Yochanan 6:58

58 This is the lechem out of Shomayim having come down, not as the Avot ate and died; the one feeding on this lechem will live l’olam v’ed.

Yochanan 6:58 Meaning and Commentary

John 6:58

This is that bread which came down from heaven
That true bread, the bread of God, the bread of life, living bread; meaning himself, as in ( John 6:32 John 6:33 John 6:35 John 6:48 John 6:50 John 6:51 ) ;

not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead:
this is bread of a quite different nature from that; that was only typical bread, this true; that was the bread of angels, but this is the bread of God; that came but from the air, this from the third heaven; that men ate of, and died; but whoever eats of this, lives for ever; see ( John 6:49 ) ; as follows:

he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever;
(See Gill on John 6:51).

Yochanan 6:58 In-Context

56 The one feeding on my basar and drinking dahmi abides in, [YESHAYAH 53:7; SHEMOT 12:3] dwells in me and I in him [Ex 12:22].

57 As HaAv HaChai sent me and I live because of HaAv, so also whoever is feeding on me even that one will live because of me.

58 This is the lechem out of Shomayim having come down, not as the Avot ate and died; the one feeding on this lechem will live l’olam v’ed.

59 These things he said in a shul while teaching in K’far-Nachum.

60 Therefore, many of Moshiach’s talmidim, having heard, said, Hard is this dvar Torah. Who is able to hear it? [YESHAYAH 53:1]
