KB 10.41.19
After Akrūra’s departure, Lord Kṛṣṇa, Balarāma and the cowherd boys entered Mathurā to see the city.
Purport (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
In the afternoon, Krsna along with Balarama, surrounded by his cowherd friends (gopaih parivaritah), entered Mathura to see the city.
Purport (Jiva Goswami)
Kṛṣṇa went with his friends into the city.
Purport (Sanatana Goswami)
After Akrūra entered the city, the Lord, displaying his powers (bhagavān), who attracts all hearts (kṛṣṇaḥ), entered the city to give mercy to the inhabitants, by attracting their minds. He was endowed with the bhāva of attracting the hearts of devotees (saṅkārṣaṇānvitaḥ). Or he went with Balarāma, who had the same bhāva. In this way he would be happy in seeing the city. His friends like Śrīdāma served him. Or he was surrounded completely by them, since Balarāma or Nanda feared for his safety.
