Commentaries on Matthew 15:37
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 37They did all eat, and were filled - - they were satisfied. The husks of worldly pleasures may fill the man, but cannot satisfy the soul.

It continues the theme found in Matthew 15:27. By this miracle, Jesus showed that he is the true "bread of life" (see 16:5–12; John 6).Read the comment
