Contextual Overview

1 After these thynges, Iesus went his waye ouer the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. 2 And a great multitude folowed hym, because they sawe his miracles whiche he dyd on them that were diseased. 3 And Iesus went vp into a mountayne, & there he sate with his disciples. 4 And the Passouer, a feast of ye Iewes, was nye. 5 When Iesus then lyft vp his eyes, and sawe a great company come vnto him, he saith vnto Philip: Whence shal we bye bread, that these may eate? 6 (This he sayde to proue hym: for he hym selfe knewe what he woulde do.) 7 Philip aunswered hym: Two hundred penie worth of bread are not sufficient for them, that euery man may take a litle. 8 One of his disciples, Andrewe, Simo Peters brother, sayth vnto hym: 9 There is a litle ladde here, whiche hath fyue barly loaues and two fisshes, but what are they among so many? 10 And Iesus sayde: Make the people syt downe. There was much grasse in the place. So the men sate downe, in number about fyue thousande.

Now: No wonder, since it was the spring, being near the passover; and, from the plenty of grass, it would be a place much more suitable to the purpose. This circumstance, says Dr. Paley, is plainly the remark of an eye-witness.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Jesus said, make the men sit down,.... The Syriac version reads, "all the men"; and the Persic version, "all the people"; men, women, and children: Christ, without reproving his disciples for their unbelief, ordered them directly to place the people upon the ground, and seat them in rows by hundreds and by fifties, in a rank and company, as persons about to take a meal:

now there was much grass in the place; at the bottom of the mountain; and it was green, as one of the evangelists observes, it being the spring of the year, and was very commodious to sit down upon:

so the men sat down, in number about five thousand; besides women and children, Matthew 14:21, so that there was but one loaf for more than a thousand persons.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse John 6:10. There was much grass in the place. — Perhaps newly mown grass, or hay, is meant, (so the Vulgate faenum,) and this circumstance marks out more particularly that the passover was at hand. In Palestine the grass is ready for mowing in March; and this miracle seems to have been wrought only a few days before the commencement of that festival: see John 6:4.
