Feeding the 5000.
Matthew 14:13
Feeding 5,000
13 When Jesus heard about it, He saw a huge crowd, felt compassion for them, and healed their sick.Send the crowds away so they can go into the villages and buy food for themselves.” 16 “They don’t need to go away,” Jesus told them. “You give them something to eat.” 17 “But we only have five loaves and two fish here,” they said to Him. 18 “Bring them here to Me,” He said. 19 Then He commanded the crowds to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed them. He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.Everyone ate and was filled. Then they picked up 12 baskets full of leftover pieces! 21 Now those who ate were about 5,000 men, besides women and children.
John 6:6 After this Jesus went away to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, which is the Sea of Tiberias. the mountain, and there he sat down with his disciples.the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand. Lifting up his eyes, then, and seeing that a large crowd was coming toward him, Jesus said to Philip, “Where are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?” Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread would not be enough for each of them to get a little.” Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him, barley loaves and two fish, but what are they for so many?” Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, about five thousand in number.when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated. So also the fish, as much as they wanted. “This is indeed the Prophet who is to come into the world!”
Mark 6:30 The apostles returned to Jesus and told him all that they had done and taught. they had no leisure even to eat. And they went away in the boat to a desolate place by themselves. recognized them, and they ran there on foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them. saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things. Send them away to go into the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.” “You give them something to eat.” And they said to him,“Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give it to them to eat?” “Five, and two fish.” looked up to heaven and said a blessing and broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples to set before the people. And he divided the two fish among them all. 42 And they all ate and were satisfied. 43 And they took up twelve baskets full of broken pieces and of the fish. 44 And those who ate the loaves were five thousand men.
Luke 9:10 And the apostles, when they were returned, told him all that they had done. And he took them, and went aside privately into a desert place belonging to the city called Bethsaida. 11 And the people, when they knew it, followed him: and he received them, and spake unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need of healing. 12 And when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said unto him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert place. 13 But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more but five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy meat for all this people. 14 For they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down by fifties in a company. 15 And they did so, and made them all sit down. 16 Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed them, and brake, and gave to the disciples to set before the multitude. 17 And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them twelve baskets.
