“There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?”
'Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?' — Andrew locates a resource (five loaves, two fish—barley being poor man's bread) but expresses doubt (ti...para tousois pollois; what are these among so many?). The five-and-two specificity grounds the narrative in particularity.
