摩西说：“以下是耶和华的吩咐，‘把两升的吗哪存留起来，直到世世代代，以便你们的子子孙孙可以看见上帝带你们离开埃及时在旷野赐给你们的食物。’”

耶稣却说：“我实实在在地告诉你们，不是摩西从天上赐给了你们粮食，而是我父将天上的真粮食赐给你们。因为上帝赐的粮就是从天降下、赐生命给世人的那位。”他们说：“先生，求你把这种粮食天天赐给我们吧。”耶稣说：“我就是生命的粮，到我这里来的人必定不饿，信我的人必永远不渴。但我对你们说过，你们虽然亲眼看见我，仍然不信。凡父赐给我的人，必到我这里来。到我这里来的，我总不丢弃他。因为我从天上下来，不是要成就自己的旨意，而是要成就差我来者的旨意。差我来者的旨意是，祂所赐给我的，我一个也不失掉，在末日我要叫他们复活。因为我父的旨意是要叫一切看见儿子并相信的人得到永生，在末日，我要叫他们复活。”犹太人听见耶稣说自己是从天上降下来的粮，就小声议论，说：“这不是约瑟的儿子耶稣吗？祂的父母，我们都认识，祂现在怎么能说自己是从天上降下来的呢？”耶稣回答他们说：“你们不用议论纷纷。如果不是差我来的父吸引人到我这里来，没有人能来。到我这里来的，在末日，我要叫他复活。先知书上这样说，‘他们都要受上帝的训诲’，这里是指凡听从父的教导又去效法的人，都会到我这里来。这并不是说有人见过父，唯独从上帝而来的那位见过父。我实实在在地告诉你们，信我的人有永生，因为我是生命的粮。你们的祖先在旷野吃过吗哪，还是死了。但这是从天上降下来的粮，人吃了就不死。我就是天上降下来的生命之粮，人吃了这粮，必永远活着。我将要赐下的粮就是我的肉，是为了让世人得到生命。”犹太人开始彼此争论，说：“这个人怎么能把自己的肉给我们吃呢？”耶稣说：“我实实在在地告诉你们，如果你们不吃人子的肉，不喝人子的血，就没有生命。吃我肉、喝我血的人有永生，在末日，我要叫他复活。因为我的肉是真粮食，我的血是真饮品，吃我肉、喝我血的人常在我里面，我也常在他里面。永活的父差我来，我是靠祂而活。同样，吃我肉的人也靠我而活。我是从天上降下来的真粮，吃这粮的人必永远活着，不像你们的祖先，虽然吃过吗哪，最后还是死了。”
