mar 9:2; Mar 10:1; Mar 14:34.

Vincent: Mar 3:7 - A great multitude

A great multitude ( πολὺ πλῆθος )

Compare Mar 3:8, where the order of the Greek words is reversed. In the former case the greatness of the mass of people is emphasized; in the latter, the mass of people itself

Poole: Mar 3:6-12

Ver. 6-12. Who these Herodians were we cannot learn plainly from holy writ; it is most probable that they were a civil faction, who took Herod’ s part, and were stiff for promoting his interest, and the interest of the Roman emperor, whose substitute Herod was. With these the Pharisees (in other cases their implacable enemies) mix counsels how they might destroy Christ. Christ gives place to their fury, his time being not yet come, and withdraweth himself from their sight, being followed by great multitudes, who in the fame of his miracles, or the hopes they had of receiving some good from him for themselves or for their friends, drew after him. Some of these are said to have come from Idumea, which was the country of Edom, and distinct from Judea anciently, as may be gathered from Jos 15:1 , and Num 34:3 , but whether it was at this time so or no, is doubted. Our Lord commandeth the devils not to make him known, not desiring any such preachers.

Gill: Mar 3:7 - But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea // and a great multitude from Galilee // and from Judea

But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea,.... Knowing their evil designs against him, he departed out of the synagogue, and city of Capernaum; and taking his disciples with him, he went to the shore of the sea of Galilee; not out of fear, but because his time was not yet come, and he had more work to do:

and a great multitude from Galilee: from the several parts of it, in which country he now was:

and from Judea: that part of the land of Israel, which was particularly so called, and belonged to the tribe of Judah.
