Mark 8:16 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 8:16

And they reasoned among themselves
Upon Christ's giving this caution, and recollecting with themselves, that they had forgot to buy any provisions, and take with them:

saying, it is because we have no bread;
that he says these words; tacitly chiding and reproving us, for our want of thought and care; (See Gill on Matthew 16:7).

Mark 8:16 In-Context

14 And they had taken no thought to get bread; and they had only one cake of bread with them in the boat.

15 And he said to them, Take care to be on the watch against the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.

16 And they said to one another, We have no bread.

17 And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Why are you reasoning among yourselves because you have no bread? do you still not see, and is it still not clear to you? are your hearts so hard?

18 Having eyes, do you not see? and having ears, have you no hearing? and have you no memory?
