the minister is also a professor and the guys are brothers. they did a study of paintings of the "last supper" done over the last 1000 years. to my frustration, this is a large swath of time and they don't break it down into different eras, like the advent of safe canning, the industrial revolution, the assembly line, modern health codes for food safety (thank you, upton sinclair), mr birdseye and his flash-freezing, the post ww II pesticide era of farming, which dramatically increased agricultural yields, or our modern era of biggie fries and all-u-can-eat buffets.
but anyway...
using special enhancement software, they found that, over the past 1,000 years, the size of the main meal has progressively grown 69 percent; plate size has increased 66 percent and bread size by about 23 percent.
so, if, instead of a few sheets of dry matzoh, he'd had unlimited breadsticks and mountains of butter, would jesus have been too fat to walk on water? cuz he is always krazee skinny in all pix. with his not so secret flings with whores like mary magdalene, and the whole water into wine thing, i never took jesus as an ascetic.
would jesus super-size?
