Mark 8:8 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 8:8

So they did eat, and were filled
Christ and his disciples, and the whole multitude: they not only had some, but they had all enough, a full meal. It was surprising that it could be divided so, is that every one should have a bit; but that they should all be satisfied to the full, is amazing:

and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets;
as many as there were loaves; (See Gill on Matthew 15:37).

Mark 8:8 In-Context

6 Then He commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. Taking the seven loaves, He gave thanks, broke the [loaves], and kept on giving [them] to His disciples to set before [the people]. So they served the [loaves] to the crowd.

7 They also had a few small fish, and when He had blessed them, He said these were to be served as well.

8 They ate and were filled. Then they collected seven large baskets of leftover pieces.

9 About 4,000 [men] were there. He dismissed them

10 and immediately got into the boat with His disciples and went to the district of Dalmanutha.
