Matthew 16:10

10 nor the 4,000 and the seven loaves, and how many hampers you carried away?

Matthew 16:10 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 16:10

Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand
Have you forgot the other miracle done but a very little while ago, when I fed four thousand men, beside women and children, with seven loaves and a few small fishes;

and how many baskets ye took up?
no less than seven large baskets; and am I not able to provide for you? distress not yourselves about this matter; give not way to unbelief, which must argue great stupidity and insensibility.

Matthew 16:10 In-Context

8 Jesus perceived this and said, "Why are you reasoning among yourselves, you men of little faith, because you have no bread?
9 Do you not yet understand? nor even remember the 5,000 and the five loaves, and how many basketfuls you carried away,
10 nor the 4,000 and the seven loaves, and how many hampers you carried away?
11 How is it you do not understand that it was not about bread that I spoke to you? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees."
12 Then they perceived that He had not warned them against bread-yeast, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
