Mateo 16:8

8 Pero Jesús, dándose cuenta, dijo: Hombres de poca fe, ¿por qué discutís entre vosotros que no tenéis pan?

Mateo 16:8 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 16:8

Which when Jesus perceived
Without hearing any of their debates, but by his omniscience; for he knew the doubts and unbelief, and anxious solicitude of their minds, as well as their private reasonings one with another:

he said unto them, O ye of little faith;
a phrase used upon a like occasion, when he would dissuade his disciples from an anxious distressing care about a livelihood, ( Matthew 6:30 ) (See Gill on Matthew 6:30):

why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
blaming one another for your negligence and forgetfulness in this matter; distressing your minds, as if you should be famished and starved, because ye have not brought a quantity of bread, as you used to do with you.

Mateo 16:8 In-Context

6 Y Jesús les dijo: Estad atentos y guardaos de la levadura de los fariseos y saduceos.
7 Y ellos discutían entre sí, diciendo: Lo dice porque no tomamos panes.
8 Pero Jesús, dándose cuenta, dijo: Hombres de poca fe, ¿por qué discutís entre vosotros que no tenéis pan?
9 ¿Todavía no entendéis ni recordáis los cinco panes de los cinco mil, y cuántas cestas recogisteis?
10 ¿Ni los siete panes de los cuatro mil, y cuántas canastas recogisteis?
