“And when they had passed over, they came into the land of Gennesaret, and drew to the shore.”
When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and anchored there — the planned destination was Bethsaida (verse 45) but the wind and the sea-crossing miracle have brought them to Gennesaret on the western shore of the lake. The change of destination is not explained — navigating with a contrary wind that suddenly died may have put them off course. Gennesaret is the fertile plain on the northwest shore of the lake.
