Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - John 6:61-65

John 6:61-65. When Jesus knew Greek, ειδως δε ο Ιησους εν εαυτω , Jesus knowing in himself; that his disciples murmured at it Though they did not speak out their objections and scruples; said, Doth this, which you have just now heard, offend you And do you stumble at it as incredible? What if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up Αναβαινοντα , ascending; where he was before? How much more incredible will it then appear to you, that he should give you his flesh to eat? Or, will not... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - John 6:60-71

68. Words of eternal life (John 6:60-71)Many of the people who followed Jesus found his teaching about the bread of life hard to understand. Jesus told them that if they had difficulty believing this, they would be positively amazed when they saw him going bodily back to heaven. Their difficulties arose because they were thinking only of physical flesh and blood, and failed to see the spiritual truths they illustrated. They still did not understand how eternal life could result from Jesus’... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - John 6:65

And he said, For this cause have I said unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it be given him of the Father.See under John 6:44-45 for comment on how God draws men, and how he gives men power to come to Christ. The Lord's evident purpose here was to encourage the faithful disciples. The defection of many, the unbelief of some, and the treachery of one - all of these were events which were due to the fact of their rejecting God's word by which they would have been drawn to Jesus, and... read more

John 6:65. Therefore said I unto you— "Because I knew that there were false-hearted pretenders among you, therefore, for your conviction and caution, and for distinguishingreal from nominal believers, I told you before (John 6:44.) that no man can savinglybelieve in me, unless my Father draw him by his Spirit, and thereby give him grace and strength to come to me. But God commences and continues this divine drawing in every heart of man, till his influences be so resisted as to oblige him to... read more

65. Therefore said I, &c.—that is, "That was why I spoke to you of the necessity of divine teaching which some of you are strangers to." except it were given him—plainly showing that by the Father's "drawing" (John 6:44) was meant an internal and efficacious operation, for in recalling the statement here He says, it must be "given to a man to come" to Christ. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - John 6:65

Again Jesus expressed His belief that the human decision to believe or not believe rested ultimately in God’s elective purpose (John 6:37; John 6:44). Thus He did not view the unbelief of His disciples as an indication that He had failed. Notwithstanding, He did not present the importance of belief on Himself as something His hearers could take or leave either. It meant the difference between life and death to them, and He urged them to believe. read more

The Bread of LifeJohn 6:1 to John 7:1. Feeding the five thousand. Walking upon the sea. Discourse upon the bread of life. Defection of many disciples. The Apostles stand firm.Returning from Jerusalem, our Lord met the Apostles somewhere on the W. of the lake (perhaps at Capernaum), and heard their report of their mission (Luke 9:10). He then spent about a fortnight preaching and healing the sick (John 6:2), and afterwards, seeking retirement, sailed with them to a desert place on the NE. coast... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - John 6:65

(65) No man can come unto me.—Unless the fields had been prepared it was in vain to sow the seed. No effort on the sower’s part could make them receptive. The fact that they believed not, declared that their hearts were not prepared, but did not affect the goodness of the seed. This defection did not surprise Him. He had already used words which anticipated it. (Comp. Note on John 6:37; John 6:44.)It will be observed that this verse follows in the teaching of Christ immediately on the first... read more
