Matthew 16:7

5 When they crossed to the other side, the disciples forgot to take bread.

6 “Watch out!” Jesus told them. “Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

They discussed this among themselves and concluded, “It is because we did not bring any bread.”

8 Aware of their conversation, Jesus said, “You of little faith, why are you debating among yourselves about having no bread?

9 Do you still not understand? Do you not remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?
