Mark 8:14 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 8:14

Now the disciples had, forgotten to take bread
At Dalmanutha, or Magdala, or whatever place in those parts they were at, before they took shipping, as was their usual method.

Neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf;
for thirteen passengers of them. The Persic version reads the whole thus: "and they forgot to take bread with them, not indeed one loaf, and there was no bread with them in the ship"; (See Gill on Matthew 16:5).
