The Companion Bible is popular among Christians who want to  understand God's Word in the trusted and familiar language of the King James Text. The Companion Bible is sometimes touted by proponents of the KJV as a free and compelling Study Bible that remains immune to the trends of modern Study Bibles and translations.

E.W. Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes

strove = were contending. Greek. machomai. Only here, Act 7:26 . <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=2ti+2:24">2 Timothy 2:24</a> .<a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=jas+4:2">James 4:2</a> . An advance on "murmuring" in <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:41">John 6:41</a> . among themselves = with (Greek. pros. App-104 .) one another.

Verse 52

eat . . . drink, &amp;c. The Hebrews used this ex pression with reference to knowledge by the Figure of speech Me tonomy (of the Subject), App-6 , as in <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=ex+24:11">Exodus 24:11</a> , where it is put for being alive; so eating and drinking denoted the operation of the mind in receiving and "inwardly digesting" truth or the words of God. See <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=de+8:3">Deuteronomy 8:3</a> , and p. <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=jer+15:16">Jeremiah 15:16</a> . <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=eze+2:8">Ezekiel 2:8</a> . No idiom was more common in the days of our Lord. With them as with us, eating included the meaning of enjoyment, as in <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=ec+5:19">Ecclesiastes 5:19</a> ; <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=ec+6:2">Ecclesiastes 6:2</a> ; for "riches "cannot be eaten; and the Talmud actually speaks of eating (i.e. enjoying) "the years of Messiah", and instead of finding any difficulty in the figure they said that the days of Hezekiah were so good that "Messiah will come no more to Israel; for they have already devoured Him in the days of Hezekiah" (Lightfoot, vol. xii, pp 296, 297). Even where eating is used of the devouring of enemies, it is the enjoyment of victory that is included. The Lord's words could be understood thus by hearers, for they knew the idiom; but of "the eucharist" they knew nothing, and could not have thus understood them. By comparing verses: <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:47-48">John 6:47-48</a> with verses: <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:53-54">John 6:53-54</a> , we see that believing on Christ was exactly the same thing as eating and drinking Him. flesh . . . blood. By the Figure of speech Synecdoche (of the Part), App-6 , this idiom is put for the whole Person. See note on "flesh", <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+1:13">John 1:13</a> , and compare <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=mt+16:17">Matthew 16:17</a> . <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=1co+15:50">1 Corinthians 15:50</a> . <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=ga+1:1">Galatians 1:1</a> , <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=ga+1:16">Galatians 1:16</a> . . <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=eph+6:12">Ephesians 6:12</a> .<a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=heb+2:14">Hebrews 2:14</a> . no = not. App-105 .

Verse 53

eateth = feedeth on (so as to enjoy). Greek. trogo, as in verses: <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:56">John 6:56</a> , <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:57-58">John 6:57-58</a> . Not the same word as in verses: <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:5">John 6:5</a> , <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:13">John 6:13</a> , <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:23">John 6:23</a> , <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+5:26">John 5:26</a> , <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+5:31">John 5:31</a> , Joh 5:49 , Joh 5:50 , Joh 5:53 , Joh 5:58 -. See the two words in <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:58">John 6:58</a> . eternal . Greek. aionios. App-151 .

Verse 54

indeed = truly. Greek. alethos. All the texts read alethes ( App-175 ) but not the Syriac.

Verse 55

dwelleth = abideth. Same as "endureth "in <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:27">John 6:27</a> . See note on "abode" in <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+1:32">John 1:32</a> .

Verse 56

As = According as. See <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+13:15">John 13:15</a> . 1Jn 2:6 ; <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=1jo+2:4">1 John 2:4</a> . live. See note on <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+4:50">John 4:50</a> . by = through. Greek. dia. App-104 .<a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:2">John 6:2</a> .

Verse 57

This , &amp;c. Compare <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:50">John 6:50</a> , and see on <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=mt+16:18">Matthew 16:18</a> . live for ever. This is the opposite of death (<a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:49">John 6:49</a> ), and is to be only by and through resurrection (verses: <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:39">John 6:39</a> , <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:40">John 6:40</a> , <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:44">John 6:44</a> ).

Verse 58

synagogue . See App-120 .

Verse 59

Many. Other than the twelve (<a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=joh+6:70">John 6:70</a> ). This is an hard saying . The emphasis is on "hard" by the Figure of speech Hyperbaton ( App-6 ). saying . Greek. logos. See note on <a target="_blank" href="/passage/?search=mr+9:32">Mark 9:32</a> .

Verse 60
