9:18-19,23-26 Feeds crowd of five thousand In one of the most spectacular miracles, Jesus feeds a massive crowd of 5,000 people with just five loaves of bread and two small fish. And there is enough food left over at the end to fill 12 baskets! Matthew 14:15-21 Walks on the lake and stills the storm Jesus is seen walking on the surface of the Sea of Galilee!

Heals woman of her illness Curses the fig tree and it withers Jesus performs this miracle to demonstrate the coming judgement upon the nation of Israel, which because of its refusal (as a majority) to accept his message will soon wither into near oblivion under the brutal military might of the Roman empire. This takes place on the Monday following his triumphant entry into Jerusalem, just days before he will face his death and resurrection. Matthew 21:18-20 Jesus is himself resurrected from the dead In the greatest miracle of all, Jesus is raised from the dead, just as he had foretold on numerous occassions. Matthew 28:2-20 See additional material about the resurrection The final miraculous catch of fish After his resurrection, Jesus performs one more miracle. His disciples immediately identify who is responsible for this sudden abundance of fish stocks in the Sea of Galilee. It is the resurrected Jesus of Nazareth.
