Contextual Overview
45 Immediately afterwards He made His disciples go on board the boat and cross over to Bethsaida, leaving Him behind to dismiss the crowd. 46 He then bade the people farewell, and went away up the hill to pray. 47 When evening was come, the boat was half way across the Lake, while he Himself was on shore alone. 48 But when He saw them distressed with rowing (for the wind was against them), towards morning He came towards them walking on the Lake, as if intending to pass them. 49 They saw Him walking on the water, and thinking that it was a spirit they cried out; 50 for they all saw Him and were terrified. He, however, immediately spoke to them. "There is no danger," He said; "it is I; be not alarmed." 51 Then He went up to them on board the boat, and the wind lulled; and they were beside themselves with silent amazement. 52 For they had not learned the lesson taught by the loaves, but their minds were dull. 53 Having crossed over they drew to land in Gennesaret and came to anchor. 54 But no sooner had they gone ashore than the people immediately recognized Him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And whithersoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or country,.... Whether in smaller towns, or larger cities, or the fields, where were houses, here and there one:
they laid the sick in the streets; or "markets", in any public places:
and besought him that they but might touch the border of his garment; if they might not be admitted to touch his person, or he did not choose to lay his hands on them:
and as many as touched him; or "it", the border of his garment, as they desired:
were made whole; of whatsoever sickness, or disease, they were afflicted with; :-.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 14:22-36.
Mark 6:52
They considered not the miracle of the loaves - They did not remember or call to mind the “power” which Jesus had shown in feeding the five thousand by a miracle, and that, having done that, he had power also to save them from the storm.
Their heart was hardened - Their “mind” was dull to perceive it. This does not mean that they were “opposed” to Jesus, or that they had what we denominate “hardness of heart,” but simply that they were slow to perceive his power. They did not quickly learn, as they ought to have done, that he had all power, and could therefore allay the storm. The word “heart” is frequently used in this sense. See Ephesians 1:18, in Greek; Romans 1:21; Romans 2:15; 2 Corinthians 4:6.
Mark 6:54
They knew him - They “recollected” Jesus, because he had been there before and worked miracles.
Mark 6:56
The border of his garment - Compare the notes at Matthew 9:20.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Mark 6:56. Villages — Probably small towns near cities.
Country — Villages at a distance from cities and large public towns. See the notes on Matthew 14:34-36.
Christ went about doing good - he confined his ministry and miracles to no place - wherever he went, they stood in need of his help; and whenever they required his assistance, they had it granted immediately. Our Lord's conduct, in these respects, is a perfect pattern for every preacher of his Gospel.
