God will bless our giving and meet our needs....in our time the miracle continues....through the few dollars of Joe and Beths offerings and Ed and Mary's tithes (meaning our total giving) God multiplies it out and even this day we feed millions, house and give medical care to 1,000s and 1,000s and all without a single dollar of Caesars money (Taxes of the nations)....Christian missions and charity does more with less than any 10 nations combined.
To be carrying them with for hours I assume the fish were dried.
All of them.
5 small barley loaves and two small fish (Miracle in Gospel of John)
Matthew 14:14-22 describes the miracle where Jesus fed over 5000 people with five loaves of bread and two fish.(Luke 9:130(John 6:9)
The Bible doesn't describe the size of the loaves of bread in Mark 6:38-43. What is significant is not the size of the loaves, but the amount of them. If Jesus was able to break up five loaves into enough pieces to feed 5,000 men (Mark 6:44), it was indeed a miracle!
three loaves, to fish
The boy offered Jesus five loaves of bread and two fish for lunch. Jesus used this small meal to perform a miracle, feeding thousands of people in the crowd.
The Bible is silent on the identify of the type of fish. It should be noted that the sign of the Fish- Icthys in Greek was an early Christian symbol. The miracle, as the bible relates actually occured and the food resources were multiplied. On the other hand the (Good Samaritan) was an allegorical parable, and he was not a real person, Jesus does not reveal him by name. He was not one of the twelve apostles, that is obvious. The Good Samaritan is fiction-in-truth,. or truth in fiction. On the oither hand the food-multiplying feat was real.
