Catena Aurea by Aquinas (604)

And it came to pass as he sat at meat with them,.... When they were sat down at table with the provisions before them: he took bread and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them; as if he was the master of the house, when he was both a guest, and a stranger, and as he used to do at common meals, when he ate with his disciples; and thus he did, when he fed five thousand at one time, and four at another, Mat 14:19 see the notes there.

Commentary on the Bible (1832)

He took bread - This was the office of the master and father of a family, and this was our Lord’s usual custom among his disciples. Those whom Christ lodges with he feeds, and feeds too with bread that himself hath blessed, and this feeding not only strengthens, but also enlightens the soul.
