Context of Mark 8:14

12Jesus cried with a low, sad sound. He said, ‘People who are alive today want God to show them something powerful. But I tell you this: God will not do the powerful thing for them that they want.’ 13Then Jesus left those Pharisees. He got back into the boat to go to the other side of the lake. Jesus' disciples had forgotten to take bread with them. They only had one loaf in the boat. 15Jesus said to them, ‘Be careful. Do not accept the yeast of the Pharisees or the yeast of Herod.’ 16The disciples began to say to each other, ‘Jesus is saying that because we do not have any bread.’

Commentaries on Mark 8:14

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 14Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread - See all this, to Mark 8:21, explained at large on Matthew 16:4-12; (note). In the above chapter, an account is given of the Pharisees, Sadducees, and Herodians.Read the comment
• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 11-21Verses 11-21 See this passage explained in Matthew 16:1-12. Mark 8:12 Sighed deeply in his spirit - His heart was deeply affected at their wickedness and hypocrisy. The word “spirit” here is taken as the seat of the emotions, passions, affections. He drew groans deeply from his breast. No sign be given - That is, no such sign as they asked, to wit, a sign “from heaven.” He said a sign should be given, the same as was furnished by Jonas, Matthew 16:4. But…Read the comment
• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 11-21Verses 11-21 Obstinate unbelief will have something to say, though ever so unreasonable. Christ refused to answer their demand. If they will not be convinced, they shall not. Alas! what cause we have to lament for those around us, who destroy themselves and others by their perverse and obstinate unbelief, and enmity to the gospel! When we forget the works of God, and distrust him, we should chide ourselves severely, as Christ here reproves his disciples…Read the comment
• Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 14The mention of having only one loaf of bread reminds Mark's audience of earlier times when the disciples did not have enough food. On those occasions, Jesus miraculously provided enough bread to feed thousands of people.Read the comment
• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 1414. Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf--This is another example of that graphic circumstantiality which gives such a charm to this briefest of the four Gospels. The circumstance of the "one loaf" only remaining, as Webster and Wilkinson remark, was more suggestive of their Master's recent miracles than the entire absence of provisions.Read the comment
