Contextual Overview
1 In those days, there being, again a large multitude, and they not having any thing to eat, calling near the disciples, he saith unto them - 2 I am moved with compassion towards the multitude, because, already three days, abide they with me, and they have nothing to eat; 3 and, if dismiss them fasting unto their home, they will be exhausted in the way, - and, certain of them, are, from afar. 4 And his disciples answered him - Whence shall any one be able, here, to fill, these, with bread, in a desert? 5 And he was questioning them - How many loaves have ye? and they said - Seven. 6 And he sendeth word to the multitude, to fall back upon the ground. And, taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, he brake, and was giving unto his disciples, that they might be setting before them; and they set before the multitude. 7 And they had a few small fishes; and, blessing them, he bade them set, these also, before them. 8 And they did eat, and were filled, and took up remainders of broken pieces, seven hampers. 9 Now they were about four thousand; and he dismissed them.
