Here's the notes from Sunday's service: (Thanks, Jean)
Dr. Barclay – Something to Think About
Feeding of the Multitude
Matthew 14:13-21
Matthew 15:32-38
In Matthew 14:13-21 talks of 12 baskets. 12 baskets can be seen as representative of the 12 tribes of Israel and 12 disciples.
In Matthew 15:32-38 talks of 7 baskets. 7 baskets can be seen as representative of God’s perfect number of completion.
In both of these chapters we learn there was always plenty of food left over. The Gospel is for the Jews first and then to the Gentiles. Gentiles can be seen as receiving the leftovers. The salvation that Christ gives is more than enough for everyone. The gift of salvation is for everyone on the planet and leaves no one out. Just like Christ feeding the multitude and there was more than enough food for everyone, Christ gift of salvation extends to everyone and is more than we will ever need.
