The crux of John 6 are the four times Jesus uses the word “feed.” Verses 54, 56, 57, & 58
The word can be hard to define and do. There are times in scripture that words are just like that. Theology runs very, very deep, even for the greatest scholars. Parts of Scripture reveal that God and His truth are not fully understandable. See Romans 11:33-36 and Isaiah 55:8-9
But we get a very good hint about feeding from a word tucked into verses 54-59. Look at verse 56. Find the word abide.
This is a word used almost exclusively by the apostle John. And for John it is a common word.
Take a look at John 15:4-5. There’s a hint there for all of us. Wrestle with what it means to abide in the vine. It’s connected to feeding in Jesus. It might mean the same thing.
Keep reading. Keep thinking. Keep wrestling.
