Jesus Declares, 'I Am the Bread of Life'

35

Yeshua answered, “I am the bread which is life! Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever trusts in me will never be thirsty.

36

I told you that you have seen but still don’t trust.

37

Everyone the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will certainly not turn away.

38

For I have come down from heaven to do not my own will but the will of the One who sent me.

39

And this is the will of the One who sent me: that I should not lose any of all those he has given me but should raise them up on the Last Day.

40

Yes, this is the will of my Father: that all who see the Son and trust in him should have eternal life, and that I should raise them up on the Last Day.”

41

At this the Judeans began grumbling about him because he said, “I am the bread which has come down from heaven.”

42

They said, “Isn’t this Yeshua Ben-Yosef? We know his father and mother! How can he now say, ‘I have come down from heaven’?”

43

Yeshua answered them, “Stop grumbling to each other!

44

No one can come to me unless the Father — the One who sent me — draws him. And I will raise him up on the Last Day.

45

It is written in the Prophets, ‘They will all be taught by Adonai.’ Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him comes to me.

46

Not that anyone has seen the Father except the one who is from God — he has seen the Father.

47

Yes, indeed! I tell you, whoever trusts has eternal life:

48

I am the bread which is life.

49

Your fathers ate the man in the desert; they died.

50

But the bread that comes down from heaven is such that a person may eat it and not die.
