John 6:26

6:26 Jesus replied, ¹  “I tell you the solemn truth, ²  you are looking for me not because you saw miraculous signs, but because you ate all the loaves of bread you wanted. ³ 

John 20:20

20:20 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. Then the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. ⁴ 

[6:26]  ¹ tn Grk “answered and said to them.”

[6:26]  ² tn Grk “Truly, truly, I say to you.”

[6:26]  ³ tn Grk “because you ate of the loaves of bread and were filled.”

[20:20]  ⁴ sn When the disciples recognized Jesus (now referred to as the Lord, cf. Mary’s words in v. 18) they were suddenly overcome with joy. This was a fulfillment of Jesus’ words to the disciples in the Farewell Discourse (16:20-22) that they would have sorrow while the world rejoiced, but that their sorrow would be turned to lasting joy when they saw him again.
