“Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.”
John 6:31 (KJV)
Commentary on John 6:31
The crowd cites 'our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat' (Psalm 78:24), implicitly challenging Jesus to match Moses' provision. Their appeal to Scripture and ancestry reveals how we can use biblical truth to resist present revelation. They cite manna but miss its fulfillment standing before them.
