"The Bread of the Kingdom" - from "crumbs for dogs" to loaves for children. . . another miraculous feeding of the multitudes, this time only 4,000: a different time, place, and crowd (gentiles). The need for and provision of the Kingdom transcends race, face and place . . . . we have a constant need to receive and give His grace. "Jesus is not a stirrer of crowds; he does not use them; he welcomes them, brings them together and feeds them." (Bonnard)
