4. Then said the Lord unto Moses —Though the outbreak was immediately against the human leaders, it was indirectly against God: yet mark His patience, and how graciously He promised to redress the grievance. I will rain bread from heaven —Israel, a type of the Church which is from above, and being under the conduct, government, and laws of heaven, received their food from heaven also ( :- ). that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no —The grand object of their being led into the wilderness was that they might receive a religious training directly under the eye of God; and the first lesson taught them was a constant dependence on God for their daily nourishment. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-13" class="com-number"
