51. I am the living bread which came down from heaven: If any man eat of this bread, he fhall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

52. The Jews therefore ftrove amongst themselves, faying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

53. Then Jefus faid unto them, Verily, verily, 1 fay unto you, Except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

55. For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

56. He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

57. As the living Father hath fent me, and I live by the Father; fo he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

62. What and if ye fhall fee the Son of man afcend up where he was before?

63. It is the Spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing; the words that I speak unto you, they are fpirit, and they are life.
