And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.
7 Philip answered him, Loaves for two hundred denarii are not sufficient for them, that each may have some little [portion].
Philip answered him, Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.

And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

16 But when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea,

22 On the morrow the crowd which stood on the other side of the sea, having seen that there was no other little ship there except that into which his disciples had got, and that Jesus had not gone with his disciples into the ship, but [that] his disciples had gone away alone;
The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;
23 (but other little ships out of Tiberias came near to the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks; )
