Luke 9:9-19

9 Herod said, "I had Yochanan beheaded, so who is this about whom I keep hearing such things?" And he began trying to see him.
10 On their return, the emissaries detailed to Yeshua what they had done. Then, taking them with him, he withdrew by himself to a town called Beit-Tzaidah.
11 But the crowds found out and followed him. Welcoming them, he went on to speak to them about the Kingdom of God and to heal those who needed to be healed.
12 The day began to draw to a close. The Twelve came to him and said, "Send the crowd away, so that they can go and get lodging and food in the towns and farms around here, because where we are is a remote place."
13 But he said to them, "Give them something to eat, yourselves!" They said, "We have no more than five loaves of bread and two fish -- unless we ourselves are supposed to go and buy food for all these people!"
14 (For there were about five thousand men.) He said to his talmidim, "Make them sit down in groups of about fifty each."
15 They did what he told them and had them all sit down.
16 Then he took the five loaves and the two fish and, looking up toward heaven, made a b'rakhah, broke the loaves and began giving them to the talmidim to distribute to the crowd.
17 Everyone ate as much as he wanted; and they took up what was left over, twelve baskets full of broken pieces.
18 Once when Yeshua was praying in private, his talmidim were with him; and he asked them, "Who are the crowds saying I am?"
19 They answered, "Yochanan the Immerser; but others say Eliyahu, and others that some prophet of long ago has risen."
