JESUS 1: I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.
NARRATOR: Jesus’ listeners disputed among themselves.
THE JEWS: How can this man give us his flesh to eat?
JESUS 2: Very truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day; for my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink.
JESUS 3: Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood abide in me, and I in them. Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever eats me will live because of me.
JESUS 4: This is the bread that came down from heaven, not like that which your ancestors ate, and they died. Those who eat this bread will live forever.
