Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

For divers of them came from far - And they could not possibly reach their respective homes without perishing, unless they got food.


Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible

And if I send them away fasting to their own houses,.... Greek, "to their own house", or home; but all the Oriental versions render it as we do, in the plural, "their own houses", or habitations; and it seems from hence that they were now tasting, and at least had had no food all that day, whatever they might have the day before, which it not certain.

They will faint by the way; for want of food their strength will be exhausted, their animal spirits will fail, their nerves will be loosened, they will not be able to perform their journey, or get to the end of it:

for divers of them came from far; perhaps some had followed him from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, from whence he came last; and others from Decapolis, through the midst of the borders of which he passed hither; and others from different parts, who had heard of his coming; See Gill on Matthew 15:32.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

3. And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint by the way-In their eagerness they seem not to have thought of the need of provisions for such a length of time; but the Lord thought of it. In Matthew (Mt 15:32) it is, "I will not send them away fasting"-or rather, "To send them away fasting I am unwilling."


Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

8:1-10 Our Lord Jesus encouraged the meanest to come to him for life and grace. Christ knows and considers our frames. The bounty of Christ is always ready; to show that, he repeated this miracle. His favours are renewed, as our wants and necessities are. And those need not fear want, who have Christ to live upon by faith, and do so with thanksgiving.


Mark 8:2 "I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat.
Mark 8:4 His disciples answered, "But where in this remote place can anyone get enough bread to feed them?"
