Matthew 8:18 Douay-Rheims

And Jesus seeing great multitudes about him, gave orders to pass over the water.

John Chrysostom

A.D. 347–407 Patristic

Observe that He does not dismiss the multitudes, that He may not offend them. He did say to them, Depart ye, but bade His disciples go away from thence, thus the crowds might hope to be able to follow.
