Mark 6:41

41 καὶ λαβὼν τοὺς πέντε ἄρτους καὶ τοὺς δύο ἰχθύας ἀναβλέψας εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν εὐλόγησεν καὶ κατέκλασεν τοὺς ἄρτους καὶ ἐδίδου τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ ἵνα παρατιθῶσιν αὐτοῖς, καὶ τοὺς δύο ἰχθύας ἐμέρισεν πᾶσιν.

Mark 6:41 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 6:41

And when he had taken the five loaves and two fishes
Out of the hands of those that brought them into his own:

he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves:
(See Gill on Matthew 14:19),

and gave them to his disciples to set before them;
the multitude, in order to eat of them:

and the two fishes divided he among them all;
that every one might have a part. The Syriac and Persic versions read, they divided; that is, the apostles.
