George Leo Haydock, on John 6:15

“Jesus therefore, when he knew that they would come to take him by force, and make him king, fled again into the mountain himself alone.”

“St. John here corrects what relates to Jesus, and then what relates to the disciples. For if we attend to the order of time, the apostles got into the boat before Jesus went to the mountain. But, in matters of this nature, it is usual for the historians to follow their own choice. (Polus, Synop. critic.)”
