Exodus 16:2-4, 12-15
Moses and Aaron. The Israelites said to them, “Would
that we had died at the LORD’s hand in the land of
Egypt, as we sat by our fleshpots and ate our fill of
bread! But you had to lead us into this desert to make
the whole community die of famine!” Then the LORD
said to Moses, “I will now rain down bread from
heaven for you. Each day the people are to go out and
gather their daily portion; thus will I test them, to see
whether they follow my instructions or not. “I have
heard the grumbling of the Israelites. Tell them: In the
evening twilight you shall eat flesh, and in the morning
you shall have your fill of bread, so that you may know
that I, the LORD, am your God.” In the evening quail
came up and covered the camp. In the morning a dew
lay all about the camp, and when the dew evaporated,
there on the surface of the desert were fine flakes like
hoarfrost on the ground.
On seeing it, the Israelites asked one another, “What is
this?” for they did not know what it was. But Moses
told them, “This is the bread that the LORD has given
you to eat.”
~ Thanks be to God
6:24-35
disciples were there, they themselves got into
boats and came to Capernaum looking for
Jesus. And when they found him across the sea
they said to him, “Rabbi, when did you get
here?” Jesus answered them and said, “Amen,
amen, I say to you, you are looking for me not
because you saw signs but because you ate the
loaves and were filled. Do not work for food that
perishes but for the food that endures for eternal
life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on
him the Father, God, has set his seal.”
So they said to him, “What can we do to
accomplish the works of God?” Jesus answered
and said to them, “This is the work of God, that
you believe in the one he sent.”
So they said to him, “What sign can you do, that
we may see and believe in you? What can you
do?
Our ancestors ate manna in the desert, as it is
written: He gave them bread from heaven to
eat.” So Jesus said to them, “Amen, amen, I say
to you, it was not Moses who gave the bread
from heaven; my Father gives you the true bread
from heaven.
For the bread of God is that which comes down
from heaven and gives life to the world.” So they
said to him, “Sir, give us this bread
always.” Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of
life; whoever comes to me will never hunger,
and whoever believes in me will never thirst.”
The Gospel of the Lord.
~ Praise to You Lord Jesus Christ.
Second Reading:
Eph 4:17, 20-24
Brothers and sisters:
that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do,
in the futility of their minds;
that is not how you learned Christ, assuming that
you have heard of him and were taught in him, as
truth is in Jesus, that you should put away the old
self of your former way of life, corrupted through
deceitful desires, and be renewed in the spirit of
your minds, and put on the new self,
created in God’s way in righteousness and holiness
of truth.
