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 But knowing [this], Jesus said, "Why are you discussing among yourselves that you did not take bread, [you] of little faith?

9 Do you not yet understand or do you not remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up?

10 Or the seven loaves for the four thousand and how many baskets you took up?

11 How do you not understand that I did not speak to you about bread? But beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees!"

12 Then they understood that he did not say to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
