Why is it significant that Jesus was alone with His disciples when performing miracles?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus' time alone with His disciples illustrates His desire to teach and strengthen their faith.

The setting of Jesus performing miracles often in the presence of His disciples underscores His intention to train them for their future ministry. In John 6, when He is alone with them before feeding the multitude, His questions and actions serve as a test of their faith and obedience. This intimate environment allows Jesus to reveal His divinity and the depth of His grace, transforming their understanding of resource limitations into an awareness of His limitless power. It emphasizes the importance of discipleship; by guiding them through challenges, He equips them to face their own moments of need with faith, ensuring they learn to rely on Him for all things.
