These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing.

And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with thee beyond Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, the same baptizeth, and all men come to him.

After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.

Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.
