John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 8:6

And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground ,.... See Gill on Matthew 15:35 ; and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and brake them ; See Gill on Matthew 15:36 ; and gave to his disciples to set before them , the multitude, and they did set them before the people ; in which they were obedient to their Lord's commands, though they were so forgetful, unbelieving, and stupid. read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 8:7

And they had a few small fishes ,.... Which they also acquainted Christ with, and brought out unto him: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them . It looks, by this account, as if the fishes were blessed, and brake, and distributed separately, alter the blessing, breaking, and distribution of the bread; and so the Syriac version renders it, "upon whom also he blessed"; and the Persic thus, "and he also blessed the fishes"; but, according to Matthew they were both... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 8:8

So they did eat, and were filled ,.... Christ and his disciples, and the whole multitude: they not only had some, but they had all enough, a full meal. It was surprising that it could be divided so, is that every one should have a bit; but that they should all be satisfied to the full, is amazing: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets ; as many as there were loaves; See Gill on Matthew 15:37 . read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 8:9

And they that had eaten were about four thousand ,.... That is, men, besides women and children, as Matthew observes; See Gill on Matthew 15:38 . and he sent them away ; some that came dumb, with their speech, and deaf, with their hearing; others that were maimed, with perfect healing of their wounds, and with their limbs sound and whole; others that came lame, he dismissed leaping; and others that were blind, with their sight restored to them, and all of them full. read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 8:10

And straightway he entered into a ship, with his disciples ,.... As soon as ever he had, dismissed the multitude, he took shipping with his disciples; for he was at the sea of Galilee, either at a place near it, or upon the shore of it; see Mark 7:31 ; and came into the parts of Dalmanutha ; which Matthew calls, "the coasts of Magdala"; See Gill on Matthew 15:39 . The Arabic version reads it, "Magdal"; and in two of Beza's copies it is read, "Madegada"; but the Syriac version reads,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 8:11

And the Pharisees came forth ,.... Out of their houses; who dwelt in the coasts of Magdala, and parts of Dalmanutha, and came to Jesus, hearing of his being arrived in their neighbourhood: and began to question with him ; or to dispute with him, it being their manner to carry on disputations by questions and answers. The Persic version has the question they put, and about which they disputed, "if thou art the Christ"; in proof of which they required a sign: seeking of him a sign from... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 8:12

And he sighed deeply in his Spirit ,.... In his human soul; and which shows that he had one, and was subject to grief and sorrow, and all passions and infirmities, excepting sin. This deep sigh was on account of the hardness of their hearts, the malignity of their minds, and insincerity of their intentions; who had no view to come at truth by this inquiry, but to ensnare him: and saith, why doth this generation seek after a sign ? when so many have been shown among them, and they will... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 8:13

And he left them ,.... As a perverse and hardened generation of men, and as such with whom it was not worth while to discourse: and entering into the ship again ; which brought him over, and waited for him: departed to the other side ; of the sea of Galilee, towards Bethsaida, Mark 8:22 . read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 8:14

Now the disciples had, forgotten to take bread ,.... At Dalmanutha, or Magdala, or whatever place in those parts they were at, before they took shipping, as was their usual method. Neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf ; for thirteen passengers of them. The Persic version reads the whole thus: "and they forgot to take bread with them, not indeed one loaf, and there was no bread with them in the ship"; See Gill on Matthew 16:5 . read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Mark 8:15

And he charged them ,.... When they were in the ship, and had just recollected themselves, that they had took no care to bring any provisions with them: saying, take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees; and of the leaven of Herod : in Matthew, instead of "the leaven of Herod", it is read, "the leaven of the Sadducees": which are either the same, Herod and his courtiers being Sadducees, or favourers of them; or the Sadducees being sticklers for Herod, and his government, which the... read more
