Bible verses about "bread" | Living_Oracles

⁵⁵ for my flesh is truly meat, and my blood is truly drink. ⁵⁶ He who eats my flesh, and drinks my blood, abides in me, and I abide in him. ⁵⁷ As the Father lives, who sent me; and I live by the Father; even so he, who feeds on me, shall live by me. ⁵⁸ This is the bread which descended from heaven. It is not like what your fathers eat, for they died: he that eats this bread, shall live for ever. ⁵⁹ This discourse he spoke in the synagogue, teaching in Capernaum.

It is not like what your fathers eat, for they died: he that eats this bread, shall live for ever. ⁵⁹ This discourse he spoke in the synagogue, teaching in Capernaum. ⁶⁰ Many of his disciples having heard it, said, This is hard doctrine; who can understand it? ⁶¹ Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at it, said to them, Does this offend you? ⁶² What if you should see the Son of Man reascending thither, where he was before? ⁶³ It is the Spirit that quickens; the flesh profits nothing. The words which I speak to you, are spirit and life. ⁶⁴ But there are some of you who do not believe. (For Jesus knew from the beginning, who they were that did not believe, and who he was that would betray him.) ⁶⁵ He added, Therefore, I said to you, that no man can come to me, unless it be given him by my Father. ⁶⁶ From this time, many of his disciples withdrew, and accompanied him no longer. ⁶⁷ Then said Jesus to the twelve, Will you also go away? ⁶⁸ Simon Peter answered, Master, to whom should we go?

³² Jesus then said to them, Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread of heaven: but my Father gives you the true bread of heaven: ³³ for the bread of God is that which descends from heaven, and gives life to the world. ³⁴ They said, therefore, to him, Master, give us always this bread. ³⁵ Jesus answered, I am the bread of life. He who comes to me, shall never hunger; and he who believes on me, shall never thirst.
