G1510–εἰμί–eimi

Our forefathers ate the manna in the Desert, as it is written, `He gave them bread out of Heaven to eat'."

ἐστιν estin “it is”

For God's bread is that which comes down out of Heaven and gives Life to the world."

ἐστιν estin “is”

"I am the bread of Life," replied Jesus; "he who comes to me shall never hunger, and he who believes in me shall never, never thirst.

εἰμι eimi “am”

And this is the will of Him who sent me, that of all that He has given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it to life on the last day.

ἐστιν estin “is”

For this is my Father's will, that every one who fixes his gaze on the Son of God and believes in Him should have the Life of the Ages, and I will raise him to life on the last day."

ἐστιν estin “is”

Now the Jews began to find fault about Him because of His claiming to be the bread which came down out of Heaven.

εἰμι eimi “am”

They kept asking, "Is not this man Joseph's son? Is he not Jesus, whose father and mother we know? What does he mean by now saying, `I have come down out of Heaven'?"

ἐστιν estin “is”

It stands written in the Prophets, `And they shall all of them be taught by God'. Every one who listens to the Father and learns from Him comes to me.

ἔστιν estin “It is”ἔσονται esontai “they will be”

No one has ever seen the Father--except Him who is from God. He has seen the Father.

ὢν ōn “being”

I am the bread of Life.

εἰμι eimi “am”

Here is the bread that comes down out of Heaven that a man may eat it and not die.

ἐστιν estin “is”

I am the living bread come down out of Heaven. If a man eats this bread, he shall live for ever. Moreover the bread which I will give is my flesh given for the life of the world."

εἰμι eimi “am”ἐστιν estin “is”

For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.

ἐστιν estin “is”ἐστιν estin “is”

This is the bread which came down out of Heaven; it is unlike that which your forefathers ate--for they ate and yet died. He who eats this bread shall live for ever."

ἐστιν estin “is”

Many therefore of His disciples, when they heard it, said, "This is hard to accept. Who can listen to such teaching?"

ἐστιν estin “is”

"Does this seem incredible to you? What then if you were to see the Son of Man ascending again where He was before?

ἦν ēn “He was”

It is the spirit which gives Life. The flesh confers no benefit whatever. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and are Life.

ἐστιν estin “is”ἐστιν estin “are”ἐστιν. estin “they are.”

But there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who those were that did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him.

εἰσὶν eisin “they are”εἰσὶν eisin “are”ἐστιν estin “it is”

So He added, "That is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it be granted him by the Father."

ᾖ ē “it shall”

And we have come to believe and know that *you* are indeed the Holy One of God."

εἶ ei “are”

"Did not I choose you--the Twelve?" said Jesus, "and even of you one is a devil."

ἐστιν; estin “is?”

He alluded to Judas, the son of Simon the Iscariot. For he it was who, though one of the Twelve, was afterwards to betray Him.

ὢν ōn “being”

But the Jewish Festival of the Tent-Pitching was approaching.

ἦν ēn “Was”

"My time," replied Jesus, "has not yet come, but for you any time is suitable.

ἐστιν estin “is”

It is impossible for the world to hate you; but me it does hate, because I give testimony concerning it that its conduct is evil.

ἐστιν. estin “are.”
