James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - John 6:70-71

THE DOWNFALL OF JUDAS‘Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil? He spake of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon.’ John 6:70-Sirach : Who was Judas? He was one of the Twelve chosen to be with the Lord during His life on earth. When the twelve were sent out by two and two to preach, Judas went also. To Judas, as to the others, Christ gave the power against unclean spirits and to heal all manner of disease. He was one of that privileged band who followed our Blessed Lord, who... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 6:26-59

The Bread of Life, Eating His Flesh And Drinking His Blood (John 6:26-59 ). The narrative that follows must be carefully divided up if it is to be properly understood. There are in fact three clearly differentiated phases: · The first is to do with the crowd who have come seeking Him (John 6:26-40). In this there is only reference to partaking of the bread of life by coming to Him and believing on Him. The ideas that He promulgates are purely based on the parabolic idea of spiritual bread. ·... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 6:41-50

The Life-Giving Bread Is For Those Drawn by the Father And He Will Give His Flesh For The Life Of The World (John 6:41-50 ). At this point there would appear to be an important change in the narrative. Up to this point it had been ‘the people’ who have been questioning Him. Now the scene moves on. “ The people” fade into the background and He finds Himself dealing with “the Judaisers”. This is John’s term regularly used for the Jewish authoritarians, and especially for a hard core of them who... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 6:47-50

“In very truth I tell you, he who believes has eternal life. I am the bread of life. Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and they died. This is the bread which comes down from Heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die.” The Pharisees believed that by reading and assiduously obeying the Law of Moses they would find eternal life by being established in the covenant. Jesus informed them that eternal life was rather to be found now by believing in Him. It was response to Him that would... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 6:51

“I am the living bread which came down from Heaven. If any man eats of this bread he will live for ever. Yes, and the bread which I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.” In contrast to the ‘manna from Heaven’, Jesus points out that He is ‘the living bread which came down from Heaven’, heavenly food that gives life. Indeed if anyone eats of this bread (by coming to Him and believing on Him - John 6:35) he will live for ever. Thus the ‘eternal life’ is not only a... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 6:51-59

Except You Eat the Flesh of the Son of Man and Drink His Blood (John 6:51-59 ). We are now gliding into the third phase of His teaching where He is teaching in the Synagogue, although the point at which the break comes is not fully apparent. Now He knows that He is talking to those who are seeking His life, and His message therefore alters to take that fact into account. This explains the change in emphasis. From now on He has His coming death in view. read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 6:52

‘The Judaisers thus strove the one with the other, saying, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?” ’ The Judaisers professed to be puzzled at His statement that the bread that they were being told to eat was His flesh which He would give for the life of the world, and they discussed it among themselves. ‘How can this man give us His flesh to eat?’ Regularly in John’s Gospel questions are asked so that the illuminating answer can be given. read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 6:53

‘Jesus therefore said to them, “In very truth I tell you, unless you do eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood you do not have life in yourselves. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day”.’ Jesus now made plain that what was in mind was His death, and that all who would be saved must benefit through that death. As mentioned above His words are full of irony. You do not know it, He is saying, but in plotting to kill Me you... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 6:55-56

‘For my flesh is food indeed and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me and I in him’. Here He was again emphasising the importance of His death, for without it there was nothing on offer. Only the giving of His flesh could provide food for men’s souls. Only the drinking of His blood through benefiting in His death could provide salvation. But through it what men can receive is better far than they can ever be aware of. And those who consciously ‘die... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 6:57

“As the living Father has sent me and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me.” Here He was not only thinking of the fact that His human life had been given to Him, and was sustained, by ‘the living Father’, the very Fountain of Life Himself, but that His resurrection would also be the Father’s work. Both His present and future life would be sustained by ‘the living Father’ Who sent Him. He had ‘life’, and would continue to have life, ‘because of the Father’. In... read more
