26 Jesus replied, "I tell you the truth, you want to be with me because I fed you, not because you understood the miraculous signs.

Matthew Henry's Commentary on John 6:26

Commentary on John 6:22-27

(Read John 6:22-27)

Instead of answering the inquiry how he came there, Jesus blamed their asking. The utmost earnestness should be employed in seeking salvation, in the use of appointed means; yet it is to be sought only as the gift of the Son of man. Him the Father has sealed, proved to be God. He declared the Son of man to be the Son of God with power.
