Jesus: I Am the Bread of Life Part II
Introduction:
In the first part of this study, we looked at the significance of the name I AM, the name the Jews recognized as God's name and the name Jesus used to identify Himself as being God. In this part of the study we will look at a second name, the Bread of Life.
Bread is the principle food of the East. It is estimated that three-quarters of the people of the Orient depend entirely on bread or products made from wheat or barley flour as their food.
In this culture, the term, "eating bread", is equivalent to eating a meal. To the religious Jew of Jesus' time, there was an attitude of sacredness to bread. Bread is always broken, never sliced. To cut bread would be cutting life.
Although leavened bread is the usual form eaten, unleavened bread is also common place. Leaven is considered a symbol of sin, so when purity was demanded, the religious Jews always ate "unleavened" bread, going so far as to cleanse their houses of any leaven.
In the Orient, those who share a meal are bound together by a solemn covenant of peace and loyalty. Thus the expression "bread and salt" becomes sacred. This helps us understand why the religious leaders were so upset with Jesus for eating with "sinners."

Question 7 of 8
7. Question
In bringing up the subject of manna, the people were, of course, referring to the years God had provided it for the Children of Israel while they wandered in the wilderness.
When the Israelites had complained about lack of food, the Lord told Moses, He would rain down bread from heaven. This “bread” of heaven was like frost on the ground. Each day the people gathered enough food for a day.
When the people saw it, they called it, “manna,” which meant “What is it?”
The Lord provided this bread from heaven for the forty years the Israelites wandered in the wilderness. When they produced their first crops in the Promised Land, the rain of manna stopped.
Jesus continued:
The Scripture: John 6: 57-58
“This (Jesus) is the bread that came down from heaven. Your forefathers ate manna and died, but he who feeds on this bread will live forever.”
16. Where did Jesus say He came from?
17. What happened to those who ate the manna in the desert?
18. What would happen to everyone who ate the bread Jesus offered?

“While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to His disciples, saying, ‘Take and eat; this is My body.’ Then He took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, ‘Drink from it, all of you. This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for man for the forgiveness of sins.”
