John Chapter 6
The Fourth Sign: Feeding 5,000
1 After this, Jesus crossed the Sea of Galilee (or Tiberias).
2 And a huge crowd was following Him because they saw the signs that He was
performing on the sick.
3 So Jesus went up a mountain and sat down there with His disciples.
4 Now the passover, a Jewish festival, was near.
5 Therefore, when Jesus looked up and noticed a huge crowd coming toward Him, He
asked Philip, "Where will we buy bread so these people can eat?"
6 He asked this to test him, for He Himself knew what He was going to do.
7 Philip answered, "Two hundred denarii worth of bread wouldn't be enough for
each of them to have a little."
8 One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,
9 "There's a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish-but what are they
for so many?"
10 Then Jesus said, "Have the people sit down." There was plenty of grass in
that place, so they sat down. The men numbered about 5,000.
11 Then Jesus took the loaves, and after giving thanks He distributed them to
those who were seated-so also with the fish, as much as they wanted.
12 When they were full, He told His disciples, "Collect the leftovers so that
nothing is wasted."
13 So they collected them and filled 12 baskets with the pieces from the five
barley loaves that were left over by those who had eaten.
14 When the people saw the sign He had done, they said, "This really is the
Prophet who was to come into the world!"
15 Therefore, when Jesus knew that they were about to come and take Him by force
to make Him king, He withdrew again to the
mountain by Himself.
The Fifth Sign: Walking on Water
16 When evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,
17 got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. Darkness had
already set in, but Jesus had not yet come to them.
18 Then a high wind arose, and the sea began to churn.
19 After they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea. He was coming near the
boat, and they were afraid.
20 But He said to them, "It is I Don't be afraid!"
21 Then they were willing to take Him on board, and at once the boat was at the
shore where they were heading.
