Ambrose of Milan — as excerpted in the Catena Aurea on Luke 9:10-17

Patristic A.D. 397
Ambrose of Milan · A.D. 339–397
“But here the bread which Jesus brake is mystically indeed the word of God, and discourse concorning Christ, which when it is divided is increased. For from these few words, He ministered abundant nourishment to the people. He gave us words like loaves, which while they are tasted by our mouth are doubled.”
