According to the synoptic Gospels, Jesus performed a miracle in which a small amount of food fed a large crowd. Identify the miracle, state the exact number of people fed, and explain how the quantities of loaves and fishes relate to an Old‑Testament type‑scene of divine provision.
Answer Options
A.
The miracle is the feeding of the 4,000 (Mark 8:1‑10); about 4,000 men (plus women and children) were fed with seven loaves and a few fishes, which loosely echo the seven baskets of manna and show God's generous provision.
B.
The miracle is the feeding of the 5,000 (Matthew 14:13‑21); about 5,000 men (plus women and children) were fed with three loaves and four fishes, which mistakenly ties the event to the three loaves of the Passover offering rather than the manna.
C.
The miracle is the feeding of the 5,000 (Matthew 14:13‑21); about 5,000 men (plus women and children) were fed with five loaves and two fishes, which are incorrectly linked to the five plagues of Egypt instead of the Old‑Testament manna narrative.
Correct Answer
D.
The miracle is the feeding of the 5,000 (Matthew 14:13‑21); about 5,000 men (plus women and children) were fed with five loaves and two fishes, which typologically recall the five loaves of manna and illustrate God's super‑abundant provision.
