John 6:27

Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which
endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you,
because God the Father has set His seal on Him.

What did He mean by the phrase as applied to Himself?

I wonder if this word usage has anything to do with the meaning in Ephesians, in which the Spirit is a seal in us, signifying that the owner who pressed his signet into the goods will return later to pick it up. A seal of ownership.

Ephesians 1:13

In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel
of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with
the Holy Spirit of promise,

EDIT: I found this sentence in another QA on this site that clears it up: "The metaphor of sealing is a common one for giving attestation" to a truth. God the Father attests to the truth of who Jesus is.
