John 6:1-9 ▼

1 After this, Jesus crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias).

2 A large crowd followed Him because they saw His signs He was performing on the sick.

3 Then Jesus went up on the mountain and sat down with His disciples.

4 Now the Jewish Feast of the Passover was near.

5 When Jesus looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward Him, He said to Philip, “Where can we buy bread for these people to eat?”

6 But He was asking this to test him, for He knew what He was about to do.

7 Philip answered, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a small piece.”

8 One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him,

9 “Here is a boy with five barley loaves and two small fish. But what difference will these make among so many?”
