John Gill
And when they had found him on the other side of the sea,.... At Capernaum, and in the synagogue there; see John 6:59. They said unto him, Rabbi; or "master", a name now much in use with the Jewish doctors, and by which they delighted to be called; and these men being convinced by the miracle, that Christ was that prophet that should come, honour him with this title, saying, when camest thou...
Matthew Henry
In this chapter we have, I. The miracle of the loaves, ver. 1-14. II. Christ's walking upon the water, ver. 15-21. III. The people's flocking after him to Capernaum, ver. 22-25. IV. His conference with them, occasioned by the miracle of the loaves, in which he reproves them for seeking carnal food, and directs them to spiritual food (ver. 26, 27), showing them how they must labour for spiritual...

And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither? They could not understand how he could have got there.

And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither? Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me not because ye saw the miracles but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. He did not gratify their curiosity by telling them how or when he came there, for that was no concern of theirs. Neither is it...
Charles H. Spurgeon
And when they had found him on other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither? Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek; me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. What very plain talk this is! Our Lord does not try to gain popularity by the concealment of truth, but he tells these people to...
