John 6:12-22

12 After they had eaten their fill, he told his talmidim, "Gather the leftover pieces, so that nothing gets wasted."
13 They gathered them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces from the five barley loaves left by those who had eaten.
14 When the people saw the miracle he had performed, they said, "This has to be `the prophet' who is supposed to come into the world."
15 Yeshua knew that they were on the point of coming and seizing him, in order to make him king; so he went back to the hills again. This time he went by himself.
16 When evening came, his talmidim went down to the lake,
17 got into a boat and set out across the lake toward K'far-Nachum. By now it was dark, Yeshua had not yet joined them,
18 and the sea was getting rough, because a strong wind was blowing.
19 They had rowed three or four miles when they saw Yeshua approaching the boat, walking on the lake! They were terrified;
20 but he said to them, "Stop being afraid, it is I."
21 Then they were willing to take him into the boat, and instantly the boat reached the land they were heading for.
22 The next day, the crowd which had stayed on the other side of the lake noticed that there had been only one boat there, and that Yeshua had not entered the boat with his talmidim, but that the talmidim had been alone when they sailed off.
