John 6:42 Context
40And this is the will of him that sent me, that euery one which seeth the Sonne, and beleeueth on him, may haue euerlasting life: and I will raise him vp at the last day. 41The Iewes then murmured at him, because hee said, I am the bread which came downe from heauen. 42And they said, Is not this Iesus the sonne of Ioseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that hee sayth, I came downe from heauen? 43Iesus therefore answered, and said vnto them, Murmure not among your selues. 44No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me, draw him: and I will raise him vp at the last day.
