Mark 8:6

Καὶ παρήγγειλε τῷ ὄχλῳ ἀναπεσεῖν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς· καὶ λαβὼν τοὺς ἑπτὰ ἄρτους, εὐχαριστήσας ἔκλασε καὶ ἐδίδου τοῖς μαθηταῖς αὐτοῦ, ἵνα παραθῶσι· καὶ παρέθηκαν τῷ ὄχλῳ.

RBT Translation:

εὐχαριστέω eucharisteó - bestow grace

And he is transmitting to the Multitude to fall back upon the Earthly One, and he who has taken hold of the Seven Bread Loaves, he who gave eucharist/thanks, he deflected, and he kept giving to the Learners of Self so that they might set close beside, and they set close beside the Multitude.

Seven bread loaves, whole, complete. Turn your attention away from (deflect from) the Teaching of the Separatists, be fattened by the Loaves of yourself.

The Greek verb κλάω originally denotes “to break, fracture, or snap” (e.g., wood, spears, vine shoots: Od. 6.128; Il. 11.584; Thphr. CP 1.15.1). In technical and metaphorical contexts, however, the meaning shifts from literal breakage to deviation or bending, giving rise to the senses “deflect,” “inflect,” or “follow a non-straight course”. It was not a word used in the sense of "tearing off a piece" of something. Thus the odd vernacular of "break a bread" became a religious idiom, since it is quite difficult to snap bread, unless it is completely stale and hard. In all the uses of κλάω "break" in the NT, bread is never the direct object, except once in Mark 8:19.

Most modern translations can't help but add the word "it" or "them" under the assumption that the verb must be referring to the bread. This is planting in accusative words that are not in the text. "He broke them, and gave them" is a false translation.

(κλάω – Deflect)

Julia Smith Literal 1876 Translation:
And he enjoined to the crowd to recline upon the earth: and having taken the seven loaves, having returned thanks, he brake, and he gave to his disciples that they might set before; and they set before the crowd.

LITV Translation:
And He ordered the crowd to recline on the ground. And taking the seven loaves, giving thanks, He broke and gave to His disciples, that they might serve. And they served the crowd.
