Exodus Chapter 16

THE TORAH

EXODUS

SHEMOT

The book of Exodus, known as Shemot in Hebrew, is the second book of the Torah. It continues the narrative of the Israelites’ journey and their development as a nation after the book of Genesis.

The book of Exodus chronicles the liberation of the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, the revelation of the Ten Commandments and the establishment of the covenant at Mount Sinai, and the journey towards the Promised Land. It highlights the leadership of Moses, the miracles performed by G-d, and the development of the Israelite nation as a chosen people.

Chapter 16 of Exodus G-d Speaks About the People’s Refusal to Observe His Commandments and His Teachings

Whether Vocally Or Just Deep Within You Complaints Sprout Non-stop

For this reason, in the Torah G-d introduced sacred objects, seasons and practices that people would be reminded of His greatness — to repeatedly cause them to look back and realize that He is in control.

The same way He takes care of His creation and provides for them; what more with mankind that is made in His own image and likeness.

“Food from Heaven: Manna”
“The Sabbath”

The entire assembly of the Children of Israel complained against Moses and Aaron in the Wilderness.
16:2
Hashem said to Moses, “Behold! – I shall rain down for you food from heaven, let the people go out and pick each day’s portion on its day, so that I can test them, whether they will follow My teaching or not.
:4
And it shall be that on the sixth day when they prepare what they bring, it will be double what they pick every day.”
:5
And in the morning you will see the glory of Hashem, that He has heard your complaints against Hashem – for what are we that you should incite complaints against us?” –
:7
It was toward evening that the quail ascended and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp.
:13
The Children of Israel saw and said to one another, “It is food!” – for they did not know what it was. Moses said to them, “This is the food that Hashem has given you for eating.
:15
Moses said to them, “No man may leave over from it until morning.” But they did not obey Moses and people left over from it until morning and it became infested with worms and it stank; and Moses became angry with them.
:19-20
It happened on the sixth day that they gathered a double portion of food, …
:22
… “This is what Hashem had spoken; tomorrow is a rest day, a holy Sabbath to Hashem. Bake what you wish to bake and cook what you wish to cook; and whatever is left over, put away for yourselves as a safekeeping until the morning.
:23
Moses said, “Eat it today, for today is a Sabbath for Hashem; today you shall not find it in the field.
:25
Six days shall you gather it, but the seventh day is a Sabbath, on it there will be none.”
:26
Hashem said to Moses, “How long will you refuse to observe My commandments and My teachings?
:28
The people rested on the seventh day.
:30
The House of Israel called it manna. It was like a coriander seed, it was white, and ot tasted like a cake fried in honey.
:31
As Hashem had commanded Moses, Aaron placed it before the Ark of Testimony for a safekeeping.
:34
The Children of Israel ate the manna for forty years, until their arrival in an inhabited land; they ate the manna until their arrival at the border of the land of Canaan.
:35

1 They journeyed from Elim, and the entire community of the children of Israel came to the desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departure from the land of Egypt.
2 The entire community of the children of Israel complained against Moses and against Aaron in the desert.
3 The children of Israel said to them, If only we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by pots of meat, when we ate bread to our fill! For you have brought us out into this desert, to starve this entire congregation to death
4 So the Lord said to Moses, Behold! I am going to rain down for you bread from heaven, and the people shall go out and gather what is needed for the day, so that I can test them, whether or not they will follow My teaching.
5 And it shall be on the sixth day that when they prepare what they will bring, it will be double of what they gather every day
6 [Thereupon,] Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, [In the] evening, you shall know that the Lord brought you out of the land of Egypt.
7 And [in the] morning, you shall see the glory of the Lord when He hears your complaints against the Lord but [of] what [significance] are we, that you make [the people] complain against us?
8 And Moses said, When the Lord gives you in the evening meat to eat and bread in the morning [with which] to become sated, when the Lord hears your complaints, which you are making [the people] complain against Him, but [of] what [significance] are we? Not against us are your complaints, but against the Lord
9 And Moses said to Aaron, Say to the entire community of the children of Israel, Draw near before the Lord, for He has heard your complaints.
10 And it came to pass when Aaron spoke to the entire community of the children of Israel, that they turned toward the desert, and behold! the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud.
11 The Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
12 I have heard the complaints of the children of Israel. Speak to them, saying, In the afternoon you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be sated with bread, and you shall know that I am the Lord, your God.
13 It came to pass in the evening that the quails went up and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp.
14 The layer of dew went up, and behold, on the surface of the desert, a fine, bare [substance] as fine as frost on the ground.
15 When the children of Israel saw [it], they said to one another, It is manna, because they did not know what it was, and Moses said to them, It is the bread that the Lord has given you to eat.
16 This is the thing that the Lord has commanded, Gather of it each one according to his eating capacity, an omer for each person, according to the number of persons, each one for those in his tent you shall take.
17 And the children of Israel did so: they gathered, both the one who gathered much and the one who gathered little.
18 And they measured [it] with an omer, and whoever gathered much did not have more, and whoever gathered little did not have less; each one according to his eating capacity, they gathered.
19 And Moses said to them, Let no one leave over [any] of it until morning
20 But [some] men did not obey Moses and left over [some] of it until morning, and it bred worms and became putrid, and Moses became angry with them.
21 They gathered it morning by morning, each one according to his eating capacity, and [when] the sun grew hot, it melted.
22 It came to pass on the sixth day that they gathered a double portion of bread, two omers for [each] one, and all the princes of the community came and reported [it] to Moses.
23 So he said to them, That is what the Lord spoke, Tomorrow is a rest day, a holy Sabbath to the Lord. Bake whatever you wish to bake, and cook whatever you wish to cook, and all the rest leave over to keep until morning.
24 So they left it over until morning, as Moses had commanded, and it did not become putrid, and not a worm was in it.
25 And Moses said, Eat it today, for today is a Sabbath to the Lord; today you will not find it in the field.
26 Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day [which is the] Sabbath on it there will be none
27 It came about that on the seventh day, [some] of the people went out to gather [manna], but they did not find [any].
28 The Lord said to Moses, How long will you refuse to observe My commandments and My teachings?
29 See that the Lord has given you the Sabbath. Therefore, on the sixth day, He gives you bread for two days. Let each man remain in his place; let no man leave his place on the seventh day
30 So the people rested on the seventh day.
31 The house of Israel named it manna, and it was like coriander seed, [it was] white, and it tasted like a wafer with honey.
32 Moses said, This is the thing that the Lord commanded: Let one omerful of it be preserved for your generations, in order that they see the bread that I fed you in the desert when I took you out of the land of Egypt.
33 And Moses said to Aaron, Take one jug and put there an omerful of manna, and deposit it before the Lord to be preserved for your generations
34 As the Lord had commanded Moses, Aaron deposited it before the testimony to be preserved.
35 And the children of Israel ate the manna for forty years until they came to an inhabited land. They ate the manna until they came to the border of the land of Canaan.
36 The omer is one tenth of an ephah.

GALLERY
Bible reading in the form of Scripture in pictures can have a profound impact on those who may have never read a chapter in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament). Viewing pivotal verses in a visual context can deepen one’s understanding of the text and provide a unique perspective. The images may help to illustrate important themes and messages that may not have been as easily grasped through standard reading. Additionally, this method can be particularly beneficial for those who struggle with traditional reading methods or for those who are more visually inclined. The power of visual storytelling has been utilized for centuries, and when paired with the timeless words of Scripture, it has the potential to bring new life and meaning to the ancient text. Ultimately, whatever method one chooses to engage with the Bible, the most important thing is to seek a deeper understanding of God’s word, and to apply it to our lives in a meaningful way.
