The disciples had forgotten to take any bread along and had only one loaf with them in the boat.
15
Jesus warned them, "Be careful! Watch out for the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod!"
16
They had been discussing with one another that they didn't have any bread.
17
Jesus knew what they were saying and asked them, "Why are you discussing the fact that you don't have any bread? Don't you understand yet? Don't you catch on? Are your minds closed?
18
Are you blind and deaf? Don't you remember?
19
When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets did you fill with leftover pieces?" They told him, "Twelve."
20
"When I broke the seven loaves for the four thousand, how many large baskets did you fill with leftover pieces?" They answered him, "Seven."
21
He asked them, "Don't you catch on yet?"
22
As they came to Bethsaida, some people brought a blind man to Jesus. They begged Jesus to touch him.
23
Jesus took the blind man's hand and led him out of the village. He spit into the man's eyes and placed his hands on him. Jesus asked him, "Can you see anything?"
24
The man looked up and said, "I see people. They look like trees walking around."
