Yochanan 4:33

33 Therefore, Moshiach’s talmidim were saying to one another, Surely no one brought him anything to eat?

Yochanan 4:33 Meaning and Commentary

John 4:33

Therefore said the disciples one to another
Privately, among themselves, though in his hearing; at least he knew what they said by answer;

hath any man;
or anyone, any angel from heaven, or any of the inhabitants of the city, or any man or woman, or this woman they had found him talking with:

brought him [ought] to eat?
for they thought of nothing else but bodily food; just as when he cautioned them against the leaven of the Sadducees and Pharisees, they imagined he said it, because they had taken no bread; whereas he meant the doctrine of these persons: so dull of understanding spiritual things were the disciples themselves, that it is not so much to be wondered at that the Samaritan woman, whilst in her carnal state, when Christ spoke of living water, should understand him of material water, or spring water.

Yochanan 4:33 In-Context

31 Divaile (meanwhile), Moshiach’s talmidim were asking him, Rebbe, eat.

32 But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, I have okhel (food) to eat [IYOV 23:12] of which you have no da’as.

33 Therefore, Moshiach’s talmidim were saying to one another, Surely no one brought him anything to eat?

34 Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, My okhel (food) is that I may do the ratzon (will) of the One having sent me and may complete ma’aseh HaElohim [his work, KOHELET 11:5].

35 Do not say, Yet arba’ah chodashim (four months) and then comes the katzir (harvest). Hinei, I say to you, Lift up your eyes and see the sadot (fields) that they are white for the katzir (harvest).
