In the Greek, "bread" (ἄρτος, artos) is a staple of sustenance, representing essential nourishment. Historically, bread was a daily necessity, symbolizing life and provision. In the Old Testament, manna was the miraculous bread from heaven that sustained the Israelites in the wilderness (Exodus 16). Here, Jesus is identified as the true "bread of God," indicating that He is the ultimate source of spiritual sustenance and life, surpassing the temporary provision of manna. is He who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world "My Father giveth" . . . . . "the bread of God." "The (ideally) true bread" . . . . . "giveth life unto the world." "From heaven" . . . . . "which cometh down from heaven." The tenses are present. (Comp. Notes on John 6:50-51.) The manna in the wilderness was but one instance of that which is constant. The Jewish nation was but an unit in the Father's family. The bread of God ever cometh and ever giveth life, and the life which it giveth is for the world. Every word proceeding from the mouth of God, spoken in many portions and in many ways, was part of the true food for the true life of man. Verse 33. - For the bread of God is that which cometh down out of heaven, and giveth life to the world. It is debated whether the ὁ καταβαίνων is "he who cometh down," or "that (bread) which cometh," etc. - whether in this verse the Lord passes at once to the identification of himself with the bread, or for a moment longer is delaying the announcement, and broadly asserting the qualities of that "bread of God," viz. that whoever and whatever it is, IT comes from heaven, and gives life, not merely to the theocratic people, but to the whole world. (The latter is the view of Hengstenberg, Lange, Meyer, Westcott, Moulton; the former translation is partially urged by Godet, who thinks our Lord here spoke amphibologically, meaning both ideas, but by the form of the expression reserving the solution of the problem.) It certainly does not follow that, if he was speaking of himself, the expression ὁ καταβάς would have been used, because, in ver. 50, after he has removed all ambiguity, he still uses the present tense, ὁ καταβαίνων. The present tense is that of quality rather than of time. These characteristics of the veritable bread of God must hold good. It must have a heavenly origin, life-giving power, and universality of application to human need. John 3:16 is here repeated. The whole world is the object of the Divine grace and love. The bread of God must be a Divine gift, mysterious and heavenly in its origin, and must at once demonstrate its vitality, its Source, and its Giver.Parallel Commentaries ...
