Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

15.36 Et accipiens. Ut ostendat se congaudere de salute hominum et nos ad agendas gratias informat etiam de temporalibus. Septem panes.

Septem panes, Scriptura Novi Testamenti in quo gratia Spiritus sancti et revelatur et datur. Nec sunt hordeacei, ut supra, quia hic non (ut in lege) vitale alimentum animæ figuris, quasi tenacissima palea tegitur. Hic non duos pisces (ut in lege duo ungebantur, rex et sacerdos), sed pauci, id est, sancti Novi Testamenti, qui de fluctibus sæculi sunt erepti, et sustinent turbulentum mare, et exemplo suo nos reficiunt, ne in via deficiamus. BEDA. Ibi supra fenum, ut desideria carnis comprimantur, hic super terram ubi et ipse mundus, etc., usque ad utraque refectio in monte celebrata est, quia utriusque Testamenti Scriptura altitudinem cœlestium præceptorum mandat et præmiorum: utraque altitudinem Christi prædicat. Et quod superfuit. Altiora mysteria quæ non capit communis turba, apostoli sustollunt et implent septem sportas, id est, perfectorum corda septiformi Spiritus gratia ad intelligendum illustrata. Septem sportas.

15:32-39 The previous feeding miracle (see 14:13-21) was for Jews, whereas this one extended to Gentiles; it thus develops the theme of 15:27. Through this miracle Jesus demonstrated that he is the true bread of life (see 16:5-12; John 6).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἄρτους
loaves
See how you translated loaves in 14:17. Alternate translation: [large chunks of bread]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἔκλασεν καὶ ἐδίδου
˱he˲_broke_‹them› and /was/_giving_‹them›
Here Matthew means that Jesus broke the loaves of bread in pieces so that they could be served to the crowds. This was a normal practice in his culture. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make that idea more explicit. Alternate translation: [he divided the loaves into servings and was giving them] or [he broke the loaves into smaller pieces and was giving the pieces]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis
οἱ & μαθηταὶ τοῖς ὄχλοις
the & disciples ˱to˲_the crowds
Matthew is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You could supply these words from earlier in the sentence if it would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [the disciples gave them to the crowds]
