他就治好了他们。

Great crowds came to him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute and many others, and laid them at his feet; and he healed them.

31 甚至众人都希奇。因为看见哑吧说话，残疾的痊愈，瘸子行走，瞎子看见，他们就归荣耀给以色列的神。

The people were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled made well, the lame walking and the blind seeing. And they praised the God of Israel.

32 耶稣叫门徒来说，我怜悯这众人，因为他们同我在这里已经三天，也没有吃的了。我不愿意叫他们饿着回去，恐怕在路上困乏。

Jesus called his disciples to him and said, "I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way."

33 门徒说，我们在这野地，哪里有这么多的饼，叫这许多人吃饱呢？

His disciples answered, "Where could we get enough bread in this remote place to feed such a crowd?"

34 耶稣说，你们有多少饼？他们说，有七个，还有几条小鱼。

"How many loaves do you have?" Jesus asked. "Seven," they replied, "and a few small fish."

35 他就吩咐众人坐在地上。

He told the crowd to sit down on the ground.

36 拿着这七个饼和几条鱼，祝谢了，掰开，递给门徒。门徒又递给众人。

Then he took the seven loaves and the fish, and when he had given thanks, he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and they in turn to the people.

37 众人都吃并且吃饱了。收拾剩下的零碎，装满了七个筐子。

They all ate and were satisfied. Afterward the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.

38 吃的人，除了妇女孩子，共有四千。

The number of those who ate was four thousand, besides women and children.

39 耶稣叫众人散去，就上船，来到马加丹的境界。

After Jesus had sent the crowd away, he got into the boat and went to the vicinity of Magadan.

文字解释

马加丹（39节）：位于加利利海沿岸地区，可能是源自于意指“塔”、“瞭望台”的希伯来文“Migdal”，在马可福音中则被译为“大玛努他”（可8:10)。

今日经文摘要

耶稣在加利利海边的山上，治好许多人带来的病人。祂怜悯跟随祂三天的众人，想给他们吃的，门徒拿来七个饼和几条鱼。耶稣祝谢了，擘开，递给门徒和众人，众人都吃饱了，收拾剩下的零碎后，装满七个筐子。

经文解释

医治外邦人七饼几条鱼的神迹 15 ： 29 ～ 39

耶稣是犹太人和外邦人的救主。耶稣虽然主要在加利利地区传道，但祂在外邦人的地方也施行奇事。有丰盛怜悯的耶稣，治好了许多来找祂的外邦病人（30～31节），耶稣所行的，与先知以赛亚的预言如出一辙─ 在末日神的救赎会临到外邦人（赛29：18～19；35：5～6；61：1）。此外，耶稣在外邦之地，用七个饼和几条鱼给四千名左右的男人吃饱，剩下的零碎还装满了七个筐子。这里的“七”是完全数，可视为暗喻耶稣是包含外邦人在内，拯救全世界的救主。耶稣不仅对犹太人行了五饼二鱼的神迹（14：15～21），对外邦人也行了类似的神迹，证明祂是全人类的救主。耶稣乐意喂饱人的作为，是基于祂满有怜悯的慈心；耶稣不仅供应人灵性上的需求，也满足身体上的需要。
