John 6:40 - Forerunner Commentary

John 6:40

38 For I have come down from heaven, ^anot to do My own will, ^bbut the will of Him who sent Me.

39 This is the will of the Father who sent Me, ^athat of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.

40 And this is the will of Him who sent Me, ^athat everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

41 The Jews then¹ complained about Him, because He said, “I am the bread which came down from heaven.”

42 And they said, ^a“Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, ‘I have come down from heaven’?”

43 Jesus therefore answered and said to them,¹ “Do not murmur among yourselves.

44 ^aNo one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me ^bdraws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.

45 It is written in the prophets, ^a‘And they shall all be taught by God.’ ^bTherefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me.

46 ^aNot that anyone has seen the Father, ^bexcept He who is from God; He has seen the Father.
