VERSE (15) -
Joh 2:24,25 Heb 4:13

SEV Biblia, Chapter 6:15

¶ Y sabiendo Jess que habían de venir para arrebatarle, y hacerle rey, volvi a retirarse al monte, l solo.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - John 6:15

Verse 15. Take him by force, to make him a king] The
Jews had often suffered by famine in those times in which their enemies were permitted to prevail over them; but, finding that Jesus had such power as to multiply a few loaves to feed thousands, they took it for granted that while he was at their head no evil could possibly happen to them, and therefore were determined immediately to proclaim him king, and rid themselves at once of Herod and the Romans. Our Lord perceiving this, either by some words which they had dropped, or by his penetration of their hearts, retired before the project had been fully formed, or could be put into execution. It was not till a considerable time afterwards that even the disciples fully understood that his kingdom was not of this world.

Into a mountain] That on which he was with his disciples previously to his working this miracle: see chap. vi. 3.

St. Matthew, Matt. xiv. 22, 23, and Mark, Mark vi. 45, 46, say that, before this, Jesus constrained his disciples to embark in the vessel, and go along the sea coast towards Capernaum, or Bethsaida-see here chap. vi. 17, and the note on Mark vi. 45; and that, after they were gone, he dismissed the multitudes, having, no doubt, given them such advices as the nature of the case required; after which he went into the mountain to pray.

Worldly wisdom would have said, "Declare thyself king: yield to the desires of the people: this will be the readiest way of converting the Jews." No. Jesus must die for the sin of the world.-No man's heart can be turned to God by outward pomp or splendour-no saving change can be brought about by any might or any power, but by the Spirit of the Lord of hosts. Zech. iv. 6.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 15. When Jesus therefore perceived , etc.] As being the omniscient God, who knew their hearts, and the secret thoughts and purposes of them; or, as man, understood by their words and gestures: that they would come and take him by force, and make him a king ; that they had determined, as the Arabic version renders it; or had it in their mind, as the Persic; to gather about him as one man, and seize him in a violent manner, whether he would or not; and proclaim him the King Messiah; place him at the head of them, to deliver the nation from the Roman yoke, and set up a temporal kingdom, in which they might hope for great secular advantages: and they might the rather be induced to take such a step, since, by this miracle, they could not doubt of his being able to support such an army of men, and to succeed in the enterprise; for he that could do this, what was it he could not do? but, he departed again into a mountain, himself alone ; he left the company directly, upon this resolution of theirs, and even took not his disciples with him, who were in the same way of thinking about a temporal kingdom, as the people, and might encourage them in this undertaking: the mountain Christ went into, very probably was the same he went up to before; the reasons of his departure, were to prevent the attempt; to show that his kingdom was not of this world; to teach his followers to forsake the honours and riches of this world, for his sake; and to let them know, that those who sought only for a temporal redeemer, were unworthy of his presence: and also he went away alone, for the sake of secret retirement, and private prayer; and it may be chiefly, that he prayed that God would open the minds of these men, and particularly the disciples; that they might be convinced of their mistaken notions of him as a temporal prince: some copies add, and he prayed there; the Syriac, Ethiopic, and Persic versions leave out the word again; and the latter, contrary to all others, renders it, Christ departed from the mountain alone.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 15-21 - Here were
Christ's disciples in the way of duty, and Christ was prayin for them; yet they were in distress. There may be perils an afflictions of this present time, where there is an interest in Christ Clouds and darkness often surround the children of the light and of the day. They see Jesus walking on the sea. Even the approaches of comfor and deliverance often are so mistaken, as to become the occasions of fear. Nothing is more powerful to convince sinners than that word, " am Jesus whom thou persecutest;" nothing more powerful to comfor saints than this, "I am Jesus whom thou lovest." If we have receive Christ Jesus the Lord, though the night be dark, and the wind high, ye we may comfort ourselves, we shall be at the shore before long.
