This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Give ye them to eat (dote autois hūmeis phagein). The emphasis is on hūmeis in contrast (note position) with their “send away” (apoluson). It is the urgent aorist of instant action (dote). It was an astounding command. The disciples were to learn that “no situation appears to Him desperate, no crisis unmanageable” (Bruce).
