John 6:2

2 et sequebatur eum multitudo magna quia videbant signa quae faciebat super his qui infirmabantur

John 6:2 Meaning and Commentary

John 6:2

And a great multitude followed him
From several cities and towns in Galilee, where he had been preaching and working miracles:

because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were
diseased;
so that it was not for the sake of his doctrine, or for the good of their souls, they followed him; but either to gratify their curiosity in seeing his miracles, or to be healed in their bodies, as others had been.

John 6:2 In-Context

2 et sequebatur eum multitudo magna quia videbant signa quae faciebat super his qui infirmabantur

3 subiit ergo in montem Iesus et ibi sedebat cum discipulis suis

4 erat autem proximum pascha dies festus Iudaeorum

5 cum sublevasset ergo oculos Iesus et vidisset quia multitudo maxima venit ad eum dicit ad Philippum unde ememus panes ut manducent hii
