6. He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he would do.
7. Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may receive a little.”
8. One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him,
9. “There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what are these amongst so many?”
10. Yeshua said, “Have the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in that place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.
11. Yeshua took the loaves; and having given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were sitting down; likewise also of the fish as much as they desired.
12. When they were filled, he said to his disciples, “Gather up the broken pieces which are left over, that nothing be lost.”
13. So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which were left over by those who had eaten.
14. When therefore the people saw the sign which Yeshua did, they said, “This is truly the Prophet who comes into the world.”
15. Yeshua therefore, perceiving that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, withdrew again to the mountain by himself.
16. When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea.
17. They entered into the boat, and were going over the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Yeshua had not come to them.
18. The sea was tossed by a great wind blowing.
19. When therefore they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they saw Yeshua walking on the sea, and drawing near to the boat; and they were afraid.
20. But he said to them, “It is I. Don’t be afraid.”
21. They were willing therefore to receive him into the boat. Immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.
22. On the next day, the multitude that stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except the one in which his disciples had embarked, and that Yeshua hadn’t entered with his disciples into the boat, but his disciples had gone away alone.
23. However boats from Tiberias came near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.
24. When the multitude therefore saw that Yeshua wasn’t there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats, and came to Capernaum, seeking Yeshua.
25. When they found him on the other side of the sea, they asked him, “Rabbi, when did you come here?”
