Contextual Overview
1 At that time, as the company were very numerous, and had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples, and said, 2 I am concern'd for this people, they have been with me now three days without having had any thing to eat. 3 if I send them home fasting, they will faint by the way: for some of them are come very far. 4 his disciples answer'd, how is it possible here in the desart to furnish bread enough for all this company? 5 he ask'd them, how many loaves have ye? 6 seven, said they. then he order'd the people to sit down on the ground: and taking the seven loaves, he gave thanks, then broke them and gave them to his disciples to distribute among the people, which they accordingly did. 7 and there being a few small fishes, he gave thanks, and order'd them to be distributed. 8 so they all eat and were satisfied, the broken meat that was left amounting to seven baskets. 9 now they that had eaten were four thousand: and then he dismissed them.
