is the bread that has come down from heaven, so that a person
may eat from it and not die.

6:52 Then the Jews who were hostile to Jesus began to argue with one another, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”

6:54 The one who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.
6:55 For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.
6:56 The one who eats my flesh and drinks my blood resides in me, and I in him.
6:57 Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so the one who consumes me will live because of me.
6:58 This is the bread that came down from heaven; it is not like the bread your ancestors ate, but then later died. The one who eats this bread will live forever.”
