Contextual Overview
1 After these things, Jesus went away over the Sea of Galilee, the Tiberian Sea . 2 And a great crowd followed Him, for they saw His miraculous signs which He did on the sick ones. 3 And Jesus went up into the mountain and sat there with His disciples. 4 And the Passover was near, the feast of the Jews. 5 Then Jesus lifting up His eyes and seeing that a great crowd is coming to Him, He said to Philip, From where may we buy loaves that these may eat? 6 But He said this to test him, for He knew what He was about to do. 7 Philip answered Him, Loaves for two hundred denarii are not enough for them, that each of them may receive a little. 8 One of His disciples said to Him, Andrew the brother of Simon Peter, 9 A little boy is here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what are these for so many? 10 And Jesus said, Make the men to recline. And much grass was in the place. Then the men reclined, the number was about five thousand.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Jesus took the loaves,.... Into his hands, as also the fishes, in order to feed the multitude with them:
and when he had given thanks; for them, and blessed them, or implored a blessing on them, that they might be nourishing to the bodies of men, as was his usual manner, and which is an example to us;
he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were sat down. The Vulgate Latin, and all the Oriental versions, only read, "he distributed to them that were sat down": but it was not by his own hands, but by the means of the disciples, who received from him, and gave it to them; so that the sense is the same;
and likewise of the fishes, as much as they would; that is, they had as much, both of the bread and of the fishes, distributed to them, and which they took and ate, as they chose: in some printed copies it is read, "as much as he would", and so the Persic version; that is, as much as Jesus would; but the former is the true reading, and makes the miracle more illustrious.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse John 6:11. Jesus took the loaves — See the notes on Matthew 14:19-21. As there were five loaves and five thousand people, so there was one loaf to every thousand men, independently of the women and children.
