Mark 8:16 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 8:16

And they reasoned among themselves
Upon Christ's giving this caution, and recollecting with themselves, that they had forgot to buy any provisions, and take with them:

saying, it is because we have no bread;
that he says these words; tacitly chiding and reproving us, for our want of thought and care; (See Gill on Matthew 16:7).

14 They forgot to take bread; and they didn't have more than one loaf in the boat with them.

15 He charged them, saying, "Take heed: beware of the yeast of the Perushim and the yeast of Herod."

16 They reasoned with one another, saying, "It's because we have no bread."

17 Yeshua, perceiving it, said to them, "Why do you reason that it's because you have no bread? Don't you perceive yet, neither understand? Is your heart still hardened?

18 Having eyes, don't you see? Having ears, don't you hear? Don't you remember?
