Matthew 14
We read that after John the Baptist was beheaded, that -
"When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place apart..." (Matthew 14:13)
Though the Savior was the Son of God possessing great power and control, in my mind, you kind of sense his humanity hearing of His friends death. It seems to me, like many in mourning, He wanted to just get away.
