“And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.”
Mark 6:44 (KJV)
Commentary on Mark 6:44
And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men. Five thousand 'men' (ἄνδρες, andres, adult males) excludes women and children, suggesting 15,000-20,000 total. This precision establishes credibility through organized counting (groups of 50 and 100). The magnitude surpassed all prior miracles, confirming Jesus' divine identity. Specific numbers served apologetic purposes—documented events witnessed by thousands.
