Gill's Notes on the Bible
In those days,.... The Ethiopic version reads, on that day; as if it was on the same day that the deaf man was healed; and so it might be; and on the third day from Christ's coming into those parts; and so is very properly expressed, "in those days"; see Mark 7:31, compared with the following verse:
the multitude being very great: for the number of men that ate, when the following miracle was wrought, were about four thousand; see Mark 8:9. The Vulgate Latin, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions add, "again"; referring to the former miracle of the five thousand, who were fed with five loaves, and two fishes, Mark 6:44.
And having nothing to eat; what they might have brought with them being expended, and they in a desert, where nothing was to be had, nor bought for money:
Jesus called his disciples to him, and saith unto them;
Mark 6:44- :.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER VIII.
Four thousand persons fed with seven loaves and a few small
fishes, 1-8.
Christ refuses to give any farther sign to the impertinent
Pharisees, 10-12.
Warns his disciples against the corrupt doctrine of the
Pharisees and of Herod, 13-21.
He restores sight to a blind man, 22-26.
Asks his disciples what the public thought of him, 27-30.
Acknowledges himself to be the Christ, and that he must suffer,
31-33.
And shows that all his genuine disciples must take up their
cross, suffer in his cause, and confess him before men, 34-38.
NOTES ON CHAP. VIII.
Verse Mark 8:1. The multitude being very great — Or rather, There was again a great multitude. Instead of ÏαμÏÎ¿Î»Î»Î¿Ï , very great, I read Ïαλιν ÏÎ¿Î»Î»Î¿Ï , again a great, which is the reading of BDGLM, fourteen others, all the Arabic, Coptic, AEthiopic, Armenian, Gothic, Vulgate, and Itala, and of many Evangelistaria. Griesbach approves of this reading. There had been such a multitude gathered together once before, who were fed in the same way. See Mark 6:34, &c.
