'Ate' in the Bible

(howbeit there came boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks):

Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye ate of the loaves, and were filled.

Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, He gave them bread out of heaven to eat.

Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died.

This is the bread which came down out of heaven: not as the fathers ate, and died; he that eateth this bread shall live for ever.
