Ex. 16:2‑3,12‑35• 2And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness:
 3And the children of Israel said unto them, Would to God we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh pots, and when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.
 12I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God.
 13And it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the host.
 14And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground.
 15And 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.
 16This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for every man, according to the number of your persons; take ye every man for them which are in his tents.
 17And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less.
 18And when they did mete it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered every man according to his eating.
 19And Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the morning.
 20Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and stank: and Moses was wroth with them.
 21And they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating: and when the sun waxed hot, it melted.
 22And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man: and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.
 23And he said unto them, This is that which the Lord hath said, To morrow is the rest of the holy sabbath unto the Lord: bake that which ye will bake to day, and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the morning.
 24And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade: and it did not stink, neither was there any worm therein.
 25And Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day is a sabbath unto the Lord: to day ye shall not find it in the field.
 26Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none.
 27And it came to pass, that there went out some of the people on the seventh day for to gather, and they found none.
 28And the Lord said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws?
 29See, for that the Lord hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day.
 30So the people rested on the seventh day.
 31And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna: and it was like coriander seed, white; and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey.
 32And Moses said, This is the thing which the Lord commandeth, Fill an omer of it to be kept for your generations; that they may see the bread wherewith I have fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt.
 33And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omer full of manna therein, and lay it up before the Lord, to be kept for your generations.
 34As the Lord commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.
 35And the children of Israel did eat manna forty years, until they came to a land inhabited; they did eat manna, until they came unto the borders of the land of Canaan. (Ex. 16:2‑3,12‑35)

• This is precisely what does put man to the proof morally. The word of God tests whether he submits to it, whether he lives on it, whether he delights in it, whether his meat is to do the will of God as the Lord Jesus proved His meat was. (“Deuteronomy 8” by W. Kelly)
