John 6:33 Douay-Rheims

For the bread of God is that which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life to the world.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

(Tr. xxv. 13.) As if He said, That manna was the type of this food, of which I just now spoke; and which all my miracles refer to. You like my miracles, you despise what is signified by them. This bread which God gives, and which this manna represented, is the Lord Jesus Christ, as we read next, For the bread of God is He which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.
