Thematic Bible: Feeds more than four-thousand people


Thematic Bible



Jesus summoned his disciples and said, "I have compassion on the crowd, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away fasting, or they might faint on the way." Then the disciples said to him, "Where should we get so many loaves in a deserted place as to satisfy so great a crowd?" Jesus said to them, "How many loaves do you have?" They said, "Seven, and a few small fish." read more.
He commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground; and he took the seven loaves and the fish. He gave thanks and broke them, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the crowds. They all ate, and were filled. They took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over. Those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children. Then he sent away the crowds, got into the boat, and came into the borders of Magadan.

In those days, when there was a great crowd, and they had nothing to eat, he called his disciples to himself, and said to them, "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have stayed with me now three days, and have nothing to eat. If I send them away fasting to their home, they will faint on the way, and some of them have come a long way." read more.
His disciples answered him, "From where could one satisfy these people with bread here in a deserted place?" He asked them, "How many loaves do you have?" They said, "Seven." He commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground, and he took the seven loaves. Having given thanks, he broke them, and gave them to his disciples to serve, and they served the crowd. They had a few small fish. Having blessed them, he said to serve these also. They ate, and were filled. They took up seven baskets of broken pieces that were left over. Now they were about four thousand. Then he sent them away.
