“When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he saith unto Philip, Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?”
When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, 'Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?' — the question addressed to Philip (one of the Twelve) tests faith and understanding. The phrasing (hopou agorasomen artous) asks where to procure bread, implicitly assuming earthly supply.
