Quick answer
Jesus and his disciples cross by boat to the region of Dalmanutha. The narrative moves toward a confrontation with the Pharisees.
Overview
Dalmanutha (near Magadan/Magdala) was on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee. The transition shows Jesus continuing his itinerant ministry. The setting prepares for the contrast between the crowds' eager reception and the religious leaders' hardened unbelief that follows.
