The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 14:13-21

The feeding effective thousand. I. THE LORD 'S DEPARTURE FROM GALILEE . 1 . He went by ship into a desert place. His apostles had returned from their mission ( Luke 9:10 ); they needed rest, "for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat." He had also heard of Herod's superstitious fears, and that he was desirous to see him. The Lord would not meet the tyrant; he departed out of his tetrarchy. He crossed the lake to a place near Bethsaida... read more

.— The sacrament miracle. Distinguish this miracle of the feeding the five thousand, so glorious in all its incidents, and with its full fourfold narration, from that of the feeding the four thousand, recorded by Matthew ( Matthew 15:32-39 ) and Mark ( Mark 8:1-9 ) only. Lead to the consideration of this miracle by dwelling briefly on— I. THE MOTIVES OF THIS MIRACLE , There was one leading motive—a kind human compassion, a condescending memory of the bodily want of the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 14:13-21

The table in the wilderness. Jesus had several reasons for his crossing the lake to the desert of Bethsaida. 1 . He was there out of the jurisdiction of Herod. 2 . He avoided the pressure of the people and gained some leisure to converse with his disciples newly returned from their progress. 3 . He intended to spread before the multitude a table in the wilderness. He knew that the people would follow him. Note: Jesus sometimes leaves us that we may follow him. He lures us into... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 14:14

The first half of this verse is found verbally in Mark ( Mark 6:34 ); comp. also Matthew 9:36 , note. And Jesus went forth; came forth (Revised Version); i.e. from the more retired place where he had been conversing with his disciples. And saw a great multitude. "The multitudes" of Matthew 9:13 have now become one body. And was moved with compassion toward them; and he had compassion on them (Revised Version). The true reading, ἐπ αὐτοῖς , regards the Lord's pity... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 14:15

And when it was evening. But not as late as the "evening" of Matthew 14:23 . It appears that the first evening was from the ninth to the twelfth hour (our 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the equinoxes), and the second evening was for a short time, perhaps forty minutes, after sunset (cf. Matthew 8:16 , note). His ( the, Revised Version) disciples came to him, saying. St. John alone has recorded our Lord's previous conversation with Philip ( John 6:5-7 ). This is a desert place; the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 14:15-21

Jesus feeding the multitude. On the death of John the Baptist Jesus retired to the eastern side of the lake, oppressed with grief and longing for a time of seclusion. But it was one of his trials that he was forbidden the rest of privacy when he most craved it. The crowds followed him with such enthusiasm that they quite forgot to provide themselves with needful food, and therefore when the evening was come they were out among the lonely mountains faint and hurry. Jesus had not brought about... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 14:16

But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; they have no need to go away (Revised Version). Matthew only. The Lord takes up the expression. There is no need for them to move from this place, desert though it is. Give ye them to eat. Ye ; emphatic, he throws upon his disciples the duty of feeding them, and, strange though the command seemed to them (cf. 2 Kings 4:43 ), they carried it out. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 14:13-14

Matthew 14:13-14. When Jesus heard it, he departed thence It appears from Mark 6:30, that the disciples of John arrived with the news of their master’s death at, or immediately after, the time when the apostles returned from their mission, and gave Jesus an account of the miracles which they had performed, and of the success of their ministry. Perhaps tidings of John’s death had reached them before their return, and had caused them to hasten it. Be this as it may, it is probable that the... read more

Matthew 14:15-18. And when it was evening his disciples came to him That is, the first evening, which began at three in the afternoon. That this is the meaning is plain from Matthew 14:23, where another evening is said to have come after the people were fed and dismissed. Accordingly, Mark says, they came when the day was now far spent; and Luke, when the day began to wear away: saying, This is a desert place Where there is neither food nor lodging to be had; and the time is now past... read more
