When they crossed to the other side This phrase refers to Jesus and His disciples traveling across the Sea of Galilee. The Sea of Galilee, a freshwater lake in Israel, was a central location for much of Jesus' ministry. Crossing to the other side often involved moving from predominantly Jewish regions to areas with more Gentile populations, highlighting the expanding reach of Jesus' ministry. This movement can symbolize the transition from the old covenant to the new, where the message of the Gospel would reach beyond the Jewish people to all nations. the disciples forgot to take bread Persons / Places / Events 1.

Teaching Points Trust in God's ProvisionThe disciples' forgetfulness about bread serves as a reminder to trust in God's provision rather than being anxious about material needs. Spiritual Awareness This passage sets the stage for Jesus' teaching on the "leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees," urging believers to be aware of spiritual influences and teachings. Learning from Past Experiences The disciples had previously witnessed Jesus' miraculous provision of food. This incident encourages believers to remember and learn from past experiences of God's faithfulness. Focus on Spiritual Nourishment While physical needs are important, Jesus often redirects focus to spiritual nourishment and growth, which is of eternal significance.(5) They had forgotten.--Better, they forgot. St. Mark, with his usual precision in detail, states that they had but "one loaf" with them. Either the suddenness of their Lord's departure had deprived them of their customary forethought, or, it may be, they were beginning to depend wrongly on the wonder-working power, as though it would be used, not as before, to supply the wants of the famished multitude, but as rendering that forethought needless for themselves.Verses 5-12. - Warning against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees. (Mark 8:14-21.) Verse 5. - They had forgotten (ἐπελάθοντο, not pluperfect); came to the other side, and forgot; obliti sunt (Vulgate); i.e. they perceived that they had forgotten to take sufficient bread for the journey before them. The district which they were about to traverse was but sparsely inhabited, and offered no hope of supplying this want. It is doubted whether the ensuing conversation took place during the voyage or after they had landed. The language of St. Mark inclines one to believe that the deficiency was discovered during the transit, and the remarks now narrated were made then. As it would take some hours to cross, there was ample time to feel and expatiate upon the need; and if Christ had told them of his future movements, they would naturally feel regret for their carelessness and want of forethought. Or it might be that Christ's observation concerning the leaven was made in the beat, and his reproof of their thoughts was given on landing. Parallel Commentaries ...
