A
man came to the prophet Elisha and brought him twenty barley loaves and a
sack of grain. Elisha said to his servant: Share them out so that all may eat.
The servant answered: How can a hundred men be fed with that? But Elisha
repeated his words: Give them to the people to eat. You will see that there
will be left-overs. The servant shared out the food. When everyone had eaten,
left-overs remained. It was just as the Lord had said through Elisha.
