And Jesus said unto them,
I am the bread of life: he that comes to me shall never hunger; and he that believes on me shall never thirst.
All Commentaries on John 6:35 Go To John 6
Theophilus of Antioch
AD 184
He does not say, I am the bread of nourishment, but of life, for, whereas all things brought death, Christ has quickened us by Himself. But the life here, is not our common life, but that which is not cut short by death: He that comes to Me shall never hunger; and, He that believes in Me shall never thirst.
Or, shall never hunger or thirst, i.e. shall never be wearied of hearing the word of God, and shall never thirst as to the understanding: as though He had not the water of baptism, and the sanctification of the Spirit.
