Mateo 14:18

18 El les dijo: Traédmelos acá

Mateo 14:18 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 14:18

He said, bring them hither to me.
] The loaves and the fishes, signifying that they were sufficient; or that he would make them so: this he said, to try their faith in him, their obedience to him, and their liberality to others: and indeed, the best way to have an increase of temporal supplies, is to bring what we have, and put it into Christ's hands; whereby not only good is done to others, but that with an overplus is returned to the giver.

17 Y ellos dijeron: No tenemos aquí sino cinco panes y dos peces

18 El les dijo: Traédmelos acá

19 Y mandando a la multitud recostarse sobre la hierba, tomando los cinco panes y los dos peces, alzando los ojos al cielo, bendijo, y partiendo los panes los dio a los discípulos, y los discípulos a la multitud

20 Y comieron todos, y se saciaron; y alzaron lo que sobró de los pedazos, doce cestas llenas
