TSNTyndale Study Notes:

9:10-17 The feeding of the 5,000 recalls God’s miraculous feeding of Israel with manna in the wilderness (Exod 16; see also 2 Kgs 4:42-44). It points forward to God’s final salvation as a great feast for all nations (Isa 25:6-8; 65:13-14; Luke 14:15-24).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ὡσεὶ ἄνδρες πεντακισχίλιοι

about men five_thousand

Luke assumes that readers will know that this number does not include the women and children who were likely also present. (This is not a case where a masculine term includes women.) If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state that explicitly. Alternate translation: “about 5,000 men, not counting the women and children”

κατακλίνατε αὐτοὺς

recline them

Alternate translation: “Tell them to sit down to eat”
