In John 6:1-14, Jesus feeds a large crowd of people near the Sea of Galilee with only five loaves of bread and two fish, demonstrating his divine power. Despite initial doubts from his disciples, he multiplies the food miraculously, so that everyone eats their fill. This event showcases Jesus' ability to provide abundantly for physical needs while also symbolizing his role as the spiritual "bread of life" who satisfies deeper hunger.
