Contextual Overview

1 After these thynges, Iesus went his waye ouer the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias. 2 And a great multitude folowed hym, because they sawe his miracles whiche he dyd on them that were diseased. 3 And Iesus went vp into a mountayne, & there he sate with his disciples. 4 And the Passouer, a feast of ye Iewes, was nye. 5 When Iesus then lyft vp his eyes, and sawe a great company come vnto him, he saith vnto Philip: Whence shal we bye bread, that these may eate? 6 (This he sayde to proue hym: for he hym selfe knewe what he woulde do.) 7 Philip aunswered hym: Two hundred penie worth of bread are not sufficient for them, that euery man may take a litle. 8 One of his disciples, Andrewe, Simo Peters brother, sayth vnto hym: 9 There is a litle ladde here, whiche hath fyue barly loaues and two fisshes, but what are they among so many? 10 And Iesus sayde: Make the people syt downe. There was much grasse in the place. So the men sate downe, in number about fyue thousande.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was nigh. This was the third passover, since our Lord's baptism, and entrance on his public ministry; see John 2:13. Whether Christ went up to this feast is not certain; some think he did not; but from what is said in John 7:1, it looks as if he did: how nigh it was to the feast, cannot well be said. Thirty days before the feast, they began to talk about it; and especially in the last fifteen days, they made preparations for it, as being at hand b; and if there was now so long time to it, there was time enough for Jesus to go to it.

b T. Bab. Pesach. fol. 6. 1. Maimon. & Bartenora in Misn. Shekalim, c. 3. sect. 1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The passover - See the notes at Matthew 26:2, Matthew 26:17.

A feast of the Jews - This is one of the circumstances of explanation thrown in by John which show that he wrote for those who were unacquainted with Jewish customs.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse John 6:4. And the passover - was nigh. — This happened about ten or twelve days before the third passover which Christ celebrated after his baptism. Calmet. For a particular account of our Lord's four passovers John 2:13.

For thirty days before the Passover there were great preparations made by the Jews, but especially in the last nineteen days, in order to celebrate the feast with due solemnity. Lightfoot supposes that what is here related happened within the last fifteen days. See Calmet's opinion above.
