[1] And the Pharisees went out, and consulted together concerning him, that they [2] might destroy him. And Jesus perceived, and removed thence: and great multitudes [3] followed him; and he healed all of them:[Matthew 12:16] and he forbade them that they should [4] not make him known: that the saying in Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which said,

... continues his narrative, connecting it in the following manner with what precedes: “But the Pharisees went out and held a council against Him, how they might destroy Him.
