So they went forth, and walked from village to village, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere. Now Herod, the Tetrarch, heard of all that was happening; and he was perplexed because of its being said by someone that John was risen from the dead; and by some that Elijah had appeared; and by others that one of the ancient prophets was risen again. So Herod said, "I beheaded John, but who is this of whom I am hearing such reports," And he kept seeking to see him. On their return the apostles told him what they had done. and he took them and withdrew in private to a town called Bethsaida. But when the crowd learned this they followed him.

But now the day began to decline, and the twelve came to him and said: "Send away the crowd so that they may go into the villages and surrounding the country to lodge and buy provisions; for here we are on a solitary place." "Do you yourselves give them food," he answered. "We have nothing," they replied "Except five loaves, and a couple fish, unless you mean for us to go and buy provisions for all the crowd." (For there were about five thousand men.) "Make them sit down in table-companies, of about fifty each," he said to his disciples. This they did, and made them all sit down.

So they ate and were filled, all of them. And there was picked up that which remained over to them, of broken pieces, twelve basketfuls.
