19 And G2532 he commanded G2753 the multitude G3793 to sit down G347 on G1909 the grass, G5528 and G2532 took G2983 the five G4002 loaves, G740 and G2532 the two G1417 fishes, G2486 and looking up G308 to G1519 heaven, G3772 he blessed, G2127 and G2532 brake, G2806 and gave G1325 the loaves G740 to his disciples, G3101 and G1161 the disciples G3101 to the multitude. G3793
And G2532 it came to pass, G1096 as G1722 he G846 sat at meat G2625 with G3326 them, G846 he took G2983 bread, G740 and blessed G2127 it, and G2532 brake, G2806 and gave G1929 to them. G846
As soon as ye be come H935 into the city, H5892 ye shall straightway H3651 find H4672 him, before he go up H5927 to the high place H1116 to eat: H398 for the people H5971 will not eat H398 until he come, H935 because he doth bless H1288 the sacrifice; H2077 and afterwards H310 H3651 they eat H398 that be bidden. H7121 Now therefore get you up; H5927 for about this time H3117 ye shall find H4672 him.
For G3754 every G3956 creature G2938 of God G2316 is good, G2570 and G2532 nothing G3762 to be refused, G579 if it be received G2983 with G3326 thanksgiving: G2169 For G1063 it is sanctified G37 by G1223 the word G3056 of God G2316 and G2532 prayer. G1783
He that regardeth G5426 the day, G2250 regardeth G5426 it unto the Lord; G2962 and G2532 he that regardeth G5426 not G3361 the day, G2250 to the Lord G2962 he doth G5426 not G3756 regard G5426 it. He that eateth, G2068 eateth G2068 to the Lord, G2962 for G1063 he giveth God G2316 thanks; G2168 and G2532 he that eateth G2068 not, G3361 to the Lord G2962 he eateth G2068 not, G3756 and G2532 giveth God G2316 thanks. G2168
And G2532 when he had taken G2983 the five G4002 loaves G740 and G2532 the two G1417 fishes, G2486 he looked up G308 to G1519 heaven, G3772 and blessed, G2127 and G2532 brake G2622 the loaves, G740 and G2532 gave G1325 them to his G846 disciples G3101 to G2443 set before G3908 them; G846 and G2532 the two G1417 fishes G2486 divided he G3307 among them all. G3956
And G1161 as they G846 were eating, G2068 Jesus G2424 took G2983 bread, G740 and G2532 blessed G2127 it, and brake G2806 it, and G2532 gave G1325 it to the disciples, G3101 and G2532 said, G2036 Take, G2983 eat; G5315 this G5124 is G2076 my G3450 body. G4983 And G2532 he took G2983 the cup, G4221 and G2532 gave thanks, G2168 and gave G1325 it to them, G846 saying, G3004 Drink ye G4095 all G3956 of G1537 it; G846
And G2532 whatsoever G3748 G3956 ye do G302 G4160 in G1722 word G3056 or G2228 G1722 deed, G2041 do all G3956 in G1722 the name G3686 of the Lord G2962 Jesus, G2424 giving thanks G2168 to God G2316 and G2532 the Father G3962 by G1223 him. G846
And G2532 when he had given thanks, G2168 he brake G2806 it, and G2532 said, G2036 Take, G2983 eat: G5315 this G5124 is G2076 my G3450 body, G4983 which G3588 is broken G2806 for G5228 you: G5216 this G5124 do G4160 in G1519 remembrance G364 of me. G1699
And G2532 he commanded G2753 the multitude G3793 to sit down G377 on G1909 the ground. G1093 And G2532 he took G2983 the seven G2033 loaves G740 and G2532 the fishes, G2486 and gave thanks, G2168 and brake G2806 them, and G2532 gave G1325 to his G846 disciples, G3101 and G1161 the disciples G3101 to the multitude. G3793
The cup G4221 of blessing G2129 which G3739 we bless, G2127 is it G2076 not G3780 the communion G2842 of the blood G129 of Christ? G5547 The bread G740 which G3739 we break, G2806 is it G2076 not G3780 the communion G2842 of the body G4983 of Christ? G5547
(Howbeit G235 G1161 there came G2064 other G243 boats G4142 from G1537 Tiberias G5085 nigh G1451 unto the place G5117 where G3699 they did eat G5315 bread, G740 after that the Lord G2962 had given thanks:) G2168
And G1161 Jesus G2424 said, G2036 Make G4160 the men G444 sit down. G377 Now G1161 there was G2258 much G4183 grass G5528 in G1722 the place. G5117 So G3767 the men G435 sat down, G377 in number G706 about G5616 five thousand. G4000 And G1161 Jesus G2424 took G2983 the loaves; G740 and G2532 when he had given thanks, G2168 he distributed G1239 to the disciples, G3101 and G1161 the disciples G3101 to them that were set down; G345 and G2532 likewise G3668 of G1537 the fishes G3795 as much as G3745 they would. G2309
And G2532 he took G2983 bread, G740 and gave thanks, G2168 and brake G2806 it, and G2532 gave G1325 unto them, G846 saying, G3004 This G5124 is G2076 my G3450 body G4983 which G3588 is given G1325 for G5228 you: G5216 this G5124 do G4160 in remembrance G364 of G1519 me. G1699
And G2532 as they G846 did eat, G2068 Jesus G2424 took G2983 bread, G740 and blessed, G2127 and brake G2806 it, and G2532 gave G1325 to them, G846 and G2532 said, G2036 Take, G2983 eat: G5315 this G5124 is G2076 my G3450 body. G4983 And G2532 he took G2983 the cup, G4221 and when he had given thanks, G2168 he gave G1325 it to them: G846 and G2532 they all G3956 drank G4095 of G1537 it. G846
And G2532 he commanded G3853 the people G3793 to sit down G377 on G1909 the ground: G1093 and G2532 he took G2983 the seven G2033 loaves, G740 and gave thanks, G2168 and brake, G2806 and G2532 gave G1325 to his G846 disciples G3101 to G2443 set before G3908 them; and G2532 they did set them before G3908 the people. G3793 And G2532 they had G2192 a few G3641 small fishes: G2485 and G2532 he blessed, G2127 and commanded G2036 to set G3908 them G846 also G2532 before G3908 them.

Commentary on Matthew 14 Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
CHAPTER 14
Mt 14:1-12. Herod Thinks Jesus a Resurrection of the Murdered Baptist—Account of His Imprisonment and Death. ( = Mr 6:14-29; Lu 9:7-9).
The time of this alarm of Herod Antipas appears to have been during the mission of the Twelve, and shortly after the Baptist—who had been in prison for probably more than a year—had been cruelly put to death.
Herod's Theory of the Works of Christ (Mt 14:1, 2).
1. At that time Herod the tetrarch—Herod Antipas, one of the three sons of Herod the Great, and own brother of Archelaus (Mt 2:22), who ruled as ethnarch over Galilee and Perea.
heard of the fame of Jesus—"for His name was spread abroad" (Mr 6:14).
2. And said unto his servants—his counsellors or court-ministers.
This is John the Baptist: he is risen from the dead, &c.—The murdered prophet haunted his guilty breast like a specter and seemed to him alive again and clothed with unearthly powers in the person of Jesus.
Account of the Baptist's Imprisonment and Death (Mt 14:3-12). For the exposition of this portion, see on Mr 6:17-29.
Mt 14:12-21. Hearing of the Baptist's Death, Jesus Crosses the Lake with Twelve, and Miraculously Feeds Five Thousand. ( = Mr 6:30-44; Lu 9:10-17; Joh 6:1-14).
For the exposition of this section—one of the very few where all the four Evangelists run parallel—see on Mr 6:30-44.
Mt 14:22-26. Jesus Crosses to the Western Side of the Lake Walking on the Sea—Incidents on Landing. ( = Mr 6:45; Joh 6:15-24).
For the exposition, see on Joh 6:15-24.
28. And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it is thou, bid me come to thee on the water—(Also see on Mr 6:50.)
29. And he said, Come. And when Peter had come down out of the boat. he walked on the water, to go to Jesus—(Also see on Mr 6:50.)
30. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me—(Also see on Mr 6:50.)
31. And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said to him, O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt?—(Also see on Mr 6:50.)
32. And when they had come into the boat, the wind ceased—(Also see on Mr 6:50.)
