‏ John 6:45

 Taught of God ( διδακτο θεου ). A free quotation from Isa 54:13 with this phrase in the LXX. There is here the ablative case  θεου with the passive verbal adjective  διδακτο (Robertson, Grammar, p. 516). In 1Th 4:9 we have the compound verbal  θεοδιδακτο. The same use of  διδακτος with the ablative occurs in 1Co 2:13.

 And hath learned ( κα μαθων ). Second aorist active participle of  μανθανω. It is not enough to hear God's voice. He must heed it and learn it and do it. This is a voluntary response. This one inevitably comes to Christ.
