Superman Vs. The Supper Man

 

Jesus, Lord over the last supper, also fed many thousands, miraculously, more than once (Matthew 16:9-10).

Superman couldn't even do that.

Jesus is the real Superman. But, truly, he's the Supper Man.

I wonder if any 'soup kitchens' have this bit of scripture, say, on a plaque inside their facility? Seems like a good reminder and guide to me for such endeavors.

 

The Gospel of Matthew, chapter 14, verses 16-21 says:

 

"Jesus replied, 'They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.' 'We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,' they answered. 'Bring them here to me,' he said. And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children."

(Matthew 14:16-21)
