Matthew 15:37

35 So He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground.

36 And ^aHe took the seven loaves and the fish and ^bgave thanks, broke them and gave them to His disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitude.

37 So they all ate and were filled, and they took up seven large baskets full of the fragments that were left.

38 Now those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.

39 ^aAnd He sent away the multitude, got into the boat, and came to the region of¹ Magdala.

Matthew 15:37

They did all eat, and were filled - - they were satisfied. The husks of worldly pleasures may fill the man, but cannot satisfy the soul. A man may eat, and not be satisfied: it is the interest therefore of every follower of Christ to follow him till he be fed, and to feed on him till he be satisfied.
