Matthew 14:15-21

Feeding the Five Thousand

Matthew 14:15-21
15
When evening came, the disciples came to Him and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late. Dismiss the crowds so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”
16
“They do not need to go away,” Jesus replied. “You give them something to eat.”
17
“We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.
18
“Bring them here to Me,” Jesus said.
19
And He directed the crowds to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, He spoke a blessing. Then He broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.
20
They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.
21
About five thousand men were fed, in addition to women and children.
