Mute


Jesus heals crowds of the blind

Jesus walks beside the Sea of Galilee and climbs the mountain to rest. Great crowds came to bring lame, blind, crippled, mute, and others to His feet, and He healed them. They wondered and glorified the God of Israel.

Then Jesus called the disciples to him and said, "I have compassion on the crowd because they have been with me now three days and have nothing to eat. And I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way.” The disciples said, “Where are we to get enough bread in such a desolate place to feed so great a crowd?” Jesus asked, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”

Jesus directed the crowd to sit. He took the seven loaves and the fish, and having given thanks he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. They four thousand men, besides women and children, ate and were satisfied. They took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces left over. And after sending away the crowds, he got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.
