John 6:55 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

For my flesh is meat indeed. — Better, for My flesh is true food, and My blood is true drink. This verse further explains that he who eateth the flesh and drinketh the blood hath eternal life, for he has the true elements of life. It is an answer, too, to the question. How can this Man give us His flesh to eat? (John 6:52.)
