He warned them not to tell others about him.
There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.Ecclesiastes 1:11 KJV
This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah:Matthew 12:17 NIV
Aware of this, Jesus withdrew from that place. A large crowd followed him, and he healed all who were ill.Matthew 12:15 NIV
