“Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.”
Jesus said to them, 'My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work. — the repetition emphasizes this principle. The verb apoteleioo (to finish/complete) suggests the final accomplishment of redemption, anticipating his Passion. Jesus' entire existence is oriented toward completing the Father's redemptive work.
