Mark 6:35
Douay-Rheims
And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came to him, saying: This is a desert place, and the hour is now past:
John Chrysostom
(Vict. Ant. e Cat. in Marc. v. Chrys. Hom in Matt. 49) Now it was with fitness that He looked up to heaven, for the Jews, when receiving manna in the desert, presumed to say of God, Can he give bread? (Ps. 78:20) To prevent this therefore, before He performed the miracle, He referred to His Father what He was about to do.
