And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many of his disciples went with him, and much people.
Note 1 at Lk. 7:11: Nain was a city located about 21 miles southwest of Capernaum. Luke makes it clear that it was the day after Jesus had healed the centurion's servant in Capernaum (Lk. 7:1-2 with v. 11) that He entered into Nain. The roads Jesus must have taken went around Mt. Tabor so that the actual trip was 21 miles. Jesus and His disciples might have spent the night along the way or they could have made the trip in one day. Either way, this instance shows us that Jesus was in good physical shape and nothing like the effeminate image that many have imagined Him to be.
