“Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.”
'Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. — the analogy is clear: just as Jesus' life derives from the Father (dia ton patera), so the believer's life derives from Jesus. Eating the flesh-blood creates analogous dependence on Jesus as Jesus has on the Father.
