How many money plates was passed when Jesus fed the 5,000 or the 4,000?

No money was passed because the entire story is a myth.

You can throw all traditions that Christianity teaches into the same category as traditions of eating with unwashed hands.. If it's Not Biblical TRUTHS don't conform your life to traditions of Man..

Why walk not thy disciples according to the TRADITION of the elders, but eat bread with unwashen hands?

6 He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the TRADITION of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and MANY other such like things ye do.

9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own TRADITION.

Bitter. CAN'T change TRUTH.. There is no charge in the word of God.
Jesus took All of Moses laws upon himself. No more mandatory tribute tax..

24On their arrival in Capernaum, the collectors of the Temple taxe came to Peter and asked him, "Doesn't your teacher pay the Temple tax?"

25"Yes, he does," Peter replied. Then he went into the house.

But before he had a chance to speak, Jesus asked him, "What do you think, Peter?f Do kings tax their own people or the people they have conquered?g"

26"They tax the people they have conquered," Peter replied.

"Well, then," Jesus said, "the citizens are free! 27However, we don't want to offend them, so go down to the lake and throw in a line. Open the mouth of the first fish you catch, and you will find a large silver coin.h Take it and pay the tax for both of us."

There was No charge for the food. Jesus gave FREELY. There was a boy that offered his food FREELY. Jesus blessed it and the Disciples distributed Freely to all. The is no charge in the teaching of the word of God. The boy didn't charge.

Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?"

54] Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. [55] For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. [56] He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

What Mikey has glossed over in his selective interpretation of the Bible is that when Jesus fed the 5,000 and later, when He fed the 4,000, He used the donations of others to accomplish the miracles.


In Matthew 14, John 6, Luke 9 and Mark 6 we read that Jesus turned 5 loaves of bread and two fish into enough food to feed around 5,000 men (not counting women and children) and had food left over.

In Matthew 15 and Mark 8 we read that at another time, Jesus turned seven loaves of bread and a few small fish into enough food to feed around 4,000 men (not counting women and children) and had food left over.

Whether the donations came from the disciples themselves or from members of the crowd (as John 6:9 says) the fact remains that Jesus blessed those donated foods to multiply the good they did. Since there were baskets full of leftovers collected after the crowds had finished eating, we can only assume that the person or people giving the donations ate all they wanted even after making their donation.

God SAID,, If you obey my Voice I will be your God and you will be My people...

Well, then," Jesus said, "the citizens are free! 27However, we don't want to offend them, so go down to the lake and throw in a line. Open the mouth of the first fish you catch, and you will find a large silver coin.h Take it and pay the tax for both of us.

So next time someone ask you to pay tribute. Tell them you are a citizen of God ..

Is Jesus your Passover or do you sacrifice a lamb every Year? Jesus became the Sacrificial Lamb once for All times.. Moses Laws was in effect UNTIL God sent a spokesman to talk for him. God the Father sent His Own WORDS through Jesus..
______

Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.

18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.

Foxnose how about Graham Kenneth Copeland and all the TV ministry Like Jim and Tammy Faye Baker. Payment of the Temple Tax

24On their arrival in Capernaum, the collectors of the Temple taxe came to Peter and asked him, "Doesn't your teacher pay the Temple tax?"

25"Yes, he does," Peter replied. Then he went into the house.

But before he had a chance to speak, Jesus asked him, "What do you think, Peter?f Do kings tax their own people or the people they have conquered?g"

26"They tax the people they have conquered," Peter replied.

I guess a better question for Mikey would be, How many have you and your (sister, daughter or whoever that is that take up for your ignorance) fed? I am saying, "not many". You mentioned all those millionaires, can you give us some names? Where do you get your information, we need a source.

Absolutely C.R.A.Z.Y......to want to argue with people about specifics/details that are meaningless.

You can't see the forest for the trees.

Meaningless to tell the TRUTH.

you just said, "THE JEWS paid tribute".AND

AND!
AND! "Jesus don't ask for tribute".
Jesus was a Jew. AND(!) said He came to enforce The Law
______

The only law Jesus came to enforce was the COVENANT of God. That is the LAW of God. The Commandment.

God said OBEY my voice and I will be your God and you will be my people.

, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God

Jesus don't ask for tribute.. You can't pay for his sacrifices. Your Salvation doesn't rely on how much Money a person gives. It's got to do with love..
______'

Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.

"The Jews paid Tribute."!!!!!!

YOU DON'T SAY!!!!
Michelle Her Junk(mhj)!
SO!!!!
You claim NO(!!!) money plates were passed
Now we have the anti/acu/mhj WBGC conspiracy.
None of them were around "6000" years ago.
None of them have a phd.
None of them "know" anything.
As my great uncle used to say: God save me from KNOWING PEOPLE!

Heps. I thought it was self-explanatory. (Jesus told Peter 3 times to do what). How many CATHOLICS CHRISTIAN RELIGION PAGAN CLERGY are millionaires by selling a religion not the GOSPEL on FALSE narrative.

Matthew 21:13 ►

"It is written," he said to them, "'My house will be called a house of prayer,' but you are making it �a den of robbers

Of course not! Money printing plates are very modern technology, I am sure anti/acu will be along to explain shortly! Money at that time was "struck" or "cast" coinage. Barter was much more the coin of the realm back then
