Did Jesus exist?

[Wyrd of Gawd]

It's not even remotely about sharing.  That's as good a lesson to take from it as any, though, I suppose.  The stories are about a divine miracle, a theologically pregnant divine miracle.

Don't forget about the Jewish custom of hospitality and of offering strangers food when they came visiting.  Just because the crowd was in the wilderness far from home did not excuse them from the obligation of hospitality.  They had also been told to love their neighbors.  Sharing food is one expression of loving one's neighbors.
