Mark 8:19

how many baskets Observe how our Lord reproduces in this allusion to the putting forth of His miraculous power not only the precise number but the precise kind of baskets taken up on each occasion. See above, on Mark 6:43. Wyclif brings out this in his translation: "Whanne I brak fyue looues among fyve pousand, and hou many coffynsful of brokene mete ye token up?… whanne also seuene looues among foure thousand, how many leepisof brokene mete se token up?"
