Matthew 15:37

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full.

"Where can we," asked the disciples, "get bread enough in this remote place to satisfy so vast a multitude?"

So all ate, and were fully satisfied. The broken portions that remained over they gathered up, filling twelve baskets.

The hungry He has satisfied with choice gifts, But the rich He has sent empty-handed away.

Do you not yet understand? nor even remember the 5,000 and the five loaves, and how many basketfuls you carried away,

So the people ate an abundant meal; and what remained over they picked up and carried away--seven hampers of broken pieces.

All ate and were fully satisfied.

"And when the seven for the 4,000, how many hampers full of portions did you take away?" "Seven," they answered.
