Commentary on John 6:8
Theological / DevotionalAndrew. As in the case of Philip (v. 5), John is the only evangelist to record Andrew’s part in the narrative. These references to particular persons not otherwise mentioned in connection with this miracle are evidence that the Gospel of John is the account of an eyewitness.
Like Philip, Andrew was from the nearby town of Bethsaida. In ch. 12:20-22, John shows Philip going to Andrew, probably for advice and support in presenting to Jesus the case of the inquiring Greeks. It seems probable that in the present instance also, either Philip turned to Andrew for help in the problem Jesus presented to him or Andrew volunteered his remark when he knew of Jesus’ question to Philip, his friend.
