Mateus 15:37

37 Assim todos comeram, e se fartaram; e do que sobejou dos pedaços levantaram sete alcofas cheias.

Mateus 15:37 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 15:37

And they did all eat, and were filled
Every one had a share of the provision, and that to full satisfaction; no one was overlooked and neglected, and everyone had as much as he could eat:

and they took up of the broken meat that was left, seven baskets
full.
The disciples, after they had distributed to everyone his portion, went round, and collected the remaining fragments, and filled seven baskets therewith, according to the number of the loaves which were broken; and so had a full return for the loaves and fishes they spared on this occasion.

Mateus 15:37 In-Context

35 E tendo ele ordenado ao povo que se sentasse no chão,

36 tomou os sete pães e os peixes, e havendo dado graças, partiu-os, e os entregava aos discípulos, e os discípulos á multidão.

37 Assim todos comeram, e se fartaram; e do que sobejou dos pedaços levantaram sete alcofas cheias.

38 Ora, os que tinham comido eram quatro mil homens além de mulheres e crianças.

39 E havendo Jesus despedido a multidão, entrou no barco, e foi para os confins de Magadã.
