6:1 After these things, Jesus went away to the area beyond-that of the sea of Galilee, to 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 the signs from him which he was doing upon those 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, having lifted up his eyes and having seen 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 said 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.


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 among so-many?

6:10 But Jesus said, Make** the people lean-back. Now much grass was in the place. Therefore the men reclined, approximately five thousand in number.

6:11 Now Jesus took the loaves, and having given-thanks, he distributed it to the disciples and then to the disciples who had reclined; 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 those who had 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, having known that they are about to come and seize him, in order that they might make* him king, 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 having stepped into the ship and they were going beyond-that area 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 aroused by a great blowing wind.

6:19 Therefore, having 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 going. {Joh 6:22-71 Synagogue in Capernaum; no parallel.}

6:22 On the next-day the crowd which is standing beyond-that area of the sea, saw that no other small-boat was there, except this one in which his disciples had stepped into, and that Jesus did not enter together with his disciples into the small-boat, but his disciples alone

6:23 (but other small-boats came from Tiberias near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord gave-thanks).

6:24 Therefore, when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they themselves also stepped into the ships and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

6:25 And having found him beyond-that area 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 in the one whom that one 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. He who is coming to me may never* hunger and he who believes in me may never* be thirsty at anytime.

6:36 But I said to you*, That you* have seen me and yet do not believe.

6:37 All that the Father gives me will be coming to me, and the one who is coming to me I may never* cast outside.

6:38 Because I have descended down from heaven, not in order that I should do my own will, but do the will of the one who sent me.

6:39 But this is the will of my Father who sent me, that* of all that 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? How does he now say, 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 does 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*, He who believes in 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 the synagogue, while teaching in Capernaum.

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


6:61 But Jesus knowing in himself that his disciples murmured 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 who is giving-life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that 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 one who will be giving him up.

6:65 And he said, 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* will not also be going away, will 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 He 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* he was about to give him up to the Jews.
{Mar 7:1-23 & Mat 15:1-20 & Joh 7:1 Galilee, probably Capernaum Spring 29 AD.}
