Hundred Thousand Men for Forty Years together with Manna that fell from Heaven Canst thou do any thing greater than Moses did Jesus answered them verily I say unto you Moses did not give you the true Bread from Heaven but 't is my Father that giveth it and this Bread is he that came down from Heaven and giveth Life unto the World They said unto him Lord give us this Bread for ever He answered them I am the Bread of Life he that cometh to me shall never hunger and he that believeth on me shall never thirst By which words we are to understand That Jesus is the spiritual Food of those Souls that eat him believing on him by a lively Faith which works by Love and by thus eating him they obtain that happy Life with which they shall be fully and eternally satisfied Then he adds that altho' they had seen and been witnesses of so many Miracles which he had done yet they did not believe on him and by reason of their Infidelity they should lose the great advantage which all those which his Father should bring unto him should enjoy viz. to be raised up at the Last Day and inherit eternal Life Nevertheless the Jews murmured against him saying Is not this the Son of Joseph Do not we know his Father and Mother Why then doth he tell us that he came down from Heaven Jesus was so far from mollifying or recanting these Truths tho' they were offended at them that on the contrary he confirms them more strongly and having proved from Scripture that they should be taught of God that all whom his Father teacheth shall come unto him and that they themselves did not come unto him because they did not understand the Voice of him that sent him He tells them again that he is the Bread of Life that the Manna did not keep them from dying who eat of it but his flesh was the true Bread that came down from Heaven which giveth Life to all that eat of it These last words made them the more averse to him and they disputed among themselves how he could give them his Flesh to eat Nevertheless he pursued his Discourse and tells them that his flesh is meat indeed and his blood is drink indeed that they have no Life in them if they eat not his Flesh and drink his Blood and that he that feeds on them shall be raised up at the Last Day and obtain eternal Life Lastly he teaches them what great effects his Body should work in the Souls of all those that receive it worthily saying to them He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood dwelleth in me and I in him and he shall live by me as I live by my Father which hath sent me These sublime Truths which he taught in the Synagogue at Capernaum offended many of the Jews yea several of his Disciples having hard them said These words are very heard and unintelligible who can patiently hear such Doctrin as this much less believe it But they understood them in a literal which were meant in a Spiritual sense only They thought saith St. Austin that if they eat his flesh they must cut it in pieces as the flesh which is sold in the Market is They were not sensible that besides the manner of eating Jesus Christ by Faith they might also really eat him in the Eucharist under the Figure of Bread a way wherein there is nothing affrighting But instead of believing all that he who was the Truth it self said unto them by attending to his Explication of what they did not understand they were offended at his Speech and withdrawing themselves from following him would be his Disciples no longer The Apostles were wiser than these deserters for Jesus having said unto them Will ye also leave me Peter answered for them all Lord to whom should we go thou hast the words of Eternal Life and we believe and know that thou art the Christ the Son of God Nevertheless among these Twelve which adhered so firmly to him there was one which should afterwards betray him which was Judas Iscariot Jesus knowing it foretold the Infidelity and Treachery of that Apostle saying Have not I chosen you Twelve And yet one of you is a Devil and a Wicked Traytor IV. The Pharisees complain that his Apostles did eat with un-washed Hands Jo. 6.4 The Passover was nigh at hand when Jesus multiplyed the Bread and made the former Discourse It appears by this Relation of St. John that he went not up to Jerusalem to Solemnize that Feast according to the Custom for that Evangelist says that after this he remained in Galilee not daring to go into Judea because the Jews sought to put him to Death Then the Scribes and Pharisees which were of Jerusalem came unto him Matt. 1● 1 -20. Mar. 7.1 -23. and having observed that his Disciples did not scruple to eat their Meat with unwashen Hands they complained of them to him Not that there was any commandment of the Law enjoyning them to wash their Hands before they eat but the Pharisees had annexed several Humane Traditions to the Law which they were more exact in the observance of than the Law it self For this reason it was that they said unto Jesus Why do thy Disciples break the Tradition of the Elders in not washing their Hands when they eat their Food Jesus asked them again Why do you your selves transgress the Law of the Lord by following your Traditions As for example Why do you perswade Children to think that they do a Work acceptable to God in giving him Offerings altho' they suffer their Father and Mother to be in want thus making them to prefer an Humane Tradition before the Commandment of God which injoyns Children so expresly to Honour and Support those from whom they have received Life Then he shews them that notwithstanding all their Ceremonial observances they wore the Hypocrites of whom God speaks by the Prophet Isaias This People honoureth me with their Lips Isai 29.13 but their Heart is far from me Lastly he calls to the People and saith unto them with a loud Voice Hear ye this and understand my sayings Nothing from without a Man entring into his Body can defile him but that which cometh out of the Man defileth the Man Upon this his Disciples came unto him and told him that the Pharisees were offended at his Words But he answered them Every Plant that my Heavenly Father hath not planted shall be rooted up Let them alone they are blind leaders of such as are as blind as themselves with whom they shall fall into the Ditch and so perish eternally together Then he went into an House and his Disciples desired him to explain to them his meaning in those Words Nothing that entreth into a Man defileth the Man but that which cometh out of the Man defileth the Man He unfolded the Parable to them and taught them that every thing that entreth into the Body

Lamb that was eaten and to the Solemnity which began with the Sacrifice of that Lamb Whence it comes to pass that we often meet with such Expressions as these in the Gospel to Eat Sacrifice and Keep the Passover As the Bondage of Aegypt from which God delivered the Jews was a Figure of Man's Slavery to Sin from which he was about to free Men so the Lamb whose Blood saved the Israelites is a Figure of Jesus Christ who is called The True Passover because 't is by his Blood that we are truly redeemed And for this Reason it is that he would dye at the Passover to fulfil by his Sacrifice the great Mysteries which were represented by all the Jewish Ceremonies XXII Jesus sups with his Disciples This great Feast of the Passover being near Matth. 26 17-20 the Disciples asked their Master Where he would eat the Passover Jesus immediately sent Peter and John to Jerusalem and tells them That as soon as they are entred into the City they should find a Man bearing a Pitcher of Water let them follow him and where-ever he enters let them tell the Master of the House That he intends to keep the Passover at his House with his Disciples and he will shew you saith he a large upper Room furnished and prepared there prepare all Things necessary for us Peter and John did as they were commanded and in the Evening he came thither with his Twelves Apostles where at the Hour appointed they sat down to eat the Paschal Lamb. He saith then to his Disciples With much earnestness have I desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer for I say unto you That I will not eat any more thereof till it be fulfilled in the Kingdom of God i. e. in Heaven where not only the Passover but also all the other Mysteries shall have a full accomplishment Then he taketh a Cup and giving Thanks said to them Take this and divide it among you for I say unto you That I will not drink any more of the Fruit of the Vine until the Kingdom of God shall come XXIII Jesus washes his Disciples Feet John 13 1-15 From this Time Jesus had his Death continually in his Thoughts which seems to have been appointed at this Feast of the Passover which signifies a Passage to put him in Mind that his Hour was come wherein he was to pass out of this World to his Father He knew that the Devil had put into the Heart of Judas Iscariot a Design to betray him but before he was delivered into the Hands of his Enemies he was desirous to give his Disciples whom he had always loved and would love unto the end a signal Testimony of his Love wherefore he riseth from the Table layeth aside his Garments takes a Towel pours Water into a Bason and knowing that his Father had given all Things into his Hands and that he was come from God and went to God he goes about to wash his Apostles Feet and to wipe them with the Towel he had about him Peter could not endure this great Debasement of his Master and says unto him in a Surprize Why wilt thou wash my Feet Lord And although Jesus answered him Thou knowest not now what I do but thou shalt know afterward yet he still asserted Thou shalt never wash my Feet But because his Master told him That if he washed him not he should have no part in him he chose rather to see him do so mean an Office than be separated from him and therefore replyed Lord not only my Feet but my Hands and my Feet Jesus said unto him He that hath been washed already hath no need to wash any part of him but his Feet and ye are clean but not all Under which Exception he marked out Judas who being his Disciple should betray him This Answer makes it credible that Jesus did wash his Apostles Feet not only to give them a signal Example of his Humility but to shew us that although we are purified by Baptism yet in this Life we have continual need to cleanse our Affections which are daily engaged in Human Affairs in the same manner as our Feet how clean soever the rest of our Body is do continually gather Soil and Filth and therefore only need washing After he had washed his Apostles Feet he took his Garments and sitting down at the Table he saith unto them Know ye what I have done unto you ye call me Lord and Master and 't is reasonable you should for so I am if I then your Lord and Master have washed your Feet ye also ought to wash one anothers Feet For I have given you an Example that ye may consider upon it and do as I have done unto you XXIV Jesus appoints the Eucharist and foretells Judas's Treachery After this they again returned to their Supper Matth. 26 26-29 Mark 14 22-25 Luke 22 19-29 1 Cor. 11 23-25 which being almost ended Jesus who having washed their Feet had as it were prepared them for the Sacrament which he intended to institute at the same Time wherefore he took Bread blessed it by giving of Thanks brake it and gave it to them saying Take eat this is my Body which is given for you do this in remembrance of me Likewise he took the Cup gave Thanks and gave it to them saying Drink ye all of this for this is my Blood the Blood of the New Testament which is shed for many for the Remission of Sins Joyn this also with the Bread in remembrance of me Matth. 26 20-25 Mar. 14 18-21 Luke 22 21-23 John 13 21-32 Jesus then suffered himself to fall into a Trouble and Discomposure of Mind either at the Prospect of the Death which he was shortly to undergo or at the Thoughts of the monstrous perfideousness of Judas and said unto the Apostles Verily verily I say unto you that one of you who sitteth at Table and eateth with me shall betray me These Words not only astonished them but grieved them all and every one began to say Is it I Lord He answered them One of you Twelve that dippeth with me in the Dish shall betray me Instead the Son of Man goeth to suffer Death according as it is appointed concerning him in Holy Scripture but wo unto that Man by whom he is betrayed it were better for that Man that he had never been born They knew not who it was of whom he spake and therefore questioned among themselves who it was Peter seeing John who was the beloved Disciple leaning upon Jesus's Breast beckened to him to ask Jesus who it was of whom he spake Jesus then answered him He it is to whom I shall give a Sop when I have dipped it Judas then boldly asked his Master Is it I Jesus said Yes And having dipped the Sop gave it to him When Judas had received the Sop the Devil entred into him to embolden him in the execution of that wicked Design which he
