Another temptation, Satan had suggested giving
to Jesus the kingdoms of this world and their
glory, if He would only fall down and worship him.
Jesus rejected the offer. In the case of feeding the
people, they wanted to make Him king (John 6:15)
But this offer did not come from the Father, so
Jesus would not have it.
In time, He would become Israel's king, not of a
temporary kingdom but one of eternl life.
The next day, Jesus presented His claims as the
Bread of Heaven, which if any man would eat,
would cause him to live forever (John 6:58)
