The story of Jesus feeding the 5,000 with fish and bread, as told in Matthew 14:13-21, Mark 6:30-44, Luke 9:10-17, and John 6:1-15, shows Jesus' compassion and miraculous power. By multiplying the small amount of food, Jesus was able to feed a large crowd and demonstrate his ability to provide for people's physical needs. It also foreshadows the Last Supper, where Jesus would feed his disciples with bread and wine as a symbol of his sacrifice for their spiritual needs.
