Here is a related question but they are not the same https://christianity.stackexchange.com/questions/6702/do-miracles-violate-the-laws-of-physics Looking at most miracles in the bible, they can be explained based on what we already understand (physics, chemistry, etc) and sometimes they were even explained in the bible. Like in the case of God parting the red sea, the east/west wind had to be strong to drive the water apart and made the children of God passed. There are others like that. But there are 2 miracles that are difficult for me to explain. - The Shunamite widow pouring out oil from nowhere (2 Kings 4) - Here is an analyses have read but not satisfied: http://www.jba.gr/Articles/nkjv_jbajuly97.htm - Jesus feeding 4000/5000 from food that did not exist I know God is omnipotent and can do all things, ***but in the case of the Red Sea, we learned how He did it.*** My question is, when Jesus had 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish, how does breaking them increase them till they could feed 5000 people (I know it's a miracle) I am even more concerned about the Shunamite woman. Having a jar of oil, and pouring into several jars and could have continue if there were more to fill. How did the oil keep pouring when there was a finite amount inside (diluted with water - I don't think so)
