Matthew 14
This chapter opens with the tragic execution of John the Baptist by Herod Antipas, who was pressured by Herodias's daughter. When Jesus hears the news, He retreats to a solitary place. Crowds follow Him, and Jesus miraculously feeds five thousand men (plus women and children) using only five loaves and two fish, with twelve baskets of leftovers. Later, during a storm, Jesus walks on water. Peter tries to join Him but sinks when his faith falters, leading the disciples to worship Jesus as the Son of God.
