Contextual Overview

1 After these things, Jesus went to the other side of the sea of Galilee [fn] of Tiberias. 2 And great multitudes went after him; because they had seen the signs which he wrought upon the sick. 3 And Jesus ascended a mountain, and there he seated himself with his disciples. 4 And the feast of the Jewish passover was near. 5 And Jesus raised his eyes, and saw a great multitude coming towards him; and he said to Philip: Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat? 6 And this he said, to try him; for he knew what he was about to do. 7 Philip said to him: Two hundred denarii in bread would not suffice them, that each might take but a little. 8 One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Cephas, said to him: 9 There is a lad here, who hath with him five cakes of barley, and two fishes; but what are these for all those [fn] ? 10 Jesus said to them: Make all the people recline. Now there was much grass in that place: and the people reclined, in number five thousand.

saith unto him; to Christ, with but little more faith than Philip, if any.
