A man came from Baal- shalishad bringing bread and wheat to the man of God. These were from the first part of the harvest, twenty loaves of barley and wheat. Elisha told him, ” Give the loaves to this man that may eat.”
His servant said to him, ” How am I to divide these loaves among one hundred men?” Elisha insisted, ” Give them to the men that they may eat. for Yahweh says: They shall eat and have some leftover.” So the man set it before them; and they ate and had some left, as Yahweh had said.
