John 6:41 Douay-Rheims

The Jews therefore murmured at him, because he had said: I am the living bread which came down from heaven.

Bede the Venerable

c. A.D. 672–735 Patristic

He uses the plural, In the Prophets, because all the Prophets being filled with one and the same spirit, their prophecies, though different, all tended to the same end; and with whatever any one of them says, all the rest agree; as with the prophecy of Joel, All shall be taught of God. (Joel 2:23)
