Jesus replied,“ You give them something to eat.” The disciples answered,“ We have only five loaves of bread and two fish. We would have to go and buy food for all this crowd.”
Jesus looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward him. So he said to Philip,“ Where can we buy bread for these people to eat?”He asked this only to test Philip. He already knew what he was going to do.Philip answered him,“ Suppose we were able to buy enough bread for each person to have just a bite. That would take more than half a year’s pay!”
Many of the Samaritans from the town of Sychar believed in Jesus. They believed because of what the woman had said about him. She said,“ He told me everything I’ve ever done.”
