John 6 we see the use of the word sign, and people do and don"t see these signs. Se one of the miracle stores taken as a sign pointing to a bigger significance. In john 5, he was in jerusalem but at the beginning of john 6 he has crossed to the other side of the sea of galilee and is now in galilee. Break in the narrative john doesn"t concern himself with chronological order in his writings. Evidence of two different sources being combined, they don"t fit together one source says one thing, something from another source is put here doesn"t fit combination of different sources.
