CommentTheophylact of OhridPublic domainJohn 6:1–14

This passage confounds the Manicheans, who say that bread and all such things were created by an evil Deity. The Son of the good God, Jesus Christ, multiplied the loaves. Therefore they could not have been naturally evil; a good God would never have multiplied what was evil.

Reproduced in full. Translation: Oxford 1841 (Newman), public domain (Public domain).
