This episode focuses on John 6:62, where the Son of Man speaks of the scandal of ascending to where he was previously. How can we take seriously the identity of the Son of Man as the human agent of God while also giving fair weight to the insistence that he is to ascend to where he was before? This episode provides a balanced interpretation worth considering. My latest book, Wisdom Christology in the Gospel of John, further develops this reading with additional context of Jewish speculation concerning personified wisdom being given from heaven as "bread."
