33 For the bread of God is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.”

John 6:33

For the bread of God is he, etc.—This verse is perhaps best left in its own transparent grandeur—holding up the Bread Itself as divine, spiritual, and eternal; its ordained Fountain and essential Substance, "Him who came down from heaven to give it" (that Eternal Life which was with the Father and was manifested unto us, I John 1:2); and its designed objects, "the world."



John 6:32-33

Moses gave you not, etc.—"It was not Moses that gave you the manna, and even it was but from the lower heavens; 'but My Father giveth you the true bread,' and that 'from heaven.'"
