John 6

The Feeding of the Five Thousand
Mt 14:13–21; Mk 6:30–44; Lk 9:10–17
1After these things Jesus went across the Sea of Galilee, # Mt 4:18 which is the Sea of Tiberias. 2And a great crowd followed Him, because they saw His signs which He did for the sick. 3Then Jesus went up on a mountain, # Lk 9:28; Jn 6:15 and He sat there with His disciples. 4Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near. # Jn 2:13; 5:1; 11:55
5When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming to Him, He said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread that these may eat?” 6He said this to test him, for He Himself knew what He would do.
7Philip answered Him, “Two hundred denarii # 6:7 Eight months’ wages. worth of bread is not sufficient for each of them to receive but a little.” # Mk 6:37
8One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him, 9“There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two small fish. But what are they among so many?”
10Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, numbering about five thousand. 11Jesus then took the loaves, and when He had given thanks, # Jn 6:23 He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were sitting down; and likewise, they distributed the fish, as much as they wanted.
12When they were filled, He told His disciples, “Collect the fragments that remain, that nothing may be lost.” 13So they collected them and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.
14When those men saw the sign which He had done, they then said, “This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world.” # Mt 11:3; 21:11 15Therefore, knowing that they would come and take Him by force to make Him king, Jesus departed again to a mountain by Himself alone. # Jn 7:3–4; 18:36
Jesus Walks on the Water
Mt 14:22–27; Mk 6:45–52
16Now when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea. 17They got into a boat and went across the sea toward Capernaum. # Mk 6:45 It was now dark, and Jesus had not come to them. 18The sea was stirred up, because a strong wind was blowing. 19So when they had rowed about three or four miles, # 6:19 Gk 25 to 30 stadia, or 5 or 6 kilometers. they saw Jesus walking on the sea # Job 9:8 and coming near the boat. And they were afraid. 20But He said to them, “It is I. Do not be afraid.” 21Then they gladly received Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.
Jesus the Bread of Life
22The following day the people who stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except the one which His disciples had entered, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with His disciples, but that His disciples had gone away alone. 23However, other boats came from Tiberias near the place where they ate bread when the Lord had given thanks. 24When the people therefore saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they also got into boats and came to Capernaum, # Jn 6:17 looking for Jesus.
25When they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “Rabbi, when did You come here?”
26Jesus answered them, “Truly, truly I say to you, you seek Me not because you saw signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled. # Jn 6:24 27Do not work for the food which perishes, # Isa 55:2 but for that food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. # Jn 6:54 For God the Father has set His seal on Him.”
28Then they asked Him, “What shall we do that we may work the works of God?”
29Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent.” # 1Jn 3:23
30Therefore they said to Him, “What sign do You show then, that we may see and believe You? What work will You perform? 31Our fathers ate manna in the desert. As it is written, ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’ # Ex 16:4; Ne 9:15; Ps 105:40 # 6:31 Ex 16:4, 15; Ne 9:15; Ps 78:24–25. ”
32Then Jesus said, “Truly, truly I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven. 33For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.” # Jn 6:50; 1Jn 1:1–2
34Then they said to Him, “Lord, give us this bread always.” # Jn 4:15
35Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to Me shall never hunger, and whoever believes in Me shall never thirst. # Mt 11:28; Jn 5:40 36But I told you that you have seen Me, # Jn 6:26 and yet do not believe. 37All whom the Father gives Me will come to Me, # Jn 6:39; 17:2, 24 and he who comes to Me I will never cast out. 38For I came down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. # Jn 4:34; 5:30 39This is the will of the Father who has sent Me, that of all whom He has given Me, I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. # Jn 6:44, 54 40This is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.” # Jn 6:54
41The Jews then murmured about Him, because He said, “I am the bread which came down from heaven.” # Jn 6:33, 51–52 42They said, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, # Lk 4:22 whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, ‘I have come down from heaven’?”
43Jesus therefore answered them, “Do not murmur among yourselves. 44No one can come to Me unless the Father who has sent Me draws him. # Jer 31:3; Jn 6:65; 12:32 And I will raise him up on the last day. 45It is written in the Prophets, ‘They shall all be taught by God.’ # Isa 54:13; Jer 31:33–34 # 6:45 Isa 54:13. Therefore everyone who has heard and has learned of the Father comes to Me. 46Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God. He has seen the Father. # Jn 1:18; 5:37; 7:29 47Truly, truly I say to you, whoever believes in Me has eternal life. # Jn 3:36; 5:24 48I am the bread of life. # Jn 6:51 49Your fathers ate manna in the wilderness, # Jn 6:31, 58 and they died. 50This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. # Jn 6:33, 51 51I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. The bread which I shall give for the life of the world is My flesh.” # Lk 22:19
52The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, # Jn 9:16; 10:19 saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?”
53Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly I say to you, # Jn 3:3 unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. 54Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life. And I will raise him up on the last day. # Jn 6:39–40 55For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. 56Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him. # Jn 15:4–5; 1Jn 3:24 57As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever feeds on Me also will live because of Me. # Jn 3:17; 5:26 58This is the bread which came down from heaven, # Jn 6:41 not as your fathers ate manna and died. He who eats this bread will live forever.” 59He said these things in the synagogue, as He taught in Capernaum. # Jn 6:24
The Words of Life
60When they heard this, many of His disciples said, “This is a hard saying. Who can listen to it?” # Jn 6:66
61Knowing in Himself that His disciples murmured about it, # Jn 2:24–25; 6:64 Jesus said to them, “Does this offend you? 62Then what if you see the Son of Man ascend to where He was before? # Mk 16:19; Jn 3:13 63It is the Spirit who gives life. The flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit and are life. # Jn 6:68; 1Co 15:45 64But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, # Jn 6:61 and who it was who would betray Him. 65Then He said, “For this reason I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it were given him by My Father.” # Jn 6:37, 44–45
66From that time many of His disciples went back and walked no more with Him. # Jn 6:60
67So Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?”
68Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. # Jn 6:63; Ac 5:20 69We have believed and have come to know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” # Mk 8:29; Lk 9:20
70Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you, the twelve, and yet one of you is a devil?” # Jn 13:2, 27 71He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. For it was he who would betray Him, being one of the twelve.
