SEV Biblia, Chapter 6:59
Estas cosas dijo en la sinagoga, enseando en Capernaum.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - John 6:59
Verse 59. In the synagogue-in Capernaum.] From chap. vi. 26, to this verse, the evangelist gives us the discourse which our Lord preached in the synagogue, in which he was repeatedly interrupted by the Jews; but this gave him the fuller opportunity to proclaim the whole truth relative to his passion and death, to edify the disciples, and confute these gainsayers.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 59. These things said he in the synagogue , etc.] Openly and publicly, in the place of divine worship, where the Jews resorted for that purpose: as he taught in Capernaum ; his own city, and where there was a synagogue, into which he often went and taught his doctrines, and wrought miracles; (see Matthew 3:13 8:5,14 9:1,2 12:9).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 52-59 - The flesh and blood of the Son of man, denote the Redeemer in the nature of man; Christ and him crucified, and the redemption wrought ou by him, with all the precious benefits of redemption; pardon of sin acceptance with God, the way to the throne of grace, the promises of the covenant, and eternal life. These are called the flesh and blood of Christ, because they are purchased by the breaking his body, and the shedding of his blood. Also, because they are meat and drink to ou souls. Eating this flesh and drinking this blood mean believing in Christ. We partake of Christ and his benefits by faith. The soul tha rightly knows its state and wants, finds whatever can calm the conscience, and promote true holiness, in the redeemer, God manifest in the flesh. Meditating upon the cross of Christ gives life to ou repentance, love, and gratitude. We live by him, as our bodies live by our food. We live by him, as the members by the head, the branches be the root: because he lives we shall live also.

Vincent's NT Word Studies
59. In the synagogue (en sunagwgh). But the definite article is wanting; so that we must either understand in a synagogue, or in an assembly. See on Jas. ii. 2. Among the ruins at Tell Hum, the probable site of Capernaum, have been found among the remains of a synagogue a block of stone, perhaps the lintel, carved with the pot of manna, and with a pattern of vine leaves and clusters of grapes. See a full account of these ruins in Thomson's "Land and Book, Central Palestine and Phoenicia," pp. 417-419.
