John 6:1

View Chapter [ ]

& After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (or Tiberias).

& A large crowd followed Him, because they saw the signs which He was performing on those who were sick.

& Then Jesus went up on the mountain, and there He sat down with His disciples.

& Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near.

& Therefore Jesus, lifting up His eyes and seeing that a large crowd was coming to Him, *said to Philip, "Where are we to buy bread, so that these may eat?"

& This He was saying to test him, for He Himself knew what He was intending to do.

& Philip answered Him, "Two hundred (The denarius was equivalent to a day's wages) denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, for everyone to receive a little."

& One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, *said to Him,

& "There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these for so many people?"

& Jesus said, "Have the people sit down." Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

& Jesus then took the loaves, and having given thanks, He distributed to those who were seated; likewise also of the fish as much as they wanted.

& When they were filled, He *said to His disciples, "Gather up the leftover fragments so that nothing will be lost."

& So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.

& Therefore when the people saw the sign which He had performed, they said, "This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world."
