Last Sunday we had the beautiful passage in which Jesus feeds the 5000 (not counting women and children!). I am struck that Matthew is not primarily interested in the miracle but in the parallel to the manna in the desert when God fed the people in their wandering. In a place of death, the God of life is revealed in the abundance of the gift.
Here is a beautiful setting of a portion of the responsorial Psalm by Jean Berger.
