They had resolved to obey God and to serve him, but they were confused by the absurdity of body and blood being eaten and drunk. At the height of their bewilderment the Lord mercifully opened the minds of his faithful followers, to grasp the parable of the Bread of Life.
Walikuwa wameelewa kumtii Mungu na kumtumikia, bali walichanganyikiwa na upuzi wa mwili na damu kuliwa na kunywewa. Kwenye kilele cha bumbuazi wao, Bwana kwa huruma zake akafunua akili za wafuasi wake waaminifu, ili waweze kuelewa mfano wa Mkate wa Uzima.
