And they that had eaten were about four thousand, etc..] That is, men, besides women and children, as Matthew observes; (see Gill on “<401538>Matthew 15:38”). 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.
