“And they did eat, and were all filled: and there was taken up of fragments that remained to them twelve baskets.”
They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over — all ate and were satisfied: the abundance is complete. Twelve basketfuls left over: the surplus exceeds the original supply. The kingdom's provision is not minimal subsistence but abundant excess — twelve baskets for twelve disciples, or twelve tribes, or both.
