Peace
Just wanted to find out what words in the Pshitta are used to discuss this event of Jesus distributing a small amount of bread to x thousand - I say x because I don't know the exact number. Some sources say 4 some say 5. But anyway the point is a small amount of food distributed to a large number of people. Please can someone outline the words used.
In addition - is it possible that this may be an allegory as I think it is very possible. Food = his teaching [being the bread of life] which he is distributing to x thousand people, if you catch my drift.
Comments welcome
Thanks
