Johannes 6:4

Listen to Johannes 6:4

Johannes 6:4 Meaning and Commentary

John 6:4

And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh.
] This was the third passover, since our Lord's baptism, and entrance on his public ministry; see ( John 2:13 ) ( 5:1 ) . Whether Christ went up to this feast is not certain; some think he did not; but from what is said in ( John 7:1 ) , it looks as if he did: how nigh it was to the feast, cannot well be said. Thirty days before the feast, they began to talk about it; and especially in the last fifteen days, they made preparations for it, as being at hand F2; and if there was now so long time to it, there was time enough for Jesus to go to it.

Johannes 6:4 In-Context

2 En Hem volgde een grote schare, omdat zij Zijn tekenen zagen, die Hij deed aan de kranken.
3 En Jezus ging op den berg, en zat aldaar neder met Zijn discipelen.
4 En het pascha, het feest der Joden, was nabij.
5 Jezus dan, de ogen opheffende, en ziende, dat een grote schare tot Hem kwam, zeide tot Filippus: Van waar zullen wij broden kopen, opdat deze eten mogen?
6 (Doch dit zeide Hij, hem beproevende; want Hij wist Zelf, wat Hij doen zou.)
