1. fragment, broken piece — A fragment or broken piece, specifically of bread or food left over after a meal. Greek κλάσμα (from κλάω 'to break') is a neuter noun used exclusively in the NT for the leftover fragments collected after the miraculous feeding of the multitudes. All 9 occurrences appear in the feeding narratives: the feeding of the five thousand (Matt 14:20; Mark 6:43; Luke 9:17; John 6:12-13) and the feeding of the four thousand (Matt 15:37; Mark 8:8, 8:19-20). Spanish 'pedazos' (pieces); Hindi टुकड़ों / तुकदोन (pieces / fragments oblique); Arabic كِسَرٍ / كِسَرًا / الكِسَرِ (fragments in various cases); Korean 조각들 / 조각들의 (fragments / of fragments); Swahili vipande (pieces, Bantu plural noun class). S70755 (genitive/accusative plural, 7x) and S70757 (genitive plural, 2x) are case inflections of the identical meaning. 9×
