Yochanan 6
6
1After these things, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach departed beyond Lake Kinneret (Lake Tiberias).
2And a riezige (sizable) multitude was following him, because they were seeing the otot (miraculous signs) which he was doing on the cholim (the ones being ill).
3And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went up to the mountain, and there he was sitting with his talmidim.
4Pesach was near at hand, the Chag (Jewish Feast).
5Therefore, having lifted up his eyes, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach saw that a great multitude is coming to him, and he says to Philippos, From where may we buy lechem that these ones may eat?
6But he was saying this to test Philippos, for he himself knew what he was about to do.
7In reply, Philippos said, Two hundred denarii worth of lechem would not be enough that each one may take a little okhel.
8One of his talmidim, Andrew, ach of Shim'on Kefa, says to him,
9There is a na'ar (lad) here who has five barley loaves and two dagim (fish), but what are these for so many?#6:9 2Kgs 4:43
10Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, Instruct the anashim (men) to recline. Now there was much grass in the area. Therefore the anashim reclined, their number being about chameshet alafim.
11Therefore, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach took the loaves and, having made the bracha, distributed to the ones bimesibba (reclining); likewise also he distributed of the dagim (fish) as much as they were wanting.
12Now when they were filled, he tells his talmidim, Gather the shirayim (Rebbeʼs leftovers), that nothing may be lost.
13Therefore, what they gathered from the five barley loaves filled Sheneym Asar (Twelve) baskets of shirayim left over by the ones having eaten.
14Therefore, the anashim, having seen what ot (miraculous sign) he did, were saying, This one is beemes the Navi, Hu HaBah, the one coming into the Olam Hazeh.#6:14 Dt 18:15,18
15Therefore, Yehoshua, having had da'as that they are about to come and to seize him that they might make him king by force, departed alone again to the mountain, withdrawing by himself.
16And as erev came, his talmidim went down to the sea.
17And having embarked into a sirah, they were going across the sea to K'far-Nachum. And choshech already had come and Yehoshua had not yet come to them.
18And the sea, as a great wind blew, was becoming aroused.
19Therefore, having rowed about esrim v'chamash or sheloshim stadia, they see Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach walking on the sea and coming near the sirah, and they were gefeirlich (horribly) frightened.#6:19 Job 9:8
20But he says to them, Ani Hu. Do not be afraid.
21Therefore, the talmidim were willing to receive him into the sirah. And immediately the sirah came to the shore to which they were going.
22On the next day the multitude that had stayed on the other side of Lake Kinneret saw that there had been only one sirah with which to cross the sea. They knew that Yehoshua had not embarked with his talmidim in that sirah, but that his talmidim had departed by themselves.
23Then some sirot (boats) came ashore from Tiberias and landed near the area where they ate the lechem after Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Adoneinu had made the bracha.
24Therefore, when the multitude saw Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach is not there, nor his talmidim, they embarked into the sirot and came to K'far-Nachum, seeking Yehoshua.
25And having found him across the sea, they said to him, Rebbe, when did you come here?
26In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, Omein, omein, I say to you, you are seeking me not because you saw otot (miraculous signs), but because you ate of the loaves and were glutted.
27Do not work for the okhel that is perishing, but for the okhel remaining to Chayyei Olam, which the Bar Enosh#6:27 Moshiach will give to you, for Elohim HaAv has set His chotam (seal) on this one.#6:27 Isa 55:2
28Therefore, they said to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, What may we do that we may work the pe'ulot Hashem?
29In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, This is the mitzvah of Hashem, that you may believe in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach whom Hashem has sent.
30They said, therefore, to him, What ot (sign) then do you perform that we may see and may have emunah in you? What work do you do?
31Avoteinu ate the manna in the wilderness,#6:31 Num 11:7-9; Ex 16:4,15; Neh 9:15 as it has been written, LECHEM from SHOMAYIM he gave them to eat.#6:31 Ps 78:24; 105:40
32Therefore, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Omein, omein, I say to you, it was not Moshe who has given you the lechem out of Shomayim, but HaAv of me gives you the lechem ha'amitti (the true bread) out of Shomayim.
33For the lechem of Hashem is that which comes down out of Shomayim and giving Chayyim (Life) to HaOlam.
34Therefore, they said to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Adoni, always give us this lechem.
35Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Ani Hu#6:35 Ex 3:14 the lechem haChayyim; the one coming to me never hungers, and the one with emunah in me will never thirst again.
36But I said to you that you have seen me and yet you do not have bitachon, you lack emunah.
37All which HaAv gives to me will come to me, and the one coming to me I will never turn away.
38For I have come down from Shomayim not that I may do my ratzon, but the ratzon of the One having sent me.
39Now this is the ratzon of the One Who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all which He has given me, but I will raise him up on the Yom HaAcharon (Last Day).#6:39 Isa 27:3; Jer 23:4
40For this is the ratzon of Avi: that everyone seeing the Ben#6:40 HaElohim Moshiach and believing in him may have Chayyei Olam, and on Yom HaAcharon I will raise him up.
41Therefore, those of Yehudah were murmuring about Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, because he said, Ani Hu#6:41 Ex 3:14 the lechem having come down out of Shomayim.#6:41 Ex 16:4
42And they were saying, Is this man not Yehoshua Ben Yosef,#6:42 Ben Dovid and do we not know his Av and his Em? Now how does he say, Out of Shomayim I have come down.#6:42 Jn 1:1,14
43Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach answered and said to them, Do not grumble among yourselves.
44No one is able to come to me unless HaAv Who sent me should draw him, and I will raise him up on the Yom HaAcharon.#6:44 Jer 31:3; Hos 11:4
45It has been written in the Nevi'im, V'CHOL they LIMUDI HASHEM (They shall all be taught of G-d).#6:45 Isa 54:13; see Jer 31:33,34 Everyone having heard from HaAv and having learned comes to me.
46Not that anyone has seen HaAv except the one being sent from Hashem; this one has seen HaAv.
47Omein, omein, I say to you, the one having emunah has Chayyei Olam.
48Ani Hu the lechem haChayyim.#6:48 Num 14:23; Dt 1:35
49Your Avot ate in the wilderness the manna and died.
50This is the lechem coming down out of Shomayim, so that anyone may eat of it and not die.#6:50 Gn 3:22
51Ani hu the lechem haChai (the living bread) having come down out of Shomayim. If anyone eats of this lechem he will live l'olam v'ed. And, indeed, the lechem which I will give on behalf of the Chayyim (life) of HaOlam is the basar of me.#6:51 Ex 12:8
52Therefore, those of Yehudah were arguing with one another, saying, How is this man able to give us the basar of him to eat?
53Therefore, he said to them, Omein, omein, I say to you, unless you eat the#6:53 Seudas Moshiach Seh basar of the Bar Enosh and drink#6:53 the Kiddush Cup of the Brit Chadasha in his dahm, you do not have Chayyim (Life) in yourselves.#6:53 Ex 12:3; Isa 53:7
54The one feeding on my#6:54 Seh Elohim basar and drinking#6:54 Cup of Redemption in dahmi has Chayyei Olam and I will raise him up on the Yom HaAcharon.#6:54 Ruth 4:5,10
55For my basar is okhel emes (true food) and dahmi is shikuy emes (true drink).
56The one feeding on my basar and drinking dahmi abides in,#6:56 Isa 53:7; Ex 12:3 dwells in me and I in him.#6:56 Ex 12:22
57As HaAv HaChai sent me and I live because of HaAv, so also whoever is feeding on me even that one will live because of me.
58This is the lechem out of Shomayim having come down, not as the Avot ate and died; the one feeding on this lechem will live l'olam v'ed.
59These things he said in a shul while teaching in K'far-Nachum.
60Therefore, many of Moshiachʼs talmidim, having heard, said, Hard is this dvar torah. Who is able to hear it?#6:60 Isa 53:1
61And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, having da'as in himself that his talmidim are grumbling about this, said to them, Does this cause a michshol for you?
62What if you behold the Bar Enosh ascending where he was Bereshis?
63The Ruach Hakodesh is that which is making alive, the basar does not profit anything. The devarim which I have spoken to you are as Ruach and they are as Chayyim (Life).
64But there are of you some who do not have emunah. For from Bereshis, he had da'as of whom are the ones not having emunah and who is the one betraying him.
65And he was saying, Because of this, I have told you that no one is able to come to me unless it has been bashert to him from HaAv.
66From this time, many of his talmidim fell away and no longer followed him as talmidim.
67Therefore, he said to the Sheneym Asar, Surely you do not want to depart also?
68In reply, Shim'on Kefa said to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Adoni, to whom will we go? You have the divrei haChayyei Olam.
69And we have bitachon and have trusted with emunah and we have da'as that you are HaKadosh of Hashem#6:69 Isa 49:7 (the Holy One of G-d).
70In reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Did I not choose you Sheneym Asar (Twelve)? And is one of you not a Satan?
71Now he was speaking of Yehudah Ben Shim'on from K'riot, for, though he was one of the Sheneym Asar, this one was about to betray Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.

John 6

New Manna in the Wilderness
1Afterwards, Yeshua went away to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, also known as the Sea of Tiberias.
2A large crowd kept following Him, because they were watching the signs He was performing on the sick.
3Then Yeshua went up the mountainside and sat down there with His disciples.
4Passover, the Jewish feast, was near.
5Lifting up His eyes and seeing a large crowd coming to Him, Yeshua said to Philip, “Where will we buy bread so these may eat?”
6Now Yeshua was saying this to test him, for He knew what He was about to do.
7Philip answered Him, “Two hundred denarii isn’t enough to buy bread for each to get a little bit!”
8One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him,
9“There’s a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish—but what’s that for so many?”
10Yeshua said, “Make the people recline.” There was much grass in the area. So the men reclined, about five thousand in number.
11Then Yeshua picked up the loaves. And having given thanks, He distributed bread to everyone who was reclining. He did the same with the fish, as much as they wanted.
12When the people were full, Yeshua said to His disciples, “Gather up the leftovers, so nothing is wasted.”
13So they gathered them and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves, which were left over by those who had finished eating.
14When the people saw the sign that Yeshua performed, they began to say, “This is most certainly the Prophet who is to come into the world!”
15Realizing that they were about to come and seize Him by force to make Him king, Yeshua withdrew again to the mountain, Himself alone.
The Savior on the Sea
16Now when evening came, Yeshua’s disciples went down to the sea.
17Getting into a boat, they set out to cross the sea toward Capernaum. By now it had become dark, and still Yeshua had not come to them.
18A great wind began to blow, stirring up the sea.
19After they had rowed about twenty-five or thirty stadia, they catch sight of Yeshua walking on the sea, approaching the boat. They were terrified!
20But Yeshua says to them, “I am. Don’t be afraid.”
21Then they wanted to take Him into the boat, and right away the boat reached the shore where they were headed.
The Bread from Heaven
22The next day, the crowd remaining on the other side of the sea realized that no other boat had been there except the one, and that Yeshua hadn’t gone into the boat with His disciples, but that His disciples had gone away alone.
23Some other boats from Tiberias came close to the place where they had eaten the bread after the Master had given thanks.
24So when the crowd realized that neither Yeshua nor His disciples were there, they got into the boats and set off for Capernaum to find Him.
25When they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said, “Rabbi, when did You get here?”
26Yeshua responded to them, “Amen, amen I tell you, you seek Me not because you saw signs, but because you ate all the bread and were filled.
27Don’t work for food that spoils, but for the food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give to you. For on Him, God the Father has put the seal of approval.”
28Then they said to Him, “What shall we do to perform the works of God?”
29Yeshua answered them, “This is the work of God, to trust in the One He sent.”
30So they said to Him, “Then what sign do You perform, so that we may see and believe You? What work do You do?
31Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, ‘Out of heaven He gave them bread to eat.’”
32Yeshua answered them, “Amen, amen I tell you, it isn’t Moses who has given you bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven.
33For the bread of God is the One coming down from heaven and giving life to the world.”
34So they said to Him, “Sir, give us this bread from now on!”
35Yeshua said to them, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to Me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in Me will never be thirsty.
36But I told you that you have seen Me, yet you do not believe.
37Everyone the Father gives Me will come to Me, and anyone coming to Me I will never reject.
38For I have come down from heaven not to do My own will but the will of the One who sent Me.
39“Now this is the will of the One who sent Me, that I lose not one of all He has given Me, but raise each one on the last day.
40For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who sees the Son and trusts in Him may have eternal life; and I will raise him up on the last day.”
41Some of the Judeans started to grumble about Him, because He said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.”
42They were saying, “Isn’t this Yeshua the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can He now say, ‘I have come down from heaven’?”
43Yeshua answered, “Stop grumbling among yourselves!
44No one can come to Me unless My Father who sent Me draws him—and I will raise him up on the last day.
45It is written in the Prophets, ‘They will all be taught by God.’ Everyone who has listened and learned from the Father comes to Me.
46Not that anyone has seen the Father except the One who is from God—He has seen the Father.
47“Amen, amen I tell you, he who believes has eternal life.
48I am the bread of life.
49Your fathers ate the manna in the desert, yet they died.
50This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that one may eat and not die.
51I am the living bread, which came down from heaven. If anyone eats this bread, he will live forever. This bread is My flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”
52Then the Jews began arguing with one another, “How can this man give us His flesh to eat?”
53So Yeshua said to them, “Amen, amen I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves.
54He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.
55“For My flesh is real food and My blood is real drink.
56He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him.
57Just as the living Father sent Me and I live because of the Father, so the one who eats of Me will also live because of Me.
58This is the bread that came down from heaven—not like the bread your fathers ate and then died. He who eats this bread will live forever.”
59He said these things while teaching at the synagogue in Capernaum.
Fallout from a Hard Teaching
60So when many of His disciples heard this, they said, “This is a hard teaching. Who can listen to it?”
61But Yeshua knew His disciples were murmuring, so He said to them, “Does this offend you?
62Then what if you see the Son of Man going back up to the place where He was before?
63It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is of no benefit. The words I have spoken to you are Spirit and are life!
64Yet some of you do not trust.” Yeshua knew from the beginning who were the ones who did not trust, as well as which one would betray Him.
65Then He told them, “For this reason I’ve told you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by the Father.”
66From this time, many of His disciples left and quit walking with Him.
67So Yeshua said to the Twelve, “You don’t want to leave also, do you?”
68Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life!
69We have trusted and have come to know that you are the Holy One of God.”
70Yeshua answered them, “Didn’t I choose you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is the adversary!”
71Now He was speaking of Judah, the son of Simon of Kriot—for he, one of the Twelve, was about to betray Him.
