BABBLERS PRESS - Some 5,000 men had been sitting and listening to Jesus, the controversial Rabbi from Nazareth, when suddenly his inner circle of disciples began distributing food to the multitude.
"All they had was five barely loaves and two small fish," said a witness who experienced the miracle for himself. "Yet we all got some. It was delicious too. I don't know how he did it but he managed to fill our bellies from practically nothing. It was like a miracle or something." After the miracle the mob of men tried to forcibly make Jesus their king. The Rabbi quickly fled the scene but the mob caught up with him in Capernaum. It was there that the Rabbi made His outlandish claim to be the living Bread which came down from heaven. "He told us that it order to have eternal life we had to eat his flesh and drink his blood," said another man. "What? Are you kidding me? Does he think he's better than Moses who gave our forefathers manna to eat?" John, a member of Jesus' inner circle of 12 disciples, said Jesus tried to explain that he wasn't speaking literally but spiritually. "He was really just talking about the need to believe in Him as the Messiah," said John. "But they refused to believe in Him. That was the real problem." Peter, the unofficial spokesperson for the group, said they didn't fully understand everything Jesus was saying either but they decided to stay with Him instead of going with the crowd because they had come to believe that He was indeed the promised Messiah. "Who else can we go to?" said Peter. "He has the words of eternal life."
