People eat bread to satisfy physical hunger and to sustain physical life. We can satisfy spiritual hunger and sustain spiritual life only by a right relationship with Jesus Christ. No wonder he called himself the bread of life. But bread must be eaten to sustain life, and Christ must be invited into our daily walk to sustain spiritual life.--- Life Application Study Bible notesJesus is the “bread of life” in the sense that he nourishes people spiritually and satisfies the deep spiritual longings of their souls. In that sense, those who trust in him “shall not hunger”: that is, their spiritual longing to know God will be satisfied (cf John 4:14 for a similar discussion of satisfying people's spiritual thirst).--- Crossway ESV Study Bible notes
