Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand. This story is told in all four Gospels, so it must have made quite an impact at the time.

He performs a miracle and everyone is fed. At another occasion He does it again, feeding another several thousand men as well as the women and children. What did not happen in either of these events?

What is not described in biblical accounts of this miracle?
