Matthew 15: 29-37 - 'The crowds praised the God of Israel.'
Catechism of the Catholic Church Paragraphs:
- 1335 (In 'The Signs of Bread & Wine') - The miracles of the multiplication of the loaves, when the Lord says the blessing, breaks and distributes the loaves through his disciples to feed the multitude, prefigure the superabundance of this unique bread of his Eucharist (abbreviated).
- 1329 (In 'What is this Sacrament Called'?) - The Breaking of Bread, because Jesus used this rite, part of a Jewish meal, when as master of the table he blessed and distributed the bread, above all at the Last Supper (abbreviated).

| 0:00.0 | Hi everyone. Welcome back to logical Bible study. Let's get straight into doing our exegesis today. So we're looking at the gospel reading from today's Mass. Let's take a look at it. First by reading the passage, |
| 0:21.6 | and then we'll go through it verse by verse. So today's reading is Matthew chapter 15, |
| 0:27.6 | verses 29 to 37, and I've also included verses 38 to 39 in this as well, because they finish off |

| 1:31.9 | Seven, they said, and a few small fish. |
