V.30-32 The disciples come back and recite to Jesus all that they had done and taught. He gently leads them to a quiet spot to rest. The flesh had become excited, and this is dangerous for a believer. Particularly when there has been success. We need to get alone with Jesus.
V.33-44 The disciples are glad of the rest, but displeased at the crowds coming to spoil it. Jesus has loving sympathy, teaches and feeds them (Read Psa. 145:16). This shall be fulfilled completely in the millennium, but Jesus was a Man here on earth Who could do this now.
V.37 The Lord does not say, “I will give them food,” but “Give ye them to eat.” The Lord wants us to use His power in bringing blessing to others.
V.45-46 The story of Jesus present and future. Now we are in the boat on our way to the other side. He is separated from us because this world has rejected Him. But verse 55 goes on to the millennium, when He shall be received with joy, and blessings will richly flow out from Him.
