Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they that had eaten were about four thousand,.... That is, men, besides women and children, as Matthew observes;
:-.
and he sent them away; some that came dumb, with their speech, and deaf, with their hearing; others that were maimed, with perfect healing of their wounds, and with their limbs sound and whole; others that came lame, he dismissed leaping; and others that were blind, with their sight restored to them, and all of them full.
