1. Mark 8:13 (ESV)
  2. Exposition

Where is the "other side" where Jesus went after he left the Pharisees?

Mark 8:13 (ESV)

13 And he left them, got into the boat again, and went to the other side.

In this case, the other side refers to the shore on the eastern side of the Sea of Galilee. This is where the town of Bethsaida is located (Mark 8:22).
