• The quails have no special teaching connected with them, whereas it will be seen that the manna is a very striking type of the Lord Jesus. The quails therefore were given to satisfy the desires of the people, but brought no blessing. It is in connection with these, indeed, that the Psalmist says, “He gave them their request; but sent leanness into their soul” (Psa. 106:15). God may hear the cry of His people, even in their unbelief, and grant them their desires—but for discipline rather than for present blessing. (“The Manna: Exodus 16” by E. Dennett)
• (1 Tim. 6:9-10). This is only one form of turning back to Egypt, but the principle is applicable to every object which the flesh can desire (“The Manna: Exodus 16” by E. Dennett)
