John 6:1-9 ▼

1 After these things, Jesus traveled across the sea of Galilee, which is the Sea of Tiberias.

2 And a great multitude was following him, for they saw the signs that he was accomplishing toward those who were infirm.

3 Therefore, Jesus went onto a mountain, and he sat down there with his disciples.

4 Now the Passover, the feast day of the Jews, was near.

5 And so, when Jesus had lifted up his eyes and had seen that a very great multitude came to him, he said to Philip, “From where should we buy bread, so that these may eat?”

6 But he said this to test him. For he himself knew what he would do.

7 Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii of bread would not be sufficient for each of them to receive even a little.”

8 One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to him:

9 “There is a certain boy here, who has five barley loaves and two fish. But what are these among so many?”
