laravel print the validation error message

Question

I read the official page about validation in laravel http://laravel.com/docs/validation#working-with-error-messages and I followed them. So my code is

 $input = Input::all();
        $validation = Validator::make($input, Restaurant::$rules);

        if ($validation->passes())
        {
            Restaurant::create($input);

            return Redirect::route('users.index');
        }
        else{
            $messages = $validation->messages();
            foreach ($messages->all() as $message)
            {
                echo $message + "</br>";
            }
        }

I can see the error message but it is just 00. Is there a better way to know in which form's field the error is and what is the error description?

I already have rules and I now the input is breaking the rules but I need to read the error message

 $messages = $validation->messages();

            foreach ($messages->all('<li>:message</li>') as $message)
            {
                echo $message;
            }

Official Documentation

After calling the messages method on a Validator instance, you will receive a MessageBag instance, which has a variety of convenient methods for working with error messages.

According to the MessageBag documentation the function all Get all of the messages for every key in the bag.

You can access errors through the errors() object, and loop through the all rules' keys.

Something like this:

Route::get('error', function(){

    $inputs = array(
        'id'        => 5,
        'parentID'  => 'string',
        'title'     => 'abc',
    );

    $rules = array(
        'id'        => 'required|integer',
        'parentID'  => 'required|integer|min:1',
        'title'     => 'required|min:5',
    );

    $validation = Validator::make($inputs, $rules);

    if($validation->passes()) {
        return 'passed!';
    } else {
        $errors = $validation->errors(); //here's the magic
        $out = '';
        foreach($rules as $key => $value) {
            if($errors->has($key)) { //checks whether that input has an error.
                $out.= '<p>'$key.' field has this error:'.$errors->first($key).'</p>'; //echo out the first error of that input
            }
        }

        return $out;
    }

});
