{They reasoned} (dielogizonto). It was pathetic, the
almost jejune inability of the disciples to understand the
parabolic warning against "the leaven of the Pharisees and
Sadducees" (verse  6 ) after the collision of Christ just before
with both parties in Magadan. They kept it up, imperfect tense.
It is "loaves" (artous) rather than "bread."
