John 6:13

6:13 So they gathered them up and filled twelve baskets with broken pieces from the five barley loaves ¹  left over by the people who had eaten.

John 6:26

6:26 Jesus replied, ²  “I tell you the solemn truth, ³  you are looking for me not because you saw miraculous signs, but because you ate all the loaves of bread you wanted. ⁴ 

¹ sn Note that the fish mentioned previously (in John 6:9) are not emphasized here, only the five barley loaves. This is easy to understand, however, because the bread is of primary importance for the author in view of Jesus’ upcoming discourse on the Bread of Life.

² tn Grk “answered and said to them.”

³ tn Grk “Truly, truly, I say to you.”

⁴ tn Grk “because you ate of the loaves of bread and were filled.”
