PER175
The test of consecration
The pericope PER175 recounts, according to the sole testimony of John (Jn 6,60-61), the reaction of many disciples who, offended by the discourse on the bread of life delivered in Capernaum, choose to abandon the Messiah Jesus. This moment of trial reveals the gap between messianic political expectations and Jesus' spiritual proposal, inviting the reader to a deep reflection on the authentic nature of faith and consecration.
