The Key Word — διέδωκεν, diadidōmigenerated
The verb διέδωκεν (diadidōmi) means to distribute or hand out. It is an aorist active indicative verb, indicating a completed action performed by Jesus. This word emphasizes the act of sharing, particularly in the context of Jesus distributing food to the multitude.
This verb appears in the New Testament in contexts where something is given out or shared, such as in Luke 11:22. The focus is on the action of delivering or distributing, which in this case highlights Jesus' role in providing for the needs of the people.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
In the Berean Standard Bible, the verse uses distributed for διέδωκεν, which is also chosen by the KJV, ASV, and YLT, maintaining the sense of sharing.
The FBV opts for handed out, which conveys a similar meaning but with a slightly different nuance. The translations agree on the essential action of Jesus distributing food to the people.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main finite verb is ἔλαβεν, He took, which leads the sentence. It is followed by a participial phrase εὐχαριστήσας, having given thanks, and then the verb διέδωκεν, He distributed, which governs the object τοῖς μαθηταῖς, to the disciples.
The structure includes several clauses and phrases that detail the actions of Jesus, connecting them logically to show the sequence of events in this miracle.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἄρτους refers to loaves or bread and is used in the Septuagint to translate the Hebrew word for bread, לֶ֫חֶם (H3899). This connection emphasizes the significance of bread as a staple food in both the Old and New Testaments.
ὀψαρίων translates to fish, a common food source, which is also reflected in the Septuagint, highlighting its importance in the diet of the people during biblical times.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
John 6:11 tells us that Jesus took some loaves and fish, thanked God for them, and then shared them with the people who were seated. This miracle shows how Jesus cared for the crowd and provided enough food for everyone.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Giving thanks signifies gratitude and recognition of God's provision, as seen in similar contexts in the New Testament, like in Matthew 15:36.
Jesus involved His disciples in the distribution to teach them about service and to engage them in His ministry.
Feeding five thousand men, not including women and children, emphasizes the miraculous nature of the event and the abundance of Jesus' provision.
This miracle foreshadows Jesus' teaching about being the bread of life, as mentioned later in John 6:35, indicating that He provides not just physical nourishment but spiritual sustenance.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways have I experienced God's provision in my life?
- How can I practice gratitude like Jesus did before meals?
- What does it mean for me to share what I have with others?
- How can I involve others in acts of service, as Jesus did with His disciples?

The earliest translations — Latin and Syriac
Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
Accepit ergo Jesus panes : et cum gratias egisset, distribuit discumbentibus : similiter et ex piscibus quantum volebant.
Jerome revised the Old Latin against the Greek from AD 382; the Latin west read this text for a thousand years.

λαμβάνω (lambanō) means both 'to take' and 'to receive,' covering a wide range of applications from literal actions like grasping or seizing to more abstract uses such as accepting ideas or concepts. It appears frequently in the New Testament, often in contexts involving physical actions (e.g., taking bread in Mt 26:26) or receiving something (e.g., receiving a message in Jn 6:21). The lexicons note that the word can also imply a sense of violence or urgency in some contexts.

The Greek word οὖν (oun) is a particle used to express consequence, sequence, or to resume a narrative. It translates to 'therefore,' 'then,' or 'accordingly,' and appears frequently in the New Testament, such as in Matthew 3:10 and Romans 5:9. It can also serve in exhortations and questions, indicating what follows logically from previous statements.
οὖν,
particle expressing consequence or simple sequence (never standing first in a sentence),
wherefore, therefore, then: Mt 3:10, Lk 3:9, Jo 8:38, Ac 1:21, Ro 5:9, al.; in exhortations, Mt 3:8, Lk 11:35, Ac 3:19, Ro 6:12, al.; in questions, Mt 13:28, Mk 15:12, Jo 8:[5], Ro 6:1, al.; continuing a…

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word ἄρτος (i.e., *artos*) means bread or a loaf, primarily made from wheat. It is used in various contexts in the New Testament, including references to the bread of the Last Supper (Mt 26:26) and general food (Mt 6:11). The entries highlight its metaphorical use, particularly in relation to Christ as the 'bread of life' (John 6:35).

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,

The Greek word Ἰησοῦς (*Iēsous*) refers primarily to Jesus, the Savior, and is derived from the Hebrew name Joshua or Jehoshua. It appears frequently in the New Testament, denoting Jesus Christ, and also refers to other figures named Jesus, such as Jesus, son of Eliezer, and Jesus Justus. The entries consistently identify it as a common name among Israelites.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The Greek word εὐχαριστέω, transliterated as eucharisteo, means to be thankful or to give thanks, particularly in a religious context. It is derived from the root related to gratitude and is commonly used in the New Testament, especially in relation to giving thanks before meals (e.g., Matthew 15:36). The entries indicate that it can also imply a sense of obligation or favor in earlier texts.

διαδίδωμι (diadidōmi) means to distribute or deliver, often in the context of handing something over or passing it along. It appears in various New Testament verses, including Luke 11:22 and Acts 4:35. The word is composed of the prefix δια- (through) and δίδωμι (to give), covering a range of meanings from distribution to delivery.
δια-δίδωμι ; fut. διαδιδώσω (Rey. xvii. 13 Rec.) ; 1 aor. διέδωκα ; 2 aor. impv. διάδος ; Pass., impf. 8 pers. sing. διεδίδοτο (Acts iv. 35), for which L T Tr WH read διεδίδετο (see ἀποδίδωμι) ; 1. to distribute, divide among several [cf. διά, Ο. 3]: ri, Lk. xi. 22; ri τινι, Lk. xviii. 22 (Lehm. δός) ; Jn. vi. 11 (Tdf. ἔδωκεν) ; pass. Acts iv. 35. Its meaning is esp. illustrated by Xen. Cyr. 1, 3, 7 τὸν Κῦρον λαβόντα τῶν κρεῶν διαδιδόναι τοῖς . . . θεραπευταῖς . «+ τοιαῦτα ἐποίει, ἕως διεδίδου πάντα ἃ ἔλαβε κρέα. 2) to give over, deliver: τί τινι, Rev. xvii. 13; but here GL T Tr WH have restored διδύασι (cf. δίδωμι, init.).
διαδίδωμι that the combination is new, ‘‘ but there can be little doubt that διαδέχεσθαι here has its usual sense and that the writer's meaning is that he had been deputed to visit the upper country on the praefect’s behalf :” they translate “as the deputy of . . Proculus in his visit to Egypt.” This is more like Deissmann’s ‘‘ proximus a vege” than the ordinary sense “‘succeed to.” This last may be presumed in P Flor IIT. 308!

The Greek word μαθητής (i.e., *mathetes*) means a learner or disciple, derived from the verb for learning, μανθάνω (*manthanō*). It refers primarily to a follower of a teacher, especially in the context of Jesus and his twelve apostles, but also applies to early Christians generally. The term appears frequently in the New Testament, notably in Matthew and Acts.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

δέ (de) is a post-positive particle in Greek, primarily used as a conjunction to connect clauses. It can express contrast (but, on the other hand) or continuation (and, also), and is often used to transition between ideas or to add emphasis. In the New Testament, it appears frequently in various contexts, such as contrasting statements or resuming interrupted discourse, with notable examples in Matthew and 2 Corinthians.

δέ (related to δή, as μέν to μήν, ef. Klotz ad Devar. ii. 2 p. 355), a particle adversative, distinctive, disjunctive, but, moreover, (W.§ 53, 7 and 10, 2); it is much more freq. in the historical parts of the N.

The Greek word μαθητής (i.e., *mathetes*) means a learner or disciple, derived from the verb for learning, μανθάνω (*manthanō*). It refers primarily to a follower of a teacher, especially in the context of Jesus and his twelve apostles, but also applies to early Christians generally. The term appears frequently in the New Testament, notably in Matthew and Acts.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

The Greek word ἀνάκειμαι (anakeimai) means to recline, particularly at a meal, and is derived from the roots for 'up' and 'to place.' It appears in various New Testament contexts, often associated with dining settings (e.g., Matthew 9:10). While the primary meaning is consistent, some sources note its earlier use as a passive form related to offerings or dedications.
** ἀνά-κειμαι
[in LXX: I Es 4:10, To 9:6 א*;]
in cl., as pass. of ἀνατίθημ, to be laid up, laid: Mk 5:40 Rec.

SYN.: ἀνακλίνω, ἀναπίπτω, the latter denoting an act rather than a state and thus in Jo 13:25 differing from ἀνάκειμαι (see. Jo 13:23) by indicating a change of position.
ἀνά-κειμαι ; [impf. 3 pers. sing. ἀνέκειτο] ; depon. mid. to be laid up, laid: Mk. v. 40 R Lbr. [ef. Eng. to lay out]. In later Grk. to lie at table (on the lectus tricliniaris (ef. B.D. s. v. Meals]; the earlier Greeks used κεῖσθαι, κατακεῖσθαι. cf. Lob. ad Phryn. p. 216 sq.; Fritzsche [or Wetst.] on Mt. ix. 10): Mt. ix. 10; xxii. 10 sq.; xxvi. 7,20; Mk.

[Cf. ἀναπίπτω, fin. κειμαι.}
ἀνάκειμαι. For the sense accumbere (Jn 611, etc.), which does not seem to be older than the Macedonian period, may be cited BGU I. 344 (ii/iii aA.b.), a list of names of of ἀνακίμενοι, and ending γίνονδαι ἄνδρες ἀναγείμενου (!) pf. The verb occurs in the more ordinary sense, as passive to ἀνατίθημι, in the great Ephesian inscr., Sy//7 6 5645 (ii/A.D.) ἀνακεῖσθαι τῇ θεῷ (‘be dedicated”), of the month Artemision (so also 1. §), The same meaning appears in 2b 8274 καθιερωμένων kal ἀνακειμένων τῆι Οὐρανίαι ᾿Αφροδίτει (i/8.C.).

The Greek word ὁμοίως (i.e., *homoiōs*) is an adverb meaning 'likewise' or 'in like manner.' It is derived from the root ὅμοιος and is used in various contexts, including several New Testament passages like Matthew 22:26 and Mark 4:16. The entries indicate that it can also imply equality or similarity in different situations.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

The Greek word ἐκ (transliterated as ek) is a preposition that means 'from' or 'out of,' governing the genitive case. It indicates origin, separation, or motion away from a place, time, or cause. In the New Testament, it is used to denote various relationships, such as source or distinction, and appears in contexts like John 6:31 and Matthew 1:3. Different lexicons highlight its versatility in both literal and metaphorical senses.

PREP PREPosition
ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.
It is of the Lord's mercies that we are not consumed.
Lamentations 3:1.
The whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:1.
Go, inquire of the Lord for me. 2 Chronicles 34:2.
That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.
Th' adorning thee with so much art,
Is but a barb'rous skill.

The Greek word ὀψάριον (*opsarion*) means a small fish or a relish, particularly fish, often served with bread. It is a diminutive form derived from ὄψον (*opson*), which refers to food eaten with bread. The New Testament uses this term in John 6:9, 11 and 21:9, 10, 13.

1. Natural History:
Fishes abound in the inland waters of Palestine as well as the Mediterranean. They are often mentioned or indirectly referred to both in the Old Testament and in the New Testament, but it is remarkable that no particular kind is distinguished by name. In Le 11:9-12 and De 14:9 f, "whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters" is declared clean, while all that "have not fins and scales" are forbidden. This excluded not only reptiles and amphibians, but also, among fishes, siluroids and eels, sharks, rays and lampreys. For our knowledge of the inland fishes of Palestine we are mainly indebted to Tristram, NHB and Fauna and Flora of Palestine; Lortet, Poissons et reptiles du Lac de Tiberiade; and Russegger…
Fish
Called dag by the Hebrews, a word denoting great fecundity (Gen. 9:2; Num. 11:22; Jonah 2:1, 10). No fish is mentioned by name either in the Old or in the New Testament. Fish abounded in the Mediterranean and in the lakes of the Jordan, so that the Hebrews were no doubt acquainted with many species. Two of the villages on the shores of the Sea of Galilee derived their names from their fisheries, Bethsaida (the “house of fish”) on the east and on the west. There is probably no other sheet of water in the world of equal dimensions that contains such a variety and profusion of fish. About thirty-seven different kinds have been found. Some of the fishes are of a European type, such as the roach, the barbel, and the blenny…
The Hebrews recognized fish as one of the great divisions of the animal kingdom, and as such gave them a place in the account of the creation, (Genesis 1:21,28) as well as in other passages where an exhaustive description of living creatures is intended. (Genesis 9:2; Exodus 20:4; 4:18; 1 Kings 4:33) The Mosaic law, (Leviticus 11:9,10) pronounced unclean such fish as were devoid of fins and scales; these were and are regarded as unwholesome in Egypt. Among the Philistines Dagon was represented by a figure half man and half fish. (1 Samuel 5:4) On this account the worship…

The Greek word ὅσος (i.e., *hosos*) is a relative adjective meaning 'how much,' 'how many,' or 'how great.' It is used to express quantity, size, distance, and time, often in comparison with another quantity. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, such as in Mark 7:36 and Romans 7:1. The lexicons do not show significant disagreement regarding its meanings or uses.
