Johannes 6

John 6:14

Therefore when the people saw the sign which He had performed, they said, “This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world.”

(en) The sign. The miraculous feeding led the Jews to conclude that Jesus was the prophet foretold by Moses.

(b) The Prophet. The Jews revered Moses, but Moses said that the Lord would send another prophet that they should listen to (Deu. 18:15). That Prophet was Jesus (Acts 3:22, 7:37).

John 6:15

So Jesus, perceiving that they were intending to come and take him by force to make him king, withdrew again to the mountain by himself alone.

Make him king. The Jews were looking for a Messiah who would deliver Israel from its oppressors and overthrow the Romans. (The noncanonical Psalms of Solomon, which may have been written about the time the Romans invaded Israel in 60 BC, says the Messiah will “purge Jerusalem from nations… (and) thrust out sinners from the inheritance.”) When Jesus didn’t live up to their expectations, they tried to force his hand. Jesus made himself scarce.

Johannes 6:27

"Arbejd ikke for den mad, der forgår, men for den mad, som varer til evigt liv, som Menneskesønnen vil give jer, for på ham har Faderen, Gud, sat sit segl."

(en) Arbejd ikke for den mad, der går til grunde. Det vigtigste arbejde, vi nogensinde vil gøre, er at tage del i Jesus, livets brød. Det er sandelig det at tro på Jesus det work of God (John 6:29).

(b) Mad der holder. Jesus is bread of God which gives life to the world (John 6:33).

(c) Faderen; se indgang for John 4:21.

(d) Evigt liv lever for evigt i forening med Jesus; se indgang for John 3:15.

Johannes 6:29

Jesus svarede og sagde til dem: "Dette er Guds værk, at I tror på ham, som han har sendt."

(en) Guds værk. I den nye nådepagt har Jesus udført hele arbejdet; din del er at stole på ham.

Much confusion has come from misunderstanding the relationship between faith and works. We are justified by faith and not our good works, but faith without works is dead and useless (Jas. 2:17, 20). What are the works of faith? In the New Testament, there are more than 200 imperative statements linked with faith. Some of these statements exhort us to: receive Jesus (John 1:11-12, 5:43), receive the message of Jesus (John 17:8), obey or heed the message or good news of Jesus (John 17:6) and turn to God in repentance (Acts 26:20).

Other scriptures encourage us to accept the word (Mark 4:20), confess Jesus as Lord (Rom. 10:9), call on the name of the Lord (Act 2:21), eat the bread of life (John 6:50-51), be reconciled to God (2 Cor. 5:20), submit to God’s righteousness (Rom. 10:3), and be born again (John 3:3, 7). But the one imperative that appears far more than any other, is the instruction to believe. We are to believe in Jesus (see indgang for John 3:16).

(b) Tro på ham. If faith is the noun – the state of being persuaded that God loves you – then believing is the verb or activity that flows from that conviction. Indeed, believing in Jesus is both the work of God and the command of the Lord (1 John 3:23). We do not believe to create faith. Rather, believing is the action that reveals our faith. “Having the same spirit of faith… we also believe” (2 Cor. 4:13).

The chief takeaway of the new covenant is to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ (see indgang for John 3:16).

(c) Han sendte. Ved adskillige lejligheder fortalte Jesus sine disciple, at han ikke var fra jorden, men var kommet eller sendt fra himlen. Se indgang for John 6:38.

John 6:30

So they said to him, “What then do you do for a sign, so that we may see, and believe you? What work do you perform?

(en) Sign. The Jews wanted a sign from heaven to prove that God was with Jesus; see indgang for Matt. 12:38.

(b) Believe you. How fickle were the crowds! Jesus fed the 5000 and they believed he was the Prophet foretold by Moses (John 6:14). But just a few verses later they were no longer convinced. They wanted another sign. Their craving for signs only demonstrated their unbelief. For this reason, Jesus called them “an evil and adulterous generation” (Matt. 12:39).

Johannes 6:33

"For Guds brød er det, som kommer ned fra himlen og giver verden liv."

Kommer ned fra himlen. On numerous occasions, Jesus told his disciples that he was not from earth but had come or been sent from heaven. See indgang for John 6:38.

Johannes 6:37

"Alt, hvad Faderen giver mig, skal komme til mig, og den, der kommer til mig, vil jeg bestemt ikke uddrive.

(en) Faderen; se indgang for John 4:21.

(b) The Father gives Me. Those who come to the Lord come only by the grace of God. The Lord draws all of us by his Spirit, but not all respond in faith. Those who do are known as the elect or chosen (see indgang for 1 Pet. 1:1).

This verse is not saying that God is selective about who he saves, for God loves the whole world (John 3:16). He is not willing that any perish but desires all to come to repentance and be saved (2 Pet. 3:9, 1 Tim. 2:4). Whoever believes is saved (John 3:16).

(c) Jeg vil bestemt ikke kaste ud. Bemærk fraværet af betingelser og kvalifikationer. Jesus siger ikke: "Jeg vil ikke kaste dem ud, så længe de opfører sig rigtigt." Ét med Herren, du er evigt sikker.

Johannes 6:38

"For jeg er steget ned fra himlen, ikke for at gøre min egen vilje, men hans vilje, som har sendt mig.

Fra himlen. On numerous occasions, Jesus told his disciples that he was not from earth but had come or been sent from heaven (John 3:13, 5:23, 36, 37, 6:29, 33, 38, 39, 44, 51, 57, 58, 8:16, 18, 23, 42, 10:36, 12:49, 14:24, 16:28, 17:8, 18, 21, 23, 25, 18:37, 20:21).

“I have come down from heaven.” Because of Adam, humanity was on death row. (Romans 6 calls it living under the condemnation of sin and death.) But Jesus was not from Adam’s fallen line. Jesus was born outside the prison. Only a free man can ransom a slave.

Johannes 6:39

"Dette er hans vilje, som har sendt mig, at jeg intet mister af alt, hvad han har givet mig, men rejser det op på den yderste dag.

(en) Him who sent me. On numerous occasions, Jesus told his disciples that he was not from earth but had been sent from heaven. See indgang for John 6:38.

(b) Jeg mister intet. The Good Shepherd keeps his sheep and loses none of them (John 18:9).

Christ sustains us (Rom. 11:18, Eph. 5:29) and keeps us from stumbling (Jude 1:24). We can be confident that he will complete the good work he began in us (Php. 1:6) and bring us safely to his heavenly kingdom (2 Tim. 4:18).

Johannes 6:40

"For dette er min Faders vilje, at enhver, som ser Sønnen og tror på ham, skal have evigt liv, og jeg vil selv oprejse ham på den yderste dag."

(en) Min Faders vilje. The will of God is the same as the work of God and the command of God – that you believe in Jesus (John 6:29, 1 John 3:23). Jesus is the will of God made flesh.

(b) Min far; se indgang for John 4:21.

(c) ser Sønnen. Earlier Jesus said “whoever hears my word and believes” (John 5:24). We get a revelation of the Son by hearing the gospel.

(d) Og tror på ham. Alle Guds velsignelser, inklusive tilgivelse, frelse, retfærdighed og evigt liv, kommer til os frit af nåde og modtages ved tro. Troen tvinger ikke Gud til at tilgive os eller hellige os. Men troen er den kanal, som nåden strømmer igennem. Se indgang for Eph. 2:8.

(e) Evigt liv is a gift we receive when come to Christ (John 3:15).

Once upon a time you were dead in sins and separated from the zoe-life of God (Eph. 2:1). But the moment you put your faith in Christ you crossed over from death to life (John 5:24). Whoever believes in Christ has eternal life and shall not perish (John 3:16).

John 6:44

“No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up on the last day.

(en) Faderen; se indgang for John 4:21.

(b) Draws him. Those who come to the Lord come only by the grace of God. The Lord draws all of us by his Spirit, but not all respond in faith. See indgang for John 6:37.

(c) Who sent me. On numerous occasions, Jesus told his disciples that he was not from earth but had been sent from heaven. See indgang for John 6:38.

Johannes 6:46

"Ikke at nogen har set Faderen, undtagen den, som er fra Gud; Han har set Faderen.

(en) Faderen; se indgang for John 4:21.

(b) Han har set Faderen. The character and purposes of God are revealed in prophecies, laws, and visions, but the clearest picture of God the Father comes through the Son. “No one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son reveals him” (Matt. 11:27). It is through Jesus alone that we encounter the true character of God. “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me” (John 14:6).

Johannes 6:47

"Sandelig, sandelig siger jeg jer: Den, der tror, ​​har evigt liv.

(en) Den der tror; se indgang for John 3:16.

(b) Evigt liv is a gift we receive when come to Christ (John 3:15, 5:24).

We are not born immortal (Rom. 2:6–8). But the moment you put your faith in Christ you crossed over from death to life (John 5:24). Whoever believes in Christ has eternal life and shall not perish (John 3:16). Eternal life is living forever in union with Jesus; see indgang for John 3:15.

Johannes 6:51

"Jeg er det levende brød, der kom ned fra himlen; hvis nogen spiser af dette brød, skal han leve evindelig; og også det brød, som jeg vil give for verdens liv, er mit kød."

(en) Came down out of heaven. On numerous occasions, Jesus told his disciples that he was not from earth but had been sent from heaven. See indgang for John 6:38.

(b) Livet. To slags liv er beskrevet i Bibelen; det psuche– eller sjæleliv, vi har arvet fra Adam og den zoe– or spirit life that comes from God (John 5:26). It’s the second kind of life that is described here. See indgang til nyt liv.

(c) Mit kød. Min krop. Jesus vil ofre sit legeme, så alle kan leve.

John 6:53

So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves.

(en) You have no life. The natural man is not spiritually dead but he is dead in sin (see indgang for Eph. 5:2). He is living on death row (Rom. 5:12). But the moment he puts his faith in Christ he crosses over from death to life (John 5:24).

(b) Life. To slags liv er beskrevet i Bibelen; det psuche– eller sjæleliv, vi har arvet fra Adam og den zoe– or spirit life that comes from God (John 5:26). It’s the second kind of life that is described here. See indgang til nyt liv.

John 6:54

“He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.

Evigt liv is living forever in union with Jesus, the Author of Life; see indgang for John 3:15.

John 6:57

“As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats Me, he also will live because of Me.

(en) Faderen; se indgang for John 4:21.

(b) Sent me. On numerous occasions, Jesus told his disciples that he was not from earth but had been sent from heaven. See indgang for John 6:38.

John 6:58

“This is the bread which came down out of heaven; not as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live forever.”

Came down out of heaven. On numerous occasions, Jesus told his disciples that he was not from earth but had been sent from heaven. See indgang for John 6:38.

John 6:59

These things He said in the synagogue as He taught in Capernaum.

Synagogue. Jesus prædikede ofte i de jødiske forsamlinger eller synagoger; se indgang for John 18:20.

Johannes 6:63

”Det er Ånden, der giver liv; kødet gavner intet; de ord, som jeg har talt til dig, er ånd og er liv.

(en) Ånden, der giver liv. Helligåndens vigtigste tjeneste er at give liv til de døde.

Teknisk set, zoe-life comes from God the Father (John 5:21, 26, 6:27, Acts 17:28, Heb. 12:9) and God the Son (John 1:4, 5:21, 14:6, Rom. 6:23, 2 Tim. 1:9, 1 John 1:2, 1 John 5:11-13). But this life comes to us via God the Holy Spirit.

Yet there is a danger of over-thinking things and splitting hairs. John 6:63 says the Spirit gives life while 1 John 5:12 says he who has the Son has the life. There is no difference. If you have the Son you have the Spirit and if you have the Spirit you have the Son. Jesus is the life-giving Spirit (1 Cor. 15:45).

Se indgang til nyt liv.

(b) Kødet gavner intet. You can be the best person in the world and in the end it will count for nought, because flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God (1 Cor. 15:50). We all need to be born of the Spirit. We all need to be born again.

Johannes 6:64

"Men der er nogle af jer, der ikke tror." For Jesus vidste fra begyndelsen, hvem de var, der ikke troede, og hvem det var, der ville forråde ham.

Tror ikke. In the crowds that followed Jesus there were two kinds of people. There were some who believed that Jesus were the Son of God and others who didn’t. These unbelievers were following Christ but they hadn’t made up their minds. Jesus decided to force the issue by saying “no one can come to me unless it has been granted him from the Father” (see next verse). This was too much for some and they turned away (John 6:66). They literally turned aside and went astray. Having hardened their hearts to the Lord’s voice, it was unlikely that they would ever return to the place of decision (Heb. 4:7).

John 6:65

And He was saying, “For this reason I have said to you, that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted him from the Father.”

(en) Faderen; se entry for John 4:21.

(b) Unless it has been granted. Those who come to the Lord come only by the grace of God. The Lord draws all of us by his Spirit, but not all respond in faith. See indgang for John 6:37.

Johannes 6:66

Som et resultat af dette trak mange af hans disciple sig tilbage og gik ikke længere sammen med ham.

Mange af hans disciple trak sig tilbage. De vantro i mængden vendte sig væk. Se indgang for John 6:64.

John 6:67

So Jesus said to the twelve, “You do not want to go away also, do you?”

The twelve were Jesus closest disciples. They were variously known as the twelve disciples and the twelve apostles (Matt. 10:1–2). Their names were Simon Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Matthew the tax collector, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot (Matt. 10:2–4).

John 6:68

Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have words of eternal life.

Evigt liv lever for evigt i forening med Jesus; se indgang for John 3:15.

John 6:71

Now He meant Judas the son of Simon Iscariot, for he, one of the twelve, was going to betray Him.

Simon Iscariot was one nine men named Simon in the New Testament; see indgang for Matt. 4:18.
