We will take a look at each one. The Table of Showbread contained 12 loaves of bread, the bread of life for each of the 12 tribes of Israel. It represented the staff of life for God's Covenant people. The priests were responsible to see that there were always fresh loaves on the table. In this way He pointed to His teachings as the bread of life for us.
Bible study is one of the building blocks of the Christian experience.
But as Jesus distributes the bread of life to us in His Word, He also expects that Christians will distribute that bread of life to the rest of the world. Once surrounded by thousands of people, the disciples asked Jesus to send the crowd away because they had nothing to eat. They would distribute the bread of life. Notice that in verse 43 they took up twelve baskets of fragments. The more they distributed, the more they had for themselves.
