he said, “You who have such little faith!

among yourselves about having no bread?
16:9 Do you still not understand? Don’t you remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
16:10 Or the seven loaves for the four thousand and how many baskets you took up?
16:11 How could you not understand that I was not speaking to you about bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees!”
16:12 Then they understood that he had not told them to be on guard against the yeast in bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
