43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.
43 "Stop grumbling among yourselves," Jesus answered.
43 Jesus answered them, "Do not grumble among yourselves.
43 Jesus said, "Don't bicker among yourselves over me.
43 Jesus therefore answered and said to them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.
43 But Jesus replied, "Stop complaining about what I said.
25 And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.
25 He did not need any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each person.
25 and needed no one to bear witness about man, for he himself knew what was in man.
25 He didn't need any help in seeing right through them.
25 and had no need that anyone should testify of man, for He knew what was in man.
25 No one needed to tell him about human nature, for he knew what was in each person's heart.
(Read John 2:23-25)
Our Lord knew all men, their nature, dispositions, affections, designs, so as we do not know any man, not even ourselves. He knows his crafty enemies, and all their secret projects; his false friends, and their true characters. He knows who are truly his, knows their uprightness, and knows their weaknesses. We know what is done by men; Christ knows what is in them, he tries the heart. Beware of a dead faith, or a formal profession: carnal, empty professors are not to be trusted, and however men impose on others or themselves, they cannot impose on the heart-searching God.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on John 6:43
Commentary on John 6:36-46
(Read John 6:36-46)
The discovery of their guilt, danger, and remedy, by the teaching of the Holy Spirit, makes men willing and glad to come, and to give up every thing which hinders applying to him for salvation. The Father's will is, that not one of those who were given to the Son, should be rejected or lost by him. No one will come, till Divine grace has subdued, and in part changed his heart; therefore no one who comes will ever be cast out. The gospel finds none willing to be saved in the humbling, holy manner, made known therein; but God draws with his word and the Holy Ghost; and man's duty is to hear and learn; that is to say, to receive the grace offered, and consent to the promise. None had seen the Father but his beloved Son; and the Jews must expect to be taught by his inward power upon their minds, and by his word, and the ministers whom he sent among them.
