John 6:52

As Jesus’ hearers had objected to what He had said about His identity (John 6:41-42), so they now expressed confusion about what He meant by eating flesh. An intense argument (Gr. emachonto) erupted among them. They were struggling to understand His meaning. In what sense would Jesus give His flesh as food? [Note: See Paul M. Hoskins, "Deliverance from Death by the True Passover Lamb: A Significant Aspect of the Fulfillment of the Passover in the Gospel of John," Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society 52:2 (June 2009):285-99.]
