Jesus Feeds 4000

Jesus feeds a crowd of 4,000 people who had been listening to him speak for three days. Though they only had seven loaves of bread and a few small fish, Jesus blessed the food and it multiplied to feed the entire crowd, with seven baskets of leftovers. The disciples were concerned about having enough food for such a large group in the desert, but Jesus showed his power to provide for the people through divine means.

Jesus Feeds Four Thousand

Matthew 15:32-39

Along the banks of Lake Galilee, a crowd had gathered over 3 days
to watch Jesus heal many people of their illnesses.
Once Jesus had finished he called his disciples over and said

Jesus: I feel sorry for these people, they have been with me for 3
days and now have nothing to eat. I dont want to send them away
without feeding them, for they might faint on their way home.

Then a disciple asked:

Disciple: Where will we find enough food in this desert to feed all of
these crowd?

Jesus: How much bread do you have?

Disciple: Seven loaves and a few small fish

Jesus ordered the crowd to sit in the ground. He took the leaves
and fish, gave thanks to God, broke them, and gave them to the
disciples to pass around to the crowd. They all ate and had enough.
Then the disciples filled 7 baskets with what was left over. The
number of men was 4000, not including the women and children in
the crowd.

Once the crowd had eaten Jesus sent them away and he and his
disciples left.
