John 6:22 - 44

Many of the over 5,000 people who experienced the miracle of being fed on the hillside by Jesus continued to follow Him the following day.  Jesus rightly observed that they were seeking to obtain further nourishment and sustenance from His miraculous provision.  He encouraged these folk to seek after a greater supply from God, the true bread that had come down from heaven.  By partaking in that Bread of Life, they would never hunger again.  This appealed to the crowd; but when they discovered that Jesus referred to Himself, they quickly dismissed the notion that God would present His Chosen One in such a person.
