John 6:14 - Additional Comments
They referred to Jesus as "the" Prophet who was to come, which meant the Messiah. See Deut 18:15-18. Some were starting to get a clue. You never know what it will take to convert someone -- after watching all those healings, for some they didn't realize who Jesus was until the miracle of the bread and fish. Never underestimate the impact that little things you do for others to show them God can have.
Yet, even as now, the perceptions of the Messiah were way off target, as we see in the next verse.
