   the dead; and therefore mighty works do shew forth themselves in him.   
   [3] For Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison   
   for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.   
   [4] For John said unto him, It is not lawful for thee to have her.   
   [5] And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude,   
   because they counted him as a prophet.   
   [6] But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced   
   before them, and pleased Herod.   
   [7] Whereupon he promised with an oath to give her whatsoever she would ask.   
   [8] And she, being before instructed of her mother, said, Give me here John   
   Baptist's head in a charger.   
   [9] And the king was sorry: nevertheless for the oath's sake, and them which   
   sat with him at meat, he commanded it to be given her.   
   [10] And he sent, and beheaded John in the prison.   
   [11] And his head was brought in a charger, and given to the damsel: and she   
   brought it to her mother.   
   [12] And his disciples came, and took up the body, and buried it, and went   
   and told Jesus.   
      
   The Feeding of the Five Thousand   
   Mk 6:30-44; Lk 9:10-17; Jn 6:1-14   
      
   13 (Lk 9:10-17) When Jesus heard this, He departed from there by boat   
   for a deserted place. But when the people heard it, they followed Him   
   on foot from the cities.   
   14 (Mt 9:36; 4:23) Jesus went ashore and saw a great assembly.   
   And He was moved with compassion toward them, and He healed their sick.   
   15 (Mt 15:23) When it was evening, His disciples came to Him, saying,   
   "This is a lonely place and the day is now over. Send the crowds away   
   to go into the villages and buy themselves food."   
   16 (2Ki 4:42-44) But Jesus said to them, "They do not need to depart.   
   You give them something to eat."   
   17 They said to Him, "We have only five loaves here and two fish.   
   18 He said, "Bring them here to Me."   
   19 (1Sa 9:13; Lk 24:30) Then He commanded the crowds to sit down   
   on the grass. He took the five loaves and the two fish,   
   and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke and gave the loaves   
   to His disciples; and the disciples gave them to the crowds.   
   20 (Lk 9:17) They all ate and were filled. And they took up twelve baskets   
   full of the fragments that remained.   
   21 Those who had eaten were about five thousand men,   
   besides women and children.   
      
   [13] When Jesus heard of it, he departed thence by ship into a desert place   
   apart: and when the people had heard thereof, they followed him on foot out   
   of the cities.   
   [14] And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with   
   compassion toward them, and he healed their sick.   
   [15] And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a   
   desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they   
   may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals.   
   [16] But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat.   
   [17] And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes.   
   [18] He said, Bring them hither to me.   
   [19] And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the   
   five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and   
   brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the   
   multitude.   
   [20] And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the   
   fragments that remained twelve baskets full.   
   [21] And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and   
   children.   
      
   Mark 6:30-44   
      
   The Feeding of the Five Thousand   
   Mt 14:13-21; Lk 9:10-17; Jn 6:1-14   
      
   30 (Lk 9:10; Mt 10:2; Lk 17:5) The apostles met with Jesus   
   and told him everything, both what they had done and what they had taught.   
   31 (Mk 3:20) Then He said to them, "Come away by yourselves   
   to a remote place and rest a while," for many were coming and going,   
   and they had no leisure even to eat.   
   32 So they went into a remote place privately by boat.   
   33 But the people saw them departing, and many knew Him and ran   
   there on foot out of every city. They arrived first and came together   
   to Him.   
   34 (Mt 9:36; Nu 27:17) When Jesus came out and saw many people,   
   He was moved with compassion on them, because they were like sheep   
   without a shepherd. And He began to teach them many things.   
   35 When the day was now getting late, His disciples came to Him and said,   
   "This is a remote place, and now the time is passing.   
   36 (Mt 15:23) Send them away into the surrounding country   
   and villages to buy themselves bread, for they have nothing to eat."   
   37 (2Ki 4:42-44; Nu 11:13) But He answered, "You give them something to eat."   
   They said to Him, "Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii   
   [Eight months' wages.] worth of bread and give it to them to eat?"   
   38 (Mt 15:34; Mk 8:5) He said to them, "How many loaves have you? Go and see."   
   When they found out, they said, "Five, and two fish."   
   39 Then He commanded them to make everyone sit down by companies on the green   
   grass.   
   40 So they sat down in ranks, by hundreds and by fifties.   
   41 (Mt 14:19; 1Sa 9:13) When He had taken the five loaves and the two fish,   
   He looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke the loaves,   
   and gave them to His disciples to set before them.   
   And He divided the two fish among them all.   
   42 They all ate and were filled.   
   43 And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments and of the fish.   
   44 Those who ate of the loaves were about five thousand men.   
      
   [30] And the apostles gathered themselves together unto Jesus, and told him   
   all things, both what they had done, and what they had taught.   
   [31] And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place,   
   and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no   
   leisure so much as to eat.   
   [32] And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.   
   [33] And the people saw them departing, and many knew him, and ran afoot   
   thither out of all cities, and outwent them, and came together unto him.   
   [34] And Jesus, when he came out, saw much people, and was moved with   
   compassion toward them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd:   
   and he began to teach them many things.   
   [35] And when the day was now far spent, his disciples came unto him, and   
   said, This is a desert place, and now the time is far passed:   
   [36] Send them away, that they may go into the country round about, and into   
   the villages, and buy themselves bread: for they have nothing to eat.   
   [37] He answered and said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they say unto   
   him, Shall we go and buy two hundred pennyworth of bread, and give them to   
   eat?   
   [38] He saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? go and see. And when they   
   knew, they say, Five, and two fishes.   
   [39] And he commanded them to make all sit down by companies upon the green   
   grass.   
   [40] And they sat down in ranks, by hundreds, and by fifties.   
   [41] And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up   
   to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples   
   to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.   
   [42] And they did all eat, and were filled.   
   [43] And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the   
   fishes.   
   [44] And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.   
      
   Luke 9:10-17   
      
   The Feeding of the Five Thousand   
   Mt 14:13-21; Mk 6:30-44; Jn 6:1-14   
      
   10 (Mt 11:21; Lk 10:17) When the apostles returned, they told Jesus   
   all that they had done. Then He took them and went aside privately   
   into a deserted place belonging to the city called Bethsaida.   
   11 But when the crowds knew it, they followed Him.
