As BDF points out (Paragraph 101 I think) TRWGEIN replaces ESQIW in later 
usage.  This would allow for the verb to be rendered 'eat.'  With a gospel as 
highly nuanced as John's though, the question remains as to whether the verb can 
be rendered 'to feed.'  This would preserve the sacramental quality in chapter 
6 and would also allow for the multiple images in the gospel to be preserved.
