Im Gegensatz zur Mehrheitsmeinung, dass in Joh 6 Jesus und Moses/Manna in einen Gegensatz zueinander gestellt würden, versteht diese Studie Joh 6 als eine positive und konstruktive Neuinterpretation des Exodus. Ähnlich wie andere jüdische Autoren seiner Zeit interpretiert Johannes aktuelle Ereignisse im Licht des Exodus. Dieser Zugang zum Johannesevangelium macht zugleich eine Neuinterpretation des Verhältnisses des Johannesevangeliums zu den jüdischen Schriften, seines Dualismus und seiner metaphorischen Sprache möglich.
