Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 6:3

"And Jesus went up into the mountain, and there he sat with his disciples." — John 6:3 (ASV)

And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.

That was his frequent posture when his disciples were gathered around him. He sat at his ease and talked to his hearers. He was not very demonstrative in his oratory, but spoke calmly and quietly, and left the truth to find its own way into the minds and hearts of men.
