warning them not to make Him known.

Matthew 12:16 in context

The verses around it, from Matthew 12.

12 How much more valuable is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath.”

13 Then Jesus said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” So he stretched it out, and it was restored to full use, just like the other.

14 But the Pharisees went out and plotted how they might kill Jesus.

15 Aware of this, Jesus withdrew from that place. Large crowds followed Him, and He healed them all,

16 warning them not to make Him known.

17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:

18 “Here is My Servant, whom I have chosen, My beloved, in whom My soul delights. I will put My Spirit on Him, and He will proclaim justice to the nations.

19 He will not quarrel or cry out; no one will hear His voice in the streets.

20 A bruised reed He will not break, and a smoldering wick He will not extinguish, till He leads justice to victory.
