65 He went on to say, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has enabled them."
65 And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.
65 And he said, "This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by the Father."
65 He went on to say, "This is why I told you earlier that no one is capable of coming to me on his own. You get to me only as a gift from the Father."
65 And He said, "Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father."
65 Then he said, "That is why I said that people can't come to me unless the Father gives them to me."

Commentary on John 6:60-65
(Read John 6:60-65)
The human nature of Christ had not before been in heaven, but being God and man, that wondrous Person was truly said to have come down from heaven. The Messiah's kingdom was not of this world; and they were to understand by faith, what he had said of a spiritual living upon him, and his fulness. As without the soul of man the flesh is of no value, so without the quickening Spirit of God all forms of religion are dead and worthless. He who made this provision for our souls, alone can teach us these things, and draw us unto Christ, that we may live by faith in him. Let us apply to Christ, thankful that it is declared that every one who is willing to come unto him shall be made welcome.
