1: ἐκνεύω

(Strong's #1593 — Verb — ekneuo — ek-nyoo'-o )

primarily, "to bend to one side, to turn aside;" then "to take onself away, withdraw," is found in John 5:13 , of Christ's "conveying" Himself away from one place to another. Some have regarded the verb as having the same meaning as ekneo, "to escape," as from peril, "slip away secretly;" but the Lord did not leave the place where He had healed the paralytic in order to escape danger, but to avoid the applause of the throng.
