Summary: | John 6 : 41-65 has provoked many theories about Jesus' intentions for this teaching. These theories range from a debate about cannibalism to the Fourth Gospel's substitute for an account of the Last Supper. This paper sets his words within the context of Passover, a recurring theme in John. Jesus is telling his audience, "You have to accept my coming death as that of the Passover lamb, to be offered for yourselves and for the whole world." |
