Context: Mat 16:05 When the disciples reached the other side, they had forgotten to bring any bread.
Mat 16:6 Jesus said to them, “Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Mat 16:7 And they discussed it among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.”
Mat 16:8 But Jesus, aware of this, said, “O men of little faith, why do you discuss among yourselves the fact that you have no bread?
Mat 16:9 Do you not yet perceive? Do you not remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets you gathered?
Mat 16:10 Or the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets you gathered?
Mat 16:11 How is it that you fail to perceive that I did not speak about bread? Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”
Mat 16:12 Then they understood that he did not tell them to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
