“I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”
'I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.' — the full revelation: Jesus is living bread, his flesh is the bread, given as sacrifice for the world. The language combines sacramental (eating) and soteriological (given for life of world) dimensions.
