This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Mat 19:1. Ἐτέλεσεν, κ.τ.λ., finished, etc.) All the discourses addressed to the people in Galilee have a great connection with each other, and form a perfect course.[851]-ΜΕΤῆΡΕΝ, he departed[852]) having concluded His perambulation through Galilee.[853]

[851] He was wont to break off nothing abruptly, but to bring all things to a complete conclusion; ch. Mat 26:1.-V. g.

[852] “Migravit.” Cf. Gnomon and footnotes on ch. Mat 13:53, where the same word occurs.-(I. B.)

[853] We may reasonably infer, from this departure, that the events which are recorded, Luk 13:31 to Luk 18:14 (for Jesus was not wont to stay long in Samaria), occurred in the space of those three days, of which mention occurs in Luk 13:32.-Harm., p. 421.
