William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - John 6:41-51

6:41-51a So the Jews kept murmuring about him, because he said: "I am the bread which came down from heaven." They kept saying: "Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say: 'I have come down from heaven'?" Jesus answered: "Stop murmuring to each other. No one can come to me except the Father who sent me draws him; and I will raise him up on the last day. It stands written in the prophets: 'And all will be taught by God.' Everyone who has listened... read more

6:51b-59 "The bread which I will give him is my flesh, which is given that the world may have life." So the Jews argued with each other. "How" they said, "can this man give us his flesh to eat?" Jesus said to them: "This is the truth I tell you--unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you cannot possess eternal life within yourselves. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day. My flesh is the real food and my... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - John 6:51

Let us see now if we can find out something of what Jesus meant and of what John understood from words like this. There are two ways in which we may take this passage. (i) We may take it in a quite general sense. Jesus spoke about eating his flesh and drinking his blood. Now the flesh of Jesus was his complete humanity. John in his First Letter lays it down almost passionately: "Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God; and every spirit which does not... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - John 6:59-65

6:59-65 When they had heard this discourse many of his disciples said: "This word is hard! Who is able to listen to it?" Jesus well knew within himself that his disciples were murmuring about this; so he said to them: "Does this cause you to stumble? What then if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he formerly was? The life-giving power is the Spirit; the flesh is of no help. The words which I have spoken to you are spirit and life. But there are some who do not believe." For... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 6:51

I am the living bread which came down from heaven ,.... This is the same with what is said in John 6:33 , which is true of Christ, as he has life in him; and is the author and giver of life to others; and is of an heavenly original, and came from heaven to give life to men: and such is the virtue of this living and heavenly bread, that if any man eat of this bread he shall live for ever ; not a natural, but a spiritual life; a life of sanctification, which is begun here, and will be... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 6:52

The Jews therefore strove among themselves ,.... Fell to cavilling and disputing one among another; some understanding Christ, and others not; some being for him, and vindicated what he said; and others being against him, and who were the majority, objected, saying how can this man give us his flesh to eat ? which is to be understood, not physically, but as morally impossible and unlawful; since, with the Jews, it was not lawful to eat the flesh of any creature alive, and much less the... read more

Then Jesus said unto them ,.... The Jews, who were litigating this point among themselves: verily, verily, I say unto you ; or you may assure yourselves of the truth of what follows, except ye eat the flesh of the son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you : by "the son of man", Christ means himself; under which title he often speaks of himself; because it was a title of the Messiah under the Old Testament; and was expressive of the truth of his human nature, though as... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 6:54

Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood ,.... Spiritually by faith, as explained in the preceding verse: hath eternal life ; the principle of spiritual life, which is evidently implanted in him, as appears from his eating and drinking; and is a durable and lasting principle: grace is an incorruptible seed; every part of it is abiding and permanent; and it is itself the beginning, pledge, and earnest of everlasting life, and is inseparably connected with it: moreover, such have... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 6:55

For my flesh is meat indeed ,.... Not in a corporeal, but in a spiritual sense; and the same is said of his blood: and my blood is drink indeed , &c.; that is, they are both "truly" meat and drink, as the Vulgate Latin, Syriac, and Ethiopic versions render it; or are "true" meat and drink, as the Arabic version: in opposition to what was typical meat and drink; as the manna in the wilderness, the water out of the rock, the flesh and wine at the passover, the meat and drink offerings... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 6:56

He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood ,.... In the sense above given; See Gill on John 6:53 ; dwelleth in me, and I in him . There is a mutual indwelling of Christ, and believers; Christ is the habitation, or dwelling place of his people: there is a secret dwelling in Christ; so the elect of God dwelt in the heart, and in the hands, and arms of Christ from everlasting; and as members in their head in election grace; and representatively in him, as the Mediator of the covenant;... read more
