As creatures of a combined spirit, and body, we need to tend to the needs of both, and Jesus wasn’t negligent of that fact. When He taught He fed the spiritual side of those who had gathered about Him, and when they were physically Exhausted, and hungry, he fed their bodies. A good example was on the day He performed the miracle of the loaves and fishes. He kept a balance in His teaching, and in His own life as well... praying, eating, drinking, washing, and bathing; each in its own perfect measure.
