[John 6]

 

             {Mar 6:30-32 & Mat 14:13 & Luk 9:10 & Joh 6:1 East shore of Galilee.}

             ^6:1 After these things, Jesus went away on the other-side of the sea of Galilee, (that is the sea of Tiberias).

 

             {Mar 6:33-44 & Mat 14:13-21 & Luk 9:11-17 & Joh 6:2-14.}

             ^6:2 And a large crowd was following him, because they were seeing his signs, which he was doing^* upon the ones who were sick.

             ^6:3 Now Jesus went up into the mountain and was sitting there with his disciples. ^6:4 Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near. ^6:5 Therefore, Jesus lifted up his eyes and saw that a large crowd is coming toward him, says to Philip, From where will we be buying bread in-order-that these might eat? ^6:6 But he was saying this, testing him; for^* he himself knew what he was about to do^*.

             ^6:7 Philip answered him, Two hundred denarii worth of loaves is not enough for them in-order-that each of them might take some bit of it. {i.e., not enough to go around.}

             ^6:8 One out-of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, says to him, ^6:9 There is one child here, who has five barley loaves and two little-fish, but what are these things toward so-many?

             ^6:10 But Jesus said, Make^*° the men to lean-back. Now much grass was in the place. Therefore, the men leaned-back, approximately five thousand in number. ^6:11 Now Jesus took the loaves, and gave-thanks and he distributed it to the disciples and the disciples to the ones reclining; also likewise from the little-fish as many as they were wishing to eat. ^6:12 Now as they were getting filled, he says to his disciples, Gather^° up the broken pieces which were leftover, in-order-that not anything might perish. ^6:13 Therefore, they gathered together and filled twelve baskets from the broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which were leftover by the ones who have been fed.

             ^6:14 Therefore, after the men saw the sign which Jesus did^*, they were saying, This truly is the prophet who is coming into the world.

 

             {Mar 6:45-56 & Mat 14:22-36 & Joh 6:15-21.}

             ^6:15 Therefore, Jesus knew that they are about to come and seize him in-order-that they might make^* him king, but he departed by himself into the mountain alone.

 

             ^6:16 Now as it became evening, his disciples went-down upon the sea coast; ^6:17 and they stepped into the ship, and were going on the other-side of the sea to Capernaum. And it had already become dark and Jesus had not yet come to them. ^6:18 And the sea was being awakened by a great blowing wind. ^6:19 Therefore, when they have rowed approximately twenty-five or thirty furlongs, they view Jesus walking upon the sea and happening to be near the ship and they were afraid. ^6:20 But he says to them, I am here. Do^° not be afraid. ^6:21 Therefore, they were willing to receive him onto the ship and immediately the ship happened to be upon the land in which they were proceeding-away.

 

             {Joh 6:22-71 Synagogue in Capernaum; no parallel.}

             ^6:22 On the next-day the crowd, the one standing on the other-side of the sea, saw that no other small-boat was there, except this one in which his disciples stepped into, and that Jesus did not enter together-with his disciples into the small-boat. But his disciples went away alone ^6:23 (but other small-boats came from Tiberias near the place where they ate the bread after the Lord gave-thanks). ^6:24 Therefore, when the crowd saw that Jesus is not there, nor his disciples, they themselves also stepped into the ships and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. ^6:25 And after they found him on the other-side of the sea, they said to him, Rabbi, when did you come^* here?

             ^6:26 Jesus answered them and said, Assuredly, assuredly, I say to you^°, You^° are seeking me, not because you^° saw signs, but because you^° ate from the loaves and were fully-fed. ^6:27 Do^° not work for the food which perishes, but for the food which remains to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will be giving to you^°; for^* God, the Father, sealed this one.

             ^6:28 Therefore, they said to him, What should we do^* in-order-that we may work the works of God?

             ^6:29 Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, in-order-that you^° might believe into that man whom he sent.

             ^6:30 Therefore, they said to him, Therefore, what are you doing^* for a sign in-order-that we may see it and should believe in you? What are you working for us? ^6:31 Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it has been written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat. {Exo 16:21, Num 11:8}

             ^6:32 Therefore, Jesus said to them, Assuredly, assuredly, I am saying to you^°, Moses has not given the bread from heaven to you^°, but my Father is the one giving the true^* bread from heaven to you^°. ^6:33 For^* the bread of God is he who is descending from heaven and is giving life to the world.

             ^6:34 Therefore, they said to him, Lord, give this bread to us always.

             ^6:35 But Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life. The one coming to me should never hunger and the one believing into me should never be thirsty at anytime. ^6:36 But I said to you^°, You^° have seen me and are not believing this. ^6:37 All which the Father gives me will be coming to me, and the one who is coming to me I should never cast outside. ^6:38 Because I have descended from heaven, not in-order-that I should do^* my will, but do the will of the one who sent me. ^6:39 But this is the will of my Father who sent me, in-order-that everything which he has given me, I should not lose any out-of it, but will raise^* it up in the last day. ^6:40 But this is the will of the one who sent me, in-order-that everyone who views the Son and believes in him, may have everlasting life, and I will raise^* him up in the last day.

 

             ^6:41 Therefore, the Jews were murmuring concerning him, because he said, I am the bread who descended from heaven. ^6:42 And they were saying, Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? Therefore, how is he saying this, I descended from heaven?

             ^6:43 Therefore, Jesus answered and said to them, Do^° not murmur with one another. ^6:44 No one is able to come to me, if the Father who sent me should not attract him and I will raise^* him up in the last day. ^6:45 It has been written in the prophets, ‘And they will all be taught from God.’ {Isa 54:13} Therefore, everyone who hears from the Father and has learned is coming to me. ^6:46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except he who is from God, this one has seen the Father. ^6:47 Assuredly, assuredly, I am saying to you^°, The one believing into me has everlasting life. ^6:48 I am the bread of life. ^6:49 Your^° fathers ate the manna in the wilderness and they died. ^6:50 This is the bread who is descending from heaven in-order-that anyone may eat from it and may not die. ^6:51 I am the living bread who descended from heaven; if anyone eats from this bread, he will be living forever, and also the bread which I will be giving is my flesh, which I will be giving on behalf of the life of the world.

             ^6:52 Therefore, the Jews were quarreling with one another, saying, How is this one able to give us his flesh to eat?

             ^6:53 Therefore, Jesus said to them, Assuredly, assuredly, I am saying to you^°, If you^° do not eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you^° do not have life in yourselves. ^6:54 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has everlasting life and I will raise^* him up in the last day. ^6:55 For^* my flesh is truly food and my blood is truly drink. ^6:56 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me and I in him. ^6:57 Just-as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father; so he who eats me, he will also be living because of me. ^6:58 This is the bread who descended from heaven not like the manna your^° fathers ate and died; he who is eating this bread will be living forever. ^6:59 He said these things in a synagogue, while teaching in Capernaum.

             ^6:60 Therefore, many out-of his disciples heard this, and said, This is a harsh speech; who is able to hear it?

             ^6:61 But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples are murmuring concerning this, said to them, Is this offending you^°? ^6:62 Therefore, what if you^° view the Son of Man ascending where he was beforehand? ^6:63 It is the spirit making^* him alive; the flesh profits nothing. The words which I speak to you^° are spirit and are life. ^6:64 But there are some out-of you^° who do not believe. For^* Jesus knew from the beginning who they are who do not believe and who is the one who will be giving him up. ^6:65 And he was saying, Because of this, I have said to you^°, that no one is able to come to me, if it is not given to him from my Father.

 

             ^6:66 Many of his disciples went away from this speech to things left behind and were walking no more with him. ^6:67 Therefore, Jesus said to the twelve, You^° are not wishing to proceed-away also, are you^°?

             ^6:68 Therefore, Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom will we go? You have the words of everlasting life. ^6:69 And we have believed and have known that you are the Christ the Son of the living God.

             ^6:70 Jesus answered them, Did I not choose you^°, the twelve, and one out-of you^° is a slanderer? ^6:71 Now he was speaking of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, being one out-of the twelve, for^* this one was about to give him up to the Jews.
