015:032 Jesus summoned his disciples and said, "I have compassion on
the multitude, because they continue with me now three days
and have nothing to eat. I don't want to send them away fasting,
or they might faint on the way."
015:033 The disciples said to him, "Where should we get so many loaves
in a deserted place as to satisfy so great a multitude?"
015:034 Jesus said to them, "How many loaves do you have?"
They said, "Seven, and a few small fish."
015:035 He commanded the multitude to sit down on the ground;
015:036 and he took the seven loaves and the fish. He gave thanks
and broke them, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples
to the multitudes.
015:037 They all ate, and were filled. They took up seven baskets
full of the broken pieces that were left over.
015:038 Those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.
015:039 Then he sent away the multitudes, got into the boat, and came
into the borders of Magdala.
016:001 The Pharisees and Sadducees came, and testing him, asked him
to show them a sign from heaven.
016:002 But he answered them, "When it is evening, you say, 'It will
be fair weather, for the sky is red.'
016:003 In the morning, 'It will be foul weather today, for the sky
is red and threatening.' Hypocrites! You know how to discern
the appearance of the sky, but you can't discern the signs
of the times!
016:004 An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and there
will be no sign given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah."
He left them, and departed.
016:005 The disciples came to the other side and had forgotten
to take bread.
016:006 Jesus said to them, "Take heed and beware of the yeast
of the Pharisees and Sadducees."
016:007 They reasoned among themselves, saying, "We brought no bread."
016:008 Jesus, perceiving it, said, "Why do you reason among yourselves,
you of little faith, 'because you have brought no bread?'
016:009 Don't you yet perceive, neither remember the five loaves
for the five thousand, and how many baskets you took up?
016:010 Nor the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets
you took up?
016:011 How is it that you don't perceive that I didn't speak
to you concerning bread? But beware of the yeast of the
Pharisees and Sadducees."
016:012 Then they understood that he didn't tell them to beware of the yeast
of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
016:013 Now when Jesus came into the parts of Caesarea Philippi,
he asked his disciples, saying, "Who do men say that I,
the Son of Man, am?"
016:014 They said, "Some say John the Baptizer, some, Elijah, and others,
Jeremiah, or one of the prophets."
016:015 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"
016:016 Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of
