Then the Lord said to Moses, “I will now rain down bread from heaven for you. Each day the people are to go out and gather their daily portion; thus will I test them, to see whether they follow my instructions or not. On the sixth day, however, when they prepare what they bring in, let it be twice as much as they gather on the other days.” So Moses and Aaron told all the Israelites, “At evening you will know that is was the Lord who brought you out of the land of Egypt; and in the morning you will see the glory of the Lord, as he heeds the grumbling you utter against him, what then are we? Your grumbling is not against us, but against the Lord.”
Then Moses said to Aaron, “Tell the whole Israelite community: Present yourselves before the Lord, for he has heard your grumbling.” When Aaron announced this to the whole Israelite community, they turned toward the desert, and lo, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud!. The Lord spoke to Moses and said, “I have heard the grumblings of the Israelites. Tell them: In the evening twilight you shall eat flesh, and in the morning you shall have your fill of bread, so that you may know that I, the Lord, am your God.”
In the evening quail came up and covered the camp. In the morning a dew lay all about the camp, and when the dew evaporated, there on the surface of the desert were fine flakes like hoarfrost on the ground. On seeing it, the Israelites asked one another, “What is this?” for they did not know what it was. But Moses told them: “This is the bread which the Lord has given you to eat.”
The Israelites called this food manna. It was like coriander seed, but white, and it tasted like wafers made with honey.
The Israelites ate this manna for forty years, until they came to settled land; they ate manna until they reached the borders of Canaan.
(Exodus 16:4-15,31,35)
