John 6:9-10

Context
6:9 “Here is a boy who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what good 1  are these for so many people?”

6:10 Jesus said, “Have 2  the people sit down.” (Now there was a lot of grass in that place.) 3  So the men 4  sat down, about five thousand in number.

1 tn Grk “but what are these”; the word “good” is not in the Greek text, but is implied.

2 tn Grk “Make.”

3 sn This is a parenthetical note by the author (suggesting an eyewitness recollection).

4 tn Here “men” has been used in the translation because the following number, 5,000, probably included only adult males (see the parallel in Matt 14:21).
