Provisions Light, Feeds All in Sight

And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick. And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals. But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat. And they say unto him, We have here but five loaves, and two fishes. He said, Bring them hither to me. And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude. And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the fragments that remained twelve baskets full. And they that had eaten were about five thousand men, beside women and children.-Matthew 14:14-21***Miriam and her younger brothers Aaron and Moses were born to Amram and Jochebed, Israelites from the tribe of Levi, descended from Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), Isaac and Rebekah, Jacob (Israel) and his 1st wife Leah, and Jacob and Leah's 3rd born son Levi. However, Moses lived as the son of the daughter of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. When Moses was 40 years old, he killed an Egyptian and hid the body. After the murder was mentioned to Moses during another conflict, and Pharaoh wanted to kill Egypt, Moses left Egypt and began living in Midian, and was married to Zipporah, a Midianite woman descended from Abraham and his 2nd wife Keturah, and Abraham and Keturah's son Midian. Moses was 80 years old when the Lord God sent Moses and 83-year-old Aaron to speak to the Israelites and Pharaoh, and tell Pharaoh to let the Israelites leave. Pharaoh refused to let the Israelites go worship the Lord God, and Pharaoh made the work harder for the enslaved Israelites. After the Lord God brought the 10th and final plague upon Pharaoh and Egypt, Pharaoh told Moses and Aaron to get the Israelites and their animals and go serve the Lord God. Moreover, Pharaoh told Moses and Aaron to bless him. Before Moses and Aaron led the Israelites, and those with them, away from Egypt, across the divinely parted Red Sea and into the desert wilderness of Shur, the Israelites asked for and received an abundance of valuable goods, fulfilling the words that the Lord God spoke to Abraham over 600 years earlier. Within 2 months of their journey, cries for food began. The Lord God told Moses that he was going to rain down  bread from heaven, manna, and the Lord God gave Moses commands for the Israelites to obey when gathering and preparing the manna.  During the 40-year journey to Canaan, the Promised Land, Miriam the prophetess died and was buried in Kadesh, in the desert wilderness of Zin. Upon Mount Hor, 123-year-old Aaron the high priest died. When Moses went upon Mount Nebo, the Lord God showed Moses the Promised Land, and 120-year-old Moses the prophet died and was divinely buried. Joshua, Moses' aide and successor from the tribe of Ephraim, led the Israelites across the divinely parted Jordan River and onto the land that the Lord God promised to give to Abraham, and Isaac, and to Jacob, and their descendants. Shortly thereafter, Joshua and the Israelites celebrated the Passover. The day after observing the Passover, the Israelites ate unleavened bread, and the grain in Canaan. The day after eating the bread and the grain, the Lord God did not provide any more manna for the Israelites. Approximately 1,300 years after 110-year-old Joshua died and was buried in his tribe's portion of the Promised Land, John the Baptist and Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, were born. John the Baptist was born into the tribe of Levi to Zechariah (Zacharias) the priest and his wife Elizabeth (Elisabeth). Jesus the Christ was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Elizabeth's relative Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Jacob and Leah's 4th born son Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. Approximately 30 years after John the Baptist and Jesus the Christ were born, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River by John the Baptist. Jesus having prayed, the heavens tearing open, the Holy Spirit descended as a dove and lit upon Jesus. The Lord God in heaven audibly acknowledged his Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert wilderness. Jesus fasted 40 days and nights and was tempted. Afterwards, Jesus was tended to by angels, and Jesus went to the area near John the Baptist, and John the Baptist proclaimed Jesus to be the Lamb of God taking away the sin of the world, and testified that Jesus is the Son of God. In Galilee, Jesus told specific Israelite men to follow him, and Jesus began to preach, teach and perform miracles among the Israelites, the treasured and chosen people of the Lord God. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that Jesus sometimes provided hungry people with a miraculous supply of food. In Capernaum, Galilee, Jesus identified himself as the bread of life, and the living bread, and said his Father, the Lord God in heaven, supplied the Israelite ancestors with manna.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus 1:1-19:24, Numbers 11:1-35, 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 8:1-20, 31:1-30, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-6:27, Nehemiah 9:1-38, Psalm 78:1-72, 105:1-45, Matthew 1:1-28:20, Mark 1:1-16:20, Luke 1:1-24:53, John 1:1-21:25, Acts 1:1-26
