4. 6:22-71 The next day the crowd that was standing on the other side of the sea saw that the other boat had gone and only one was left. They knew that Jesus did not go in the boat but that his disciples had gone away on their own. (Then) other boats from Tiberias arrived near the place where they had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks. So, when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there they (also) embarked in the boats and came to Capernaum looking for Jesus. On finding him to be on the other side of the sea they said to him "Rabbi how is it that you have come here?" Jesus answered them and said "Truly, truly I say to you, you are looking for me not because you saw signs but because you ate of the loaves and were satisfied (with them). Do not work for food that perishes but (rather) for the food that remains into eternal life. This is what the Son of man will give you. For on this one has God the Father set his seal (of approval)." They therefore said to him "What may we do so that we do the works of God?" Jesus answered and said to them "This is the work of that, that you believe in who has sent that one." 15. 11:38-52 Jesus therefore again groaned within himself. He came to the tomb. Now this was a cave and there was a stone lying on it. Jesus said "Lift up the stone." Martha, the sister of the one who had died said "Lord by now he would smell for it is the fourth day." Jesus says to her "I told you that if you believe you will see the glory of God. Have I not told you that if you believe you will see the glory of God?" They therefore said to him " What sign will you work so that we may see and believe you? What will you work? Our fathers ate manna in the desert just as it was written "He gave them bread from heaven to eat." Jesus therefore said to them "Truly truly I tell you it was not Moses who gave you bread from heaven. It was my Father (who did so and) who (also) gives true bread out of heaven. The bread of God is the one who comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world." They therefore said to him "Lord give us this bread all the time." Jesus said to them "I am the bread of life. Anyone who comes to me will not hunger. The one who believes They therefore lifted the stone. "Jesus lifted his eyes up to and said "Father I thank you that you have heard me. I know that you always hear me. But because of the crowd I have said this that they may believe that you have sent me." in me will never be thirsty. But I I have told you both that you have seen me (who I am) and yet you do not believe. All that the Father gives to me will come (about) and the one who comes to me will by no means be cast outside. I have come down from heaven not to do my will but the will of the one who has sent me. And, this is the will of the one who has sent me, that I should not lose any of what he has given me, but rather I should raise it up in the last day. For, it is the will of my Father that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him may have eternal life and I will raise him up in the last day. And so after saying these things he cried out with a great voice "Lazarus, come out." And, the one who had died and had been bound hands and feet with bandages and who had his face bound round with a napkin came out. The Jews murmured about him (Jesus) because he said "I am the bread who has come down out of heaven." They said "Is this man not Jesus the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it that he now says "I have come down out of heaven." Jesus answered them and said "Do not murmur with one another." Jesus said "Loosen him and let him go." After this many of the Jews who had come to Mary and who had seen what he did believed in him (Jesus); But some of them went away to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done. Nobody can come to me unless my Father who sent me should draw (attract) him. And, I will raise him up in the last day. It has been written in the prophets "They shall all be taught about God. Everyone who hears from the Father and learns will come to me." It is not that anyone has seen the Father except for the one who has come from God. He has seen the Father. Truly truly I say to you that the one who believes has eternal life. I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate manna in the desert and died. This is the bread from out of heaven which has come down so that anyone who eats of it may not die. I am the living bread who has come down, from out of heaven. If anyone eats of this bread he will live for ever. Indeed the bread which I will give is my flesh for the life of the world." The chief priests and the Pharisees therefore assembled a council and said "What are we doing (about this), because this man is working so many signs? If we leave him to go on with this everyone will believe in him. (Then) the Romans will come and take from us both our place and the nation." The Jews therefore argued with one another about this saying "How can this man give us his flesh to eat?" Jesus therefore said to them "Truly truly I say to you, unless you eat of the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood you do not have life within yourself. The one who eats of my flesh and drinks of my blood has eternal life and I will raise him up in the last day. For my flesh is truly food and my blood is truly drink. The one who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. As the living Father has sent me so I live because of the Father. Also the one who eats me will live, even that one, because of me. This is the bread from heaven which has come down, not like the fathers who ate (c/f in the desert) and died. (Rather) the one who eats this bread will live unto the age. "These things he said while teaching in asynagogue in Capernaum. Many of the disciples on hearing this said "This is a hard (type of) word. How can one hear (and accept) it?" But a certain one amongst them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year said to them. "You do not know anything. Nor do you understand that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people rather than that the whole nation should perish." But Jesus, on knowing within himself that his disciples were murmuring about this said to them "Does this offend you? What then if you saw the Son of man ascending back up to where he was before? It is the spirit who gives life. The flesh is of no avail. The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life. But there are some of you who do not believe." Jesus in fact knew from the beginning who those people were who did not believe and who the one was who was betraying him. He said "I have told you that nobody can come to me unless it has been given to him (that is, the attraction to do so) from the Father." From his saying this, many of his disciples went away and no longer walked with him. Jesus therefore said to the twelve. "Do you not wish to go as well?" Simon Peter answered him "Lord to whom will we go? You have the words of eternal life. We have believed and have known that you are the holy one of God." Jesus answered them "Did I not choose twelve of you. Yet one of you is a devil." Now he spoke of Judas the son of Simon Iscariot for it was this one, who was one of the twelve, who was about to betray him But (in saying this) he did not realise that he was actually making a prophecy as high priest for that year. He prophesied that Jesus was about to die for the nation, and indeed not only for the nation but for all the scattered children of God so that he (Jesus) might gather them into one.
