Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then those men,.... The five thousand men, who had been fed with the loaves and fishes:
when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did; in feeding so many of them, with so small a quantity of food; in multiplying the provision in such a prodigious manner, that after they had eaten to the full, so many baskets of fragments were taken up:
said, this is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world; meaning that prophet, that Moses spoke of, in Deuteronomy 18:15; for the ancient Jews understood this passage of the Messiah, though the modern ones apply it to others; Deuteronomy 18:15- :. And these men concluded that Jesus was that prophet, or the true Messiah, from the miracle he wrought; in which he appeared, not only to be like to Moses, but greater than he.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
That Prophet ... - The Messiah. The power to work the miracle, and the benevolence manifested in it, showed that he was the long-expected Messiah.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse John 6:14. This is of a truth that prophet — Spoken of, Deuteronomy 18:15, viz. the Messiah. How near were these people at this time to the kingdom of heaven!
