It was built by Herod Antipas sometime between 18 and 26 C.E. as his new capital and residence. He named the city in honor of Tiberius Caesar, Roman emperor at the time, and it is still called Tiberias (Hebrew: Teverya). Though it was the largest city in the region, this is the only mention of it in the Scriptures. It is never stated that Jesus visited Tiberias, perhaps because of its strong foreign influence. (Compare <a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/18/0" data-bid="19-1" class="b">Mt 10:5-7</a>.) According to <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/11/0">Josephus</a>, the city of Tiberias had been built on the site of tombs; therefore, many Jews had been reluctant to move there. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/19/0" data-bid="20-1" class="b">Num 19:11-14</a>) After the Jewish revolt in the second century C.E., Tiberias was declared cleansed and became the leading city of Jewish scholarship and the seat of the Sanhedrin. The <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/12/0">Mishnah</a> and the Palestinian (Jerusalem) <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/13/0">Talmud</a> were compiled here, as well as the <a

5:26</a>, Jesus said that he was granted “life in himself” just as his Father has “life in himself.” (See <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/24/0">study note on Joh 5:26</a>.) Now, about a year later, Jesus uses the same expression regarding his followers. Here he equates having “life in yourselves” with gaining “everlasting life.” (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/61/0" data-bid="62-1" class="b">Joh 6:54</a>) Rather than denoting the power to impart life, in this context the expression “life in oneself” seems to refer to entering into the very fullness of life, or being fully alive. Anointed Christians become fully alive when they are resurrected to immortal life in heaven. Faithful ones with an earthly hope will be fully alive after they pass the final test that will occur right after the end of the Millennial Reign of Christ.—<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/62/0" data-bid="63-1" class="b">1Co 15:52, 53;</a><a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/62/1" data-bid="63-2" class="b"> Re 20:5,</a><a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/62/2" data-bid="63-3" class="b"> 7-10</a>.</p> </span></li></ul></div><div class="group marginal"><div class="header"><span class="marker"><span class="icon"></span></span><span class="icon"></span><h4 class="title"><span class="scalableui">Marginal References</span></h4></div><ul class="content"><li class="item collapsible marginal marginalExpander collapsed" data-src="/en/wol/marginalreference/r1/lp-e/nwtsty/43/6/245" data-extract-id="verseMarginal-246"><div class="header"><span class="marker"><span class="scalableui">+</span></span><span class="icon"></span><span class="marginal title"><span class="scalableui">Joh 6:33</span></span></div><div class="content"><div data-extract-target-id="verseMarginal-246" class="loading hidden"><span class="icon"></span></div><div data-extract-target-id="verseMarginal-246" class="extract"></div></div></li></ul></div><div class="group index collapsible collapsed"><div class="header"><span class="marker"><span class="icon"></span></span><span class="icon"></span><h4 class="title"><span class="scalableui">Indexes</span></h4></div><ul class="content"><li class="item ref-rsg" data-extract-id=""><div class="subtitle">Research Guide</div><span class="scalableui"><p id="p521" data-pid="521" class="se"></p> <p id="p522" data-pid="522" class="su"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/565/0"><em>Jesus—The Way,</em> p. 134</a></p> <div id="p523" data-pid="523"><p data-pid="523" class="su"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/566/0"><em>The Watchtower,</em></a></p><p data-pid="523" class="sk"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/566/0">4/15/2008, p. 31</a></p><p data-pid="523" class="sk"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/567/0">9/15/2003, pp. 30-31</a></p><p data-pid="523" class="sk"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/568/0">3/15/1995, p. 26</a></p><p data-pid="523" class="sk"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/569/0">10/15/1987, pp. 8-9</a></p><p data-pid="523" class="sk"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/570/0">4/15/1986, p. 31</a></p><p data-pid="523" class="sk"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/571/0">2/15/1986, pp. 18-19,</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/572/0"> 30-31</a></p> </div><p id="p524" data-pid="524" class="su"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/573/0"><em>Reasoning,</em> pp. 263,</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1204433/574/0"> 268</a></p> <p id="p525" data-pid="525" class="se"></p> </span></li><li class="item ref-dx" data-extract-id=""><div class="subtitle">Publications Index</div><span class="scalableui"><p id="p153" data-pid="153" class="sx"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/0">jy 134;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/2"> w08 4/15 31;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/5"> w03 9/15 30-31;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/8"> w95 3/15 26;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/10"> gt chapter 55;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/13"> rs 263,</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/15"> 268;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/17"> w87 10/15 8-9;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/20"> w86 2/15 18-19,</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/22"> 30-31;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200270043/151/24"> w86 4/15 31;</a></p> <p id="p154" data-pid="154" class="sx"></p> <p id="p193" data-pid="193" class="sx"><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200020043/191/0">w78 3/1 9-10;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200020043/191/3"> w78 9/1 16-17,</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200020043/191/5"> 27-30;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200020043/191/9"> w65 104;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200020043/191/10"> w62 143;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200020043/191/11"> w56 52;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1200020043/191/12"> w51 56;</a><span class="ni"> w42 77;</span><span class="ni"> w39 92;</span><span class="ni"> w38 71;</span><span class="ni"> jh 108;</span><span class="ni"> w33 88</span></p> <p id="p194" data-pid="194" class="sx"></p> </span></li></ul></div></div><div class="section" data-key="43-6-54" data-section-citation="043006054043006054"><h3 class="title"><span class="scalableui">John 6:54</span></h3><div class="studyNoteGroup"><ul class="content"><li class="item studyNote" data-extract-id=""><span class="scalableui"><p id="p43" data-pid="43" class="s5"><strong>feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood:</strong> The context indicates that those who feed and drink do so in a figurative sense by exercising faith in Jesus Christ.

Jesus spent the entire night in prayer to his Father before selecting the 12 apostles. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/72/0" data-bid="73-1" class="b">Lu 6:12-16</a>) So at first, Judas was faithful to God. However, Jesus knew from Hebrew Scripture prophecies that he would be betrayed by a close associate. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/73/0" data-bid="74-1" class="b">Ps 41:9;</a><a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/73/1" data-bid="74-2" class="b"> 109:8;</a><a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/73/2" data-bid="74-3" class="b"> Joh 13:18, 19</a>) When Judas started to go bad, Jesus, who could read hearts and thoughts, detected this change. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/74/0" data-bid="75-1" class="b">Mt 9:4</a>) By use of his foreknowledge, God knew that a trusted companion of Jesus would turn traitor. But it is inconsistent with God’s qualities and past dealings to think that Judas had to be the one who would fail, as if his failure were predestined.</p> <p id="p56" data-pid="56" class="s5"><strong>from the beginning:</strong> This expression does not refer to Judas’ birth or to his being selected as an apostle, which happened after Jesus had prayed the entire night. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/75/0" data-bid="76-1" class="b">Lu 6:12-16</a>) Rather, it refers to the start of Judas’ acting treacherously, which Jesus immediately discerned. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/76/0" data-bid="77-1" class="b">Joh 2:24, 25;</a><a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/76/1" data-bid="77-2" class="b"> Re 1:1;</a><a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/76/2" data-bid="77-3" class="b"> 2:23</a>; see <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/32/0">study notes on Joh 6:70;</a><a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/33/0"> 13:11</a>.) This also shows that Judas’ actions were premeditated and planned, not the result of a sudden change of heart. The meaning of the term “beginning” (Greek, <em>ar·kheʹ</em>) in the <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/34/0">Christian Greek Scriptures</a> is relative, depending on the context. For example, at <a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/77/0" data-bid="78-1" class="b">2Pe 3:4</a>, “beginning” refers to the start of creation. But in most instances, it is used in a more limited sense. For instance, Peter said that the holy spirit fell on the Gentiles “just as it did also on us in the beginning.” (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/78/0" data-bid="79-1" class="b">Ac 11:15</a>) Peter was not referring to the time of his birth or to the time when he was called to be an apostle. Rather, he was referring to the day of Pentecost 33 C.E., that is, “the beginning” of the outpouring of holy spirit for a specific purpose. (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/79/0" data-bid="80-1" class="b">Ac 2:1-4</a>) Other examples of how the context affects the meaning of the term “beginning” can be found at <a

data-pid="58" class="s5"><strong>a slanderer:</strong> Or “a devil.” The Greek word <em>di·aʹbo·los,</em> most often used with reference to the Devil, means “slanderer.” It is rendered “slanderers” (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/83/0" data-bid="84-1" class="b">2Ti 3:3</a>) or “slanderous” (<a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/84/0" data-bid="85-1" class="b">1Ti 3:11;</a><a href="/en/wol/bc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/84/1" data-bid="85-2" class="b"> Tit 2:3</a>) in the few other occurrences where the term does not refer to the Devil. In Greek, when used about the Devil, it is almost always preceded by the definite article. (See <a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/35/0">study note on Mt 4:1</a> and Glossary, “<a href="/en/wol/pc/r1/lp-e/1001070674/36/0">Definite Article</a>.”) Here the term is used to describe Judas Iscariot, who had developed a bad quality. It is possible that at this point Jesus detected that Judas was starting down a wrong course, one that later allowed Satan to use Judas as an ally in having Jesus killed.—<a
