SUMMARY: In Mark 6:30-44, Jesus performs the miracle of the multiplication of the loaves and fish to feed the crowd. The disciples were initially afraid and unsure of how to feed the multitude with only five loaves and two fish, but Jesus commands them to divide the crowd into groups and have faith. When Jesus blesses and breaks the loaves and fish, there is enough food for all and even leftovers. This story teaches us to have faith and not be overwhelmed by problems, but to act in the power and wisdom of Christ. God is powerful enough to fill any need in our lives and make us instruments of His grace.

Multiplication of the loaves and fishes (Mark 6:30)

In this series, Dr. Miranda speaks of the compassionate Christ who, instead of rejecting the crowd that had followed him and his disciples, had compassion on them and took time to teach them. In contrast, the disciples have a superficial and selfish attitude.

On this occasion we are going to conclude this long study of Chapter 6 of the Gospel according to Saint Mark, beginning with verse 30, where we see the multiplication of the loaves and fish, this well-known miracle of the Lord Jesus Christ. We have gone through a very large amount of profound biblical teaching and today we are concluding seeing the miracle itself.

The crowd is hungry, the day has passed, the night is coming, the disciples say to our Lord Jesus Christ: “Lord, send them away now, they have to go and buy food”. The Lord surprises the disciples by saying: "Give him something to eat." The disciples are horrified saying: "How is it possible that we feed such a large crowd?"
