Exegesis
The genitive arton {ἄρτων | ár-tōn} serves as the material or partitive object, and the adverbs hode {ὧδε | hō-de} and the prepositional phrase ep’ eremias {ἐπʼ ἐρημίας | ep' e-rē-mí-as} place the situation in a desolate location, intensifying the sense of scarcity that makes the disciples’ question urgent.
