Matthew 15:31 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 15:31

Jesus Heals Great Multitudes

29 ^aJesus departed from there, ^bskirted the Sea of Galilee, and went up on the mountain and sat down there.

30 ^aThen great multitudes came to Him, having with them the lame, blind, mute,¹ maimed, and many others; and they laid them down at Jesus’ ^bfeet, and He healed them.

31 So the multitude marveled when they saw the mute speaking, the¹ maimed made whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they ^aglorified the God of Israel.

Feeding the Four Thousand

32 ^aNow Jesus called His disciples to Himself and said, “I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now continued with Me three days and have nothing to eat. And I do not want to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way.”

33 ^aThen His disciples said to Him, “Where could we get enough bread in the wilderness to fill such a great multitude?”

34 Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven, and a few little fish.”
