John 6:67

John 6:67

65 And He said, “Therefore ^aI have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father.”

66 ^aFrom that time many of His disciples went¹ back and walked with Him no more.

67 Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?”

68 But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have ^athe words of eternal life.

69 ^aAlso we have come to believe and know that You are the¹ Christ, the Son of the living God.”

70 Jesus answered them, ^a“Did I not choose you, the twelve, ^band one of you is a devil?”

Would ye also go away? (Mh kai umeiv qelete upagein). Jesus puts it with the negative answer (mh) expected. See John 21:5 where Jesus also uses mh in a question. Judas must have shown some sympathy with the disappointed and disappearing crowds. But he kept still. There was possibly restlessness on the part of the other apostles.
