John 6:51

---

← John 6:50 [words of Jesus]	John 6:51 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	John 6:52 →
This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.	I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.	The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us [his] flesh to eat?
