Jesus has his disciples tell the crowd to recline on the green grass in groups of 50 and of 100. After saying a blessing, he begins breaking the bread and dividing up the fish.
ثُمَّ ،‏ بَدَلًا مِنْ أَنْ يُعْطِيَ ٱلطَّعَامَ لِلنَّاسِ مُبَاشَرَةً ،‏ وَزَّعَهُ « عَلَى ٱلتَّلَامِيذِ ،‏ وَٱلتَّلَامِيذُ عَلَى ٱلْجُمُوعِ » .‏
