The "Bread of Life" Discourse in John 6 According to the Syriac

"This is a hard word, who is able to hear it?" (John 6:60)

Subdeacon Daniel Kakish had a fascinating discussion with Dr. Michael Wingert on this topic, which really makes one understand just why he was so puzzled by the questions from his Protestant interlocutor in a recent debate. The Subdeacon was right when he said that for all our differences, on this Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, and even the Assyrian Church of the East all agree on the core doctrines of the Eucharist. There is much here in this discussion edifying to all Apostolic Christians, useful too in discussions with Protestants.
