OET (OET-LV) Therefore the Yaʸsous said to_them:
Truly, truly, I_am_saying to_you_all, Mōsaʸs/(Mosheh) has_ not _given to_you_all the bread out_of the heaven, but the father of_me is_giving to_you_all the the true bread out_of the heaven.
OET (OET-RV) Yeshua said to them, “Actually I can tell you that it wasn’t Moses who gave them bread from heaven, but my father gives you the real bread from heaven,
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet
ἀμὴν, ἀμὴν, λέγω ὑμῖν
truly truly ˱I˲_/am/_saying ˱to˲_you_all
Jesus uses this phrase to emphasize the truth of the statement that follows. See how you translated this phrase in 1:51.
οὐ Μωϋσῆς δέδωκεν ὑμῖν
not Moses /has/_given ˱to˲_you_all
Here John records Jesus speaking in a way that emphasizes that Moses was not the source of manna in the wilderness. He seems to be correcting the crowd’s incorrect understanding of the scripture they quoted in the previous verse. Use whatever form best communicates this kind of negative emphasis in your language. Alternate translation: “Moses was not the one who has given you”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
τὸν ἄρτον
the bread
Here John records Jesus using the word bread to represent food in general that is needed to sustain life. See how you translated this word in the previous verse.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἀλλ’ ὁ Πατήρ μου δίδωσιν
but the Father ˱of˲_me /is/_giving
This phrase serves two purposes. First, it implies that the Father, not Moses, was the source of the bread from heaven mentioned by the crowd in the previous verse. Second, it indicates that the Father is still giving bread from heaven, although not the kind of bread the crowd is expecting. If this might confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. You may also want to start a new sentence. Alternate translation: “Rather, my Father has given that bread and now gives”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / extrainfo
ὁ Πατήρ μου δίδωσιν ὑμῖν τὸν ἄρτον ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ τὸν ἀληθινόν
¬the the Father ˱of˲_me /is/_giving ˱to˲_you_all the bread out_of ¬the heaven ¬the true
Here Jesus is using true bread to refer to himself. However, the crowd does not understand this, and Jesus does not tell them this plainly until verse 35. Therefore, you do not need to explain its meaning further here.
Note 5 topic: guidelines-sonofgodprinciples
ὁ Πατήρ μου
¬the the Father ˱of˲_me
Father is an important title for God.
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
(Occurrence 2) ἄρτον
bread
See how you translated the word bread earlier in this verse and in the previous verse.
6:1-71 Each story in this chapter uses the setting of the Passover Festival (6:4) to communicate a deeper meaning.
