17. Jesus knew what they were saying, so he asked them, “Why are you discussing about not having any bread? Don't you know or understand yet? Are your minds so dull?
18. You have eyes — can't you see? You have ears — can't you hear? Don't you remember
19. when I broke the five loaves for the 5,000 people? How many baskets full of leftover pieces did you take up?”“Twelve,” they answered.
20. “And when I broke the seven loaves for the 4,000 people,” asked Jesus, “how many baskets full of leftover pieces did you take up?”“Seven,” they answered.
21. “And you still don't understand?” he asked them.
22. They came to Bethsaida, where some people brought a blind man to Jesus and begged him to touch him.
23. Jesus took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. After spitting on the man's eyes, Jesus placed his hands on him and asked him, “Can you see anything?”
24. The man looked up and said, “Yes, I can see people, but they look like trees walking about.”
25. Jesus again placed his hands on the man's eyes. This time the man looked intently, his eyesight returned, and he saw everything clearly.
