Matthew 15:24-39

24But He responded, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

25So she came and got down on her knees before Him, saying, “Master, help me!”

26And answering, He said, “It’s not right to take the children’s bread and throw it to the dogs.”

27But she said, “Yes, Master, but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table.”

28Then answering, Yeshua said to her, “O woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as you wish.” And her daughter was healed in that very hour.

29After Yeshua left there, He went along the Sea of Galilee. Then He went up on a mountainside and was sitting there.

30And large crowds came to Him, bringing with them the lame, blind, disabled, mute, and many others. And they laid them at His feet, and He healed them.

31So the crowd marveled when they saw the mute speaking, the disabled made whole, the lame walking, and the blind seeing. And they praised the God of Israel.

32Yeshua called His disciples and said, “I have compassion for the crowd, because they’ve stayed with Me for three days now and have nothing to eat. I don’t want to send them away hungry, because they might pass out on the way.”

33The disciples said to Him, “Where in this wasteland is enough bread to satisfy such a large crowd?”

34Yeshua said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” “Seven,” they said, “and a few small fish.”

35After directing the crowd to recline on the ground,

36He took the seven loaves and the fish; and after giving thanks, He broke them. And He began giving them to the disciples, and the disciples to the crowds.

37And they all ate and were satisfied. And they picked up the broken pieces left over—seven baskets full.

38And those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.

39And after sending away the crowds, Yeshua got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.
