Feeding of the Five Thousand

10 When the apostles returned,(A) they reported to Jesus all that they had done.(B) He took them along and withdrew privately to a[a] town called Bethsaida.(C) 11 When the crowds found out, they followed him. He welcomed them,(D) spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who needed healing.
