Come, have breakfast This phrase is an invitation from Jesus to His disciples. The Greek word for "come" is "δεῦτε" (deute), which is an imperative form, suggesting a command or a strong invitation. This reflects Jesus' authority and His role as a leader and provider. The act of having breakfast together is significant in the Jewish culture, as sharing a meal is a sign of fellowship and reconciliation. Jesus is inviting His disciples into a deeper relationship with Him, emphasizing the importance of community and communion with the Lord. Jesus said to them None of the disciples dared to ask Him, Who are You? They knew it was the Lord And none of the disciples durst ask him . . .--Comp. John 4:27. They approach Him in reverent silence. Knowing it is the Lord, they yet desire the assurance in His own words, and still they do not dare to ask, "Who art thou?" The Greek word rendered "ask" means to "prove" "inquire." It is found elsewhere in the New Testament in Matthew 2:8; Matthew 10:11 only. The word rendered "durst," is also not found again in St. John, but its use in the Gospels is--except in the instance of Nicodemus, "who went in boldly unto Pilate" (Mark 15:43)--confined to the expression of the reverence which dared not question our Lord. (Comp. Matthew 22:46; Mark 12:34; Luke 20:40.) In all these instances it is used with a negative, and with a verb of inquiry, as here. . . . Verse 12. - Jesus saith to them, Come and break your fast. A Word is used which does not denote the principal meal of the day (not δειπνέω, but ἀριστάω, from ἄριστον), but a slight refreshment that was taken in early morning, or at least before noon, and answers to our breakfast at the dawning of the day. He calls them to the repast. He becomes once more their Host and their Minister. Even still, metaphorically, he washes their feet. He attends to their requirements. He feeds them from this strangely bestowed supply. He joins them in their hunger for souls. He inspires their methods. He shares in their victory, after painful fruitless toil. Now not one - i.e. not even Thomas - of the disciples durst inquire of him - put to him the interrogatory - Who art thou? knowing, each one of them that it was the Lord. The use of ἐξετάσαι instead of ἑρωτήσαι, John's own word, is not to be wondered at, as he does not think of a simple inquiry, but of such an examination as would furnish them with facts. These they possessed. A feeling of awe and reverence possessed them. They were of one mind about the marvelous revelation of himself to them. Some strange emotion sealed their lips. He had not manifested himself to the world, but to his disciples, and to them by "the interpretations they were putting upon their own experience" (Westcott). They knew it was the Lord. They looked into that other world. They were lost in silent amaze, and received the revelation once more of their risen Master and Lord.Parallel Commentaries ...
