16:15
And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the LORD hath given you to eat.

Meaning

In this verse, the children of Israel have just encountered a miraculous provision from the Lord in the form of manna. This mysterious substance appeared on the ground and was completely unfamiliar to them, prompting them to question what it was. Moses, the leader appointed by God, clarifies that this manna is the bread that the Lord has given them to eat. This event symbolizes God's faithfulness and provision for His people. The manna served as a physical manifestation of God's care and sustenance for the Israelites during their journey in the wilderness. It was a daily reminder to the Israelites of God's presence and His promises to provide for their needs. This verse reinforces the idea that God is the ultimate provider and sustainer of His people, showing His love and grace in tangible ways.
