John 6:2 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) [a] large (polus) crowd (ochlos) was following (ēkolouthei) him (autō), because (hoti) they were observing (etheōroun) the (ta) signs (sēmeia) which (ha) he was doing (epoiei) over (epi) [the sake, AE] of the ones (tōn) being disabled (asthenountōn).

Therefore (oun), the (hoi) males (andres) fell up377 (anepesan).  

 

The (ton) number (arithmon) [was] as (hōs) five thousands (pentakischilioi).

John 6:16 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) as (hōs) evening (opsia) caused itself to come to pass (egeneto) the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) of him (autou) walked down (katebēsan) over (epi) by the (tēn) sea (thalassan).

 

John 6:17 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) they having embarked (embantes) into (eis) [a] ship (ploion) they were causing themselves to come (ērchonto) [to, AE] [the] other side (peran) of the (tēs) sea (thalassēs), into (eis) Capernaum (Kapharnaoum)

 

And (kai) it had already become (ēdē egegonei) dark (skotia), and (kai) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) had absolutely not yet come (oupō elēluthei) to (pros) them (autous)!

And (kai) they were caused to be in fear (ephobēthēsan).

 

John 6:20 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) [Jesus, v19, RE] says (legei) to them (autois), “I (egō) am (eimi) [Jesus, v19, RE]!

 

Do not be made fearful (mē phobeisthe).”

 

John 6:21 (LIT/UBS4) Therefore (oun), they were desiring (ēthelon) to take (labein) him (auton) into (eis) the (to) ship (ploion).

 

And (kai) the (to) ship (ploion) into (eis) which (hēn) they were getting underway (hupēgon) caused itself to become (egeneto) straightaway (eutheōs) upon (epi) the (tēs) land (gēs).

 

John 6:22 (LIT/UBS4) Upon the morrow (tē epaurion) the (ho) crowd (ochlos), the one (ho) having stood (hestēkōs) [on, AE] [the] other side (peran) of the (tēs) sea (thalassēs), they saw (eidon) that (hoti) another (allo) small ship (ploiarion) was absolutely not being (ouk ēn) there (ekei), if (ei) not (mē) one (hen);

 

and (kai) that (hoti) the (tois) disciples (mathētais) of him (autou) absolutely did not enter in together with (ou suneisēlthen) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) into (eis) the (to) ship (ploion)!  

 

BUT (alla), the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) of him (autou) were gone away (apēlthon) alone (monoi)!

 

John 6:23 (LIT/UBS4) Other (alla) small ships (ploi) came (ēlthen) out (ek) of Tiberias (Tiberiados), near (engus) the (tou) place (topou) where (hopou) they ate (ephagon) the (ton) bread (arton) of the (tou) lord (kuriou), having given thanks well (eucharistēsantos).

 

John 6:24 (LIT/UBS4) Therefore (oun), when (hote) the (ho) crowd (ochlos) saw (eiden) that (hoti) Jesus (Iēsous) is (estin) absolutely not (ouk) there (ekei), but absolutely neither (oude) the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) of him (autou), they (autoi) embarked (enebēsan) into (eis) the (ta) small ships (ploiaria) and (kai) came (ēlthon) into (eis) Capernaum (kapharnaoum) searching (zētountes) for the (ton) Jesus (Iēsoun)!

John 6:26 (LIT/UBS4) The (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) was caused to make [a] decision (apekrithē) for them (autois), and (kai) he enunciated (eipen), “Truly (amēn), truly (amēn) I say (legō) to you (humin), you search (zēteite) for me (me) absolutely not (ouch) because (hoti) you saw (eidete) signs (sēmeia), BUT (all’), because (hoti) you ate (ephagete) out (ek) of the (tou) loaves of bread (artōn), and (kai) you were fed (echortasthēte)!

 

John 6:27 (LIT/UBS4) Work (ergazesthe) not (mē) for the (tēn) food (brōsin), the (tēn) [kind, AE] you yourself are losing (apollumenēn).

Because (gar) this (touton) [kind, RE] the (ho) Father (patēr), the (ho) God (theos), sealed (esphragisen).”

 

John 6:28 (LIT/UBS4) Therefore (oun), they enunciated (eipon) to (pros) him (auton), “What (ti) may we do (poiōmen) in order that (hina) we may cause ourselves to work (ergazōmetha) the (ta) works (erga) of the (tou) God (theou)?”

 

John 6:29 (LIT/UBS4) The (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) was caused to make [a] decision (apekrithē), and (kai) he enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “This (touto) is (estin) the (to) work (ergon) of the (tou) God (theou), that (hoti) you may believe (pisteuēte) into (eis) whom (hon) that one (ekeinos) sent (apesteilen).”

 

John 6:30 (LIT/UBS4) Therefore (oun), they enunciated (eipon) to him (autō), “Therefore (oun), what (ti) sign (sēmeion) do you do (poieis su), in order that (hina) we may see (idōmen) [it, AE], and (kai) we may believe (pisteusōmen) you (soi)?

 

What (ti) [sign, RE] do you cause yourself to work (ergazē)?

 

John 6:31 (LIT/UBS4) The (hoi) fathers (pateres) of us (hēmōn) ate (ephagon) the (to) manna (manna) in (en) the (tē) desolate place (erēmō), down as (kathos) it is (estin) having been written (gegrammenon), ‘He gave (edōken) to them (autois) bread (arton) out (ek) of the (tou) heaven (ouranou) to eat (phagein).’”

 

John 6:32 (LIT/UBS4) Therefore (oun), the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “Truly (amēn), truly (amēn) I say (legō) to you (humin), Moses (Mōusēs) has absolutely not given (ou dedōken) to you (humin) the (ton) bread (arton) out (ek) of the (tou) heaven (ouranou)!  

 

BUT (all’), the (ho) Father (patēr) of me (mou) gives (didōsin) to you (humin) the (ton) bread (arton) out (ek) of the (tou) heaven (ouranou), the (ton) true (alēthinon) [bread, RE]!

 

John 6:33 (LIT/UBS4) Because (gar) the (ho) bread (artos) of the (tou) God (theou) is (estin) the (ho) [son, v27, RE] stepping down (katabainōn) out (ek) of the (tou) heaven (ouranou) and (kai) giving (didous) life (zōēn) to the (tō) cosmos (kosmō).”

John 6:34 (LIT/UBS4) Therefore (oun), they enunciated (eipon) to (pros) him (auton), “Lord (kurie), always (pantote) give (dos) this (touton), the (ton) bread (arton), to us (hēmin).”

 

John 6:35 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “I (egō) am (eimi) the (ho) [bread, RE], the (tēs) bread (artos) of life (zōēs)

 

The one (ho) causing himself to come (erchomenos) to (pros) me (eme), no (mē), absolutely not (ou) may he pine (peinasē)!

 

And (kai) the one (ho) believing (pisteuōn) upon (epi) me (eme), no (mē), he shall absolutely not thirst (ou dipsēsei) ever, at any time (pōpote)!

 

John 6:36 (LIT/UBS4) BUT (alla), I enunciated (eipon) [this, AE] to you (humin) because (hoti) you also have gazed at (kai heōrakate) me (eme), and (kai) you absolutely do not believe (ou pisteuete)!

 

John 6:37 (LIT/UBS4) Everyone (pan) whom (ho) the (ho) Father (patēr) gives (didōsin) to me (moi) shall arrive (hēxei) to (pros) me (eme)

 

And (kai) the one (ton) causing himself to come (erchomenon) to (pros) me (eme), no (mē), absolutely not may I throw (ou ekbalō) [that one, AE] out (exō)!

 

John 6:38 (LIT/UBS4) Because (hoti), I have stepped down (katabebēka) from (apo) the (tou) heaven (ouranou) absolutely not (ouch) in order that (hina) I may do (poiō) the (to) desire (thelēma), the (to) [desire, RE] of me (emon), BUT (alla), the (to) desire (thelēma) of the (tou) [Father, v17, RE] having sent (pempsantos) me (me)!

 

(For the Word’s heavenly pre-existence as a spirit-based being see Prov. 8:22-31; Dan. 3:25-28; John 1:1-2, 14, 30, 3:13, 31, 6:33, 38, 41, 50-51, 58-62, 8:23-26, 58, 13:3, 16:27-30, 17:5-8, 24; Rom. 8:29; 1 Cor. 10:4, 9, 15:47; Gal. 4:1-5; Eph. 4:8-10, Phil. 2:6-7; Col. 1:15; Heb. 1:4-6, 3:2; 1 Pet. 1:20; 1 John 1:2; Rev. 3:14)

 

(For Jesus Christ desiring not to do his own will, but the will of his heavenly Father, see Mat. 26:42; Luke 22:42; John 4:34, 5:30, 6:38.)

 

John 6:39 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) this (touto) is (estin) the (to) desire (thelēma) of the (tou) [Father, v17, RE] having sent (pempsantos) me (me):

 

that (hina) everyone (pan) which (ho) he has given (dedōken) to me (moi) I may not lose (mē apolesō) [anyone, AE] out (ex) of it (autou), BUT (alla), [in order that, RE] I may stand him up (anastēsō auto) in (en) the (tē) last (eschatē) day (hēmera)!

 

John 6:40 (LIT/UBS4) Because (gar) this (touto) is (estin) the (to) desire (thelēma) of the (tou) Father (patros) of me (mou):

 

that (hina) everyone (pas), the one (ho) observing (theōrōn) the (ton) son (huion) and (kai) believing (pisteuōn) into (eis) him (auton), he may hold (echē) ageless (aiōnion) life (zōēn)

 

And (kai) I (egō) shall stand him up (anastēsō auton) in (en) the (tē) last (eschatē) day (hēmera)!”

 

(For a beginning offering see John 6:35-40; Rom. 8:23, 11:16, 16:5; 1 Cor. 15:20-23, 16:15; Heb. 11:1-6; James 1:17-19; Rev. 14:4)

 

John 6:41 (LIT/UBS4) Therefore (oun), the (hoi) Judeans (Ioudaioi) were murmuring (egonguzon) about (peri) him (autou), because (hoti) he enunciated (eipen), ‘I (egō) am (eimi) the (ho) bread (artos), the (ho) [bread, RE] having stepped down (katabas) out (ek) of the (tou) heaven (ouranou)’.

 

(For the Word’s heavenly pre-existence as a spirit-based being see Prov. 8:22-31; Dan. 3:25-28; John 1:1-2, 14, 30, 3:13, 31, 6:33, 38, 41, 50-51, 58-62, 8:23-26, 58, 13:3, 16:27-30, 17:5-8, 24; Rom. 8:29; 1 Cor. 10:4, 9, 15:47; Gal. 4:1-5; Eph. 4:8-10, Phil. 2:6-7; Col. 1:15; Heb. 1:4-6, 3:2; 1 Pet. 1:20; 1 John 1:2; Rev. 3:14)

 

John 6:42 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) they were saying (elegon), “Is (estin) this (houtos) [bread, v41, RE] absolutely not (ou) Jesus (Iēsous), the (ho) son (huios) of Joseph (Iōsēph), of whom (hou) we (hēmeis) have seen (oidamen) the (ton) father (patera) and (kai) the (tēn) mother (mētera)!? 

 

Now (nun) how (pōs) does he say (legei) that (hoti), ‘Out (ek) of the (tou) heaven (ouranou) I have stepped down (katabebēka)?’”

 

John 6:43 (LIT/UBS4) Jesus (Iēsous) was caused to make [a] decision (apekrithē), and (kai) he enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “Do not (mē) murmur (gonguzete) with (met’) one another (allēlōn).

 

John 6:44 (LIT/UBS4) Absolutely not one (oudeis) can inherently power himself (dunatai) to come (elthein) to (pros) me (me) if not perhaps (ean mē) the (ho) Father (patēr), the one (ho) having sent (pempsas) me (me), may draw (helkusē) him (auton) [to me, RE]! 

 

And I (kagō) shall stand him up (anastēsō auton) in (en) the (tē) last (eschatē) day (hēmera).

 

(In Rom. 2:4 apostle Paul says that the wealth of God’s benevolence, self-restraint and patience toward an unbeliever, leads him into repentance to God.  In Acts 20:21 disciple Luke records Paul stating that repentance is to be to God, and then they are to believe the Evangelism of Jesus Christ. In Acts 11:6 disciple Luke records apostle Peter stating that it is God who grants repentance into life. In 2 Tim. 2:25 apostle Paul states also that it is God who grants repentance, but here into experiential knowledge of Truth. In John 6:44 Jesus states that those who have repented to his heavenly Father are then sent to him, Christ Jesus, to believe in his Evangelism. In John 14:6 apostle John records Jesus Christ stating that those who have believed his Evangelism are then sent back to his heavenly Father, presumably now as sons of God. Jesus Christ having baptized them in God’s gift of his paternal holy Spirit (Mat. 3:11), the believing disciples, now as sons of God, now have the ability to approach the God, who is now their heavenly Father (Eph. 2:17, 3:11). 

 

In Summary: In Rom. 2:4 God draws unbelievers to himself to grant them repentance.  In John 6:44 then God sends them to his son to learn discipleship, to hear and believe Jesus' Evangelism. Then in John 14:6 Jesus Christ sends them back to his heavenly Father presumably as newborn sons of God, they having received a new birth above in God’s gift of his paternal holy Spirit, to now be taught of God and to learn sonship.  Jesus Christ, their brother, teaches believers discipleship.  God, their heavenly Father, teaches them sonship.)

 

John 6:45 (LIT/UBS4) It is (estin) having been written (gegrammenon) in (en) the (tois) prophets (prophētais), ‘And (kai) they shall cause themselves to be (esontai) all (pantes) ones taught (didaktoi) of God (theou, YHWH).’ 

 

(See Isa. 54:13; Jer. 31:31-34)

 

Everyone (pas), the one (ho) having heard (akousas) alongside3844, 3936 (para) of the (tou) Father (patros) and (kai) having learned (mathōn), he causes himself to come (erchetai) to (pros) me (eme).

 

(For all those who have received a new birth above in God’s promised gift of his paternal holy Spirit (Lev. 26:11-12; John 3:3-8; Acts 1:4; 2 Cor. 6:16-18; *1 Pet. 1:23), and for those paternal sons being taught by God (YHWH) himself, see Isa. 54:13; Jer. 31:31-34; Luke 12:12; John 5:19-20, 6:45, 14:26, 15:26, 16:13-14; 1 Cor. 1:4-8, 2:10, 12:8; 2 Cor. 5:19; Gal. 1:12; Eph. 4:20-21; 1 Thes. 4:9; 2 Tim. 2:7; 2 Tim. 2:7; Heb. 8:8-12, 10:16-17; James 1:5-6; 1 John 2:27, 5:20)

 

John 6:46 (LIT/UBS4) Because (hoti) absolutely not (ouch) anyone (tis) has gazed at (heōraken) the (ton) Father (patera), if (ei) not (mē) the one (ho) being (ōn) alongside3844, 3936 (para) of the (tou) God (theou)

 

This one (houtos) has gazed at (heōraken) the (ton) Father (patera).

 

(For a believer's responsibility to stand himself alongside of the Father through doing good works, in order to receive anything from him, see Mat. 6:1-4, 18:19, 19:26, 21:42; Mark 10:27, 12:11; Luke 1:30, 37; John 5:44, 6:45-46, 8:38-42, 9:16, 33, 17:5-8; Rom. 2:11-13, 6:13, 12:1; 1 Cor. 7:24, 8:8a; 2 Cor. 9:8; Gal. 3:11; Eph. 6:8; 1 Tim. 2:10; 2 Tim. 3:17; Tit. 2:14, 3:8,14; Heb. 10:24; James 1:5-7, 27; 1 Pet. 2:20-21; 2 Pet. 3:8; 2 John 1:3; Rev. 2:28)

 

(For who has gazed at, and who has not gazed at, the God the Father, see John 1:18, 5:37, 6:46, 14:7-11, 15:23-25, 20:28-29; 1 John 1:3, 4:20-21; 3 John 1:11)

 

John 6:47 (LIT/UBS4) Truly (amēn), truly (amēn) I say (legō) to you (humin), the one (ho) believing (pisteuōn) holds (echei) ageless (aiōnion) life (zōēn)!

 

John 6:48 (LIT/UBS4) I (ego) am (eimi) the (ho) bread (artos) of the (tēs) life (zōēs).

John 6:50 (LIT/UBS4) This (houtos) [manna, v49, RE] is (estin) the (ho) bread (artos), the (ho) [son, v42, RE] stepping down (katabainōn) out (ek) of the (tou) heaven (ouranou), in order that (hina) anyone (tis) may eat (phagē) out (ex) of him (autou) and (kai) may not die away (mē apothanē).

If perhaps (ean) anyone (tis) may eat (phagē) out (ek) of the (tou) bread (artou) of this (toutou), he shall live (zēsei) into (eis) the (ton) age (aiōna).

 

And (kai) the (ho) bread (artos), but (de) the (hē) flesh (sarx) of me (mou) which (hon) I shall give (dōsō), is (estin) over (huper) [the sake, AE] of the (tēs) life (zōēs) of the (tou) cosmos (kosmou).”
