Mark 8:7
And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them.
And they had a few small fishes,.... Which they also acquainted Christ with, and brought out unto him:
and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them. It looks, by this account, as if the fishes were blessed, and brake, and distributed separately, alter the blessing, breaking, and distribution of the bread; and so the Syriac version renders it, "upon whom also he blessed"; and the Persic thus, "and he also blessed the fishes"; but, according to Matthew they were both blessed, and brake, and distributed together, as it is highly reasonable to suppose they were both ate together;
