  **Show the text**

  11 The Pharisees came out and began to question him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, and testing him.

  12 He sighed deeply in his spirit, and said, “Why does this generation seek a sign? Most certainly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”

  13 He left them, and again entering into the boat, departed to the other side.

  14 They forgot to take bread; and they didn’t have more than one loaf in the boat with them.

  15 He warned them, saying, “Take heed: beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.”

  16 They reasoned with one another, saying, “It’s because we have no bread.”

  17 Jesus, perceiving it, said to them, “Why do you reason that it’s because you have no bread? Don’t you perceive yet, neither understand? Is your heart still hardened?

  18 Having eyes, don’t you see? Having ears, don’t you hear? Don’t you remember?

  19 When I broke the five loaves among the five thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Twelve.”

  20 “When the seven loaves fed the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” They told him, “Seven.”

  21 He asked them, “Don’t you understand yet?”
