John Gill's Bible Commentary Ver. 9. And they that had eaten were about four thousand , etc..] That is, men, besides women and children, as Matthew observes; (see Gill on Matthew 15:38). and he sent them away ; some that came dumb, with their speech, and deaf, with their hearing; others that were maimed, with perfect healing of their wounds, and with their limbs sound and whole; others that came lame, he dismissed leaping; and others that were blind, with their sight restored to them, and all of them full.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-10 - Our Lord Jesus encouraged the meanest to come to him for life an grace. Christ knows and considers our frames. The bounty of Christ is always ready; to show that, he repeated this miracle. His favours ar renewed, as our wants and necessities are. And those need not fea want, who have Christ to live upon by faith, and do so with thanksgiving.
