The [[multiplication of the loaves]] -- the only [[miracle]] described in all four [[Gospels]], which suggests it happened more than once -- was always done with a prime number of loaves and fish (5 loaves and 2 fish for the incidents described in {{bibleref|Mark|6|31-44}}, {{bibleref|Matthew|14|19}}, {{bibleref|Luke|9|13}}, and {{bibleref|John|6|9}}).

There are infinitely many primes, while the only [[even]] prime number is 2. The [[Bible]] includes many references, direct and indirect, to prime numbers.
