Markos 8:5 In-Context

3 And if I send them away hungry to their batim (houses), they will give out on the way; and some of them have come from far away.

4 And his talmidim answered him, From where will anyone be able to find enough lechem to feed these ones here in the midbar? [BAMIDBAR 11:21]

5 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was asking them, How many loaves do you have? And they said, Shevah.

6 And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach directed the multitude to recline at tish, as it were, on the ground. And having taken the sheva kikrot (loaves), he made a bracha, saying the ha-Motzi, and offered the betziat halechem (the breaking of the bread) and was giving [them] to his talmidim to serve to them, and they served the multitude.

7 And they also had a few small dagim. And after he had made the bracha over them, he directed these to be served as well.
