Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they did so, and made them all sit down. The disciples did not dispute the case any longer with Christ, but obeyed his orders, and ranged the multitude in companies, a hundred in one, and fifty in another; and ordered them to sit down in their distinct companies and ranks upon the green grass. The Arabic and Ethiopic versions read, "and they all sat down"; and so it is read in some copies of the Vulgate Latin version.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See the Matthew 14:13-21 notes, and Mark 6:30-44 notes.

Day began to wear away - To decline, or as it drew near toward evening.
