In this lecture, Don Carson examines Jesus as the “Bread of Life” in John 6 who offers eternal fulfillment through his death and resurrection. Carson emphasizes that true belief in Jesus is the work of God and the way to eternal life. Jesus’s sacrifice is portrayed as the ultimate sign of his authority and the source of salvation for the world. He teaches the following: The contextual significance of bread in first-century Palestine Jesus’s role as the true manna and its parallel to the Old Testament account of manna in the wilderness Jesus’s miracles are meant to demonstrate his ability to provide for our needs Jesus is the ultimate source of eternal life, not just physical sustenance God the Father’s role in drawing people to Jesus and ensuring their salvation Why Jesus’s death and resurrection are central to the metaphor of Jesus as the living bread Why Jesus’s role as the Bread of Life is central to understanding his mission
