Contextual Overview

12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he and his mother and his brothers, and his disciples; and they remained there a few days. 13 And the Jewish passover was nearing; so Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 And he found in the temple those who were buying oxen and sheep and doves, and the money changers sitting. 15 And he made a whip of cord, and drove them all out of the temple, even the sheep and the oxen and the money changers; and he threw out their exchange money, and upset their trays; 16 And to those who sold doves he said, Take these away from here; do not make my Father''s house a house of trading. 17 And his disciples remembered that it is written, The zeal for your house has given me courage. 18 The Jews answered and said to him, What sign do you show us, that you are doing these things? 19 Jesus answered and said to them, Tear down this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20 The Jews said to him, It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days? 21 But he spoke concerning the temple of his body.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

After this he went down to Capernaum,.... After he had been at Cana, and at the wedding there: after he had wrought the miracle of turning water into wine; and after he had manifested forth the glory of his deity thereby, and had confirmed the faith of his disciples, he departed from thence, and went lower into the country of Galilee, to Capernaum, a city near the sea of Tiberias; and which, from henceforward, he made the more usual place of his residence, and whither he frequently resorted, and therefore it is called his city, Matthew 9:1. This refers not to the same journey recorded in Matthew 4:12, for that was after John was cast into prison, whereas this was before; see John 3:24; the company that went with him, are as follow,

he, and his mother; who had been with him at Cana, and was a principal person at the wedding: and she now returning home, he accompanies her, to see her to her own habitation; or to settle her in Capernaum, whilst he went about discharging his public ministry.

And his brethren; or near kinsmen, according to the flesh, the sons of Alphaeus, or Cleophas, and Mary, sister to the mother of our Lord; whose names were James, Joses, Simon, and Judas, three of which afterwards became his apostles:

and his disciples: as many as he had yet called, which were Andrew, and the disciple that followed Jesus with him, and Simon Peter, and Philip, and Nathanael,

and they continued there not many days; not because of the impenitence, unbelief, and wickedness of the place, but for the reason following.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

To Capernaum - See the notes at Matthew 4:13.

Not many days - The reason why he remained there no longer was that the Passover was near, and they went up to Jerusalem to attend it.
