Cover Explanation: The Gospel According to John


The cover image, Living Bread visualizes Jesus’ words in John 6:49-58, focusing on verse 58, “This is the bread that came down from heaven, not like the bread the fathers ate, and died. Whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.”

A pair of hands in the heavens reach out over the world.  Bread comes from the left hand.  Blood comes from the right hand.  All are invited to feed on Christ and his work for us.  As Saint Augustine wrote, “Believe, and you have eaten already.”
