John 6:25 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Rabbi, when camest thou hither? — This discourse took place in the synagogue at Capernaum (John 6:59). They are amazed to find Him here. When and how could He have come? He had not gone in the boat with the disciples, and no other boats had crossed but those in which they themselves came. On the title Rabbi, see Note on John 1:38.
