Meditating
on the Scriptures Together
Morning:
Mark 8:1-21
[1] In those days,
when again a great crowd had gathered, and they had nothing to eat,
he called his disciples to him and said to them, [2] “I have
compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three
days and have nothing to eat. [3] And if I send them away hungry to
their homes, they will faint on the way. And some of them have come
from far away.” [4] And his disciples answered him, “How can one
feed these people with bread here in this desolate place?” [5] And
he asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven.”
[6] And he directed the crowd to sit down on the ground. And he took
the seven loaves, and having given thanks, he broke them and gave
them to his disciples to set before the people; and they set them
before the crowd. [7] And they had a few small fish. And having
blessed them, he said that these also should be set before them. [8]
And they ate and were satisfied. And they took up the broken pieces
left over, seven baskets full. [9] And there were about four thousand
people. And he sent them away. [10] And immediately he got into the
boat with his disciples and went to the district of Dalmanutha.
[11] The Pharisees
came and began to argue with him, seeking from him a sign from heaven
to test him. [12] And he sighed deeply in his spirit and said, “Why
does this generation seek a sign? Truly, I say to you, no sign will
be given to this generation.” [13] And he left them, got into the
boat again, and went to the other side.
[14] Now they had
forgotten to bring bread, and they had only one loaf with them in the
boat. [15] And he cautioned them, saying, “Watch out; beware of the
leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.” [16] And they
began discussing with one another the fact that they had no bread.
[17] And Jesus, aware of this, said to them, “Why are you
discussing the fact that you have no bread? Do you not yet perceive
or understand? Are your hearts hardened? [18] Having eyes do you not
see, and having ears do you not hear? And do you not remember? [19]
When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets
full of broken pieces did you take up?” They said to him, “Twelve.”
[20] “And the seven for the four thousand, how many baskets full of
broken pieces did you take up?” And they said to him, “Seven.”
[21] And he said to them, “Do you not yet understand?”
