John 6:41-51, Jesus Gives His Flesh for the Life of the World
[August 9, 2015] This gospel text was read on the tenth Sunday of the quiet growing season (signified by the color green) after Trinity Sunday, and it is the second part of Jesus’ discourse in the synagogue of Capernaum on the manna that comes down from heaven. In it he is presenting himself as the Bread of Life. This discourse is actually a continuation of the story of his feeding the multitude…
