Thematic Bible: Miracle of the five


Thematic Bible



And, evening coming on, the disciples came to Him, saying, "The place is desert, and the time already passed by: dismiss the multitudes, that, having gone into the villages, they may buy food for themselves." But Jesus said to them, "They have no need to go away. Give ye them to eat." And they say to Him, "We have nothing here except five loaves and two fishes." read more.
And He said, "Bring them here to Me." And, having commanded the multitudes to recline on the grass??aking the five loaves and two fishes??ooking up into the heaven, He blessed; and, having broken, He gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes. And they all ate, and were satisfied; and they took up that which remained over of the broken pieces, twelve baskets full. And those eating were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

And the day began to decline. And the twelve, coming near, said to Him, "Send away the multitudes; that, going into the villages and country round about, they may lodge and find food; because we are here in a desert place." But He said to them, "Give ye them to eat." And they said, "We have no more than five loaves and two fishes; unless we, going, should buy food for all this people." (For they were about five thousand men). And He said to His disciples, "Make them recline in companies of about fifty each." read more.
And they did so, and made them all recline. And, taking the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up into Heaven, He blessed them, and broke, and kept giving to the disciples to set before the multitude. And they ate, and were all filled. And there was taken up that which remained to them of broken pieces, twelve baskets.

Do ye not yet perceive, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
