Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
Howbeit (alla). Verse 23 is really an explanatory parenthesis in this long sentence. Tiberias, capital of Herod Antipas, diagonally across the lake, is only mentioned in John in the N.T. (John 6:1, John 6:23; John 21:1).
Boats (ploia). Called "little boats" (ploiaria) in verse John 6:24.
