The Yeast of the Pharisees and Herod
11 The • Pharisees came out and began to argue with Him, demanding of Him a sign from heaven to test Him.
12 But sighing deeply in His spirit, He said, “Why does this generation demand a sign? • I assure you: No sign will be given to this generation!”
13 Then He left them, got on board [the boat]* The bracketed text has been added for clarity. again, and went to the other side.
14 They had forgotten to take bread and had only one loaf with them in the boat.
15 Then He commanded them: “Watch out! Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of • Herod.”
16 They were discussing among themselves that they did not have any bread.
17 Aware of this, He said to them, “Why are you discussing that you do not have any bread? Do you not yet understand or comprehend? Is your heart hardened?[3] Mk 6:52
18 Do you have eyes, and not see, and do you have ears, and not hear?[4] Jr 5:21; Ezk 12:2 And do you not remember?
19 When I broke the five loaves for the 5,000, how many baskets full of pieces of bread did you collect?”
“Twelve,” they told Him.
20 “When I broke the seven loaves for the 4,000, how many large baskets full of pieces of bread did you collect?”
“Seven,” they said.
21 And He said to them, “Don’t you understand yet?”
