Contextual Overview

60 Many therfore of his disciples, when they had hearde this, saide: This is an harde saying, who can abyde the hearyng of it? 61 Iesus knewe in hym selfe, that his disciples murmured at it, and he sayde vnto them, doth this offende you? 62 What and yf ye shall see the sonne of man ascende vp thyther where he was before? 63 It is the spirite that quickeneth, the fleshe profiteth nothyng. The wordes that I speake vnto you, are spirite and lyfe. 64 But there are some of you that beleue not. For Iesus knewe from the begynning, which they were that beleued not, and who shoulde betray hym. 65 And he sayde: Therfore saide I vnto you, that no man can come vnto me, except it were geue vnto him of my father. 66 From that time, many of his disciples wet backe, & walked no more with him. 67 Then sayde Iesus vnto the twelue: Wyll ye also go away? 68 Then Simon Peter aunswered him: Lorde, to who shall we go? Thou hast the wordes of eternall lyfe: 69 And we beleue and are sure that thou art Christe, the sonne of ye lyuyng God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

[What] and if ye shall see the son of man,.... Meaning himself then in a state of humiliation, and was taken for a mere man, though the true Messiah, and Son of God:

ascend up where he was before? for Christ was, he existed before his incarnation, and he was in heaven before; not in his human nature, but as the word and Son of God: and he intimates, that when he had done his work, and the will of his Father, for which he came down from heaven, by the assumption of the human nature, he should ascend up thither again; and which would be seen, as it was, by his apostles; and which would prove that he came down from heaven, as he had asserted; see Ephesians 4:9; and that his flesh and blood were not to be eaten in a corporeal sense; in which sense they understood him: and he hereby suggests, that if it was difficult to receive, and hard to be understood, and was surprising and incredible, that he should come down from heaven, as bread, to be eat and fed upon; it would be much more so to them to be told, that he who was in so mean and lowly a form, should ascend up into heaven.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

What and if ... - Jesus does not say that those who were then present would see him ascend, but he implies that he would ascend. They had taken offence because he said he came down from heaven. Instead of explaining that away, he proceeds to state another doctrine quite as offensive to them - that he would reascend to heaven. The apostles only were present at his ascension, Acts 1:9. As Jesus was to ascend to heaven, it was clear that he could not have intended literally that they should eat his flesh.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 62. If ye shall see the Son of man ascend — Ye need not be stumbled at what I say concerning eating my flesh and drinking my blood, for ye shall soon have the fullest proof that this is figuratively spoken, for I shall ascend with the same body with which I shall arise from the dead; therefore my flesh and blood, far from being eaten by men, shall not even be found among them.
