Just out of curiosity, this Greek-ignorant brother would like to know if the same word for come is used throughout this passage (v. 37 to the end of the chapter). --Joe! |

Greetings Joe! Good question! There are actually several different verbs. They are, in order of appearance: John 6:37 - "shall come" is the Future, Active, Indicative, 3rd, Singular of 'heko'. John 6:37 - "the one who comes" is the Present, Deponent, Participle, Masculine, Singular, Accusative of 'erchomai'. John 6:38 - "I have come down" is the Perfect, Active, Indicative, 1st, Singular of 'katabaino'. John 6:41 - "that came down" is the Aorist, Active, Participle, Masculine, Singular, Nomative of 'katabaino'. John 6:44 - "to come" is the Aorist, Active, Infinitive of 'erchomai'. John 6:45 - "comes" is the Present, Deponent, Indictive, 3rd, Plural of 'erchomai'. John 6:50 - "which comes down" is the Present, Active, Participle, Masculine, Singular, Nomative of 'katabaino'. John 6:51 - "that came down" is the Aorist, Active, Participle, Masculine, Singular, Nomative of 'katabaino'. John 6:58 - "which came down" is the Aorist, Active, Participle, Masculine, Singular, Nomative of 'katabaino'. John 6:65 - "come" is the Aorist, Active, Infinitive of 'erchomai'. I don't know that there is any special significance to the variation. 'Erchomai' seems to be used mostly in terms of the individuals who come to Christ. The only unusual features that I noticed about John 6:37 is that the pronoun is neuter and that an unusual word for 'come' is used there. I'm not sure it means anything. I just wanted to check it out some more. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
