man -
hu , "
What is that ?"
the name given by the Israelites to the food miraculously supplied to them during their wanderings in the wilderness (
Ex .
16 :
15 -
35 ).
The name is commonly taken as derived from _man_ ,
an expression of surprise , "
What is it ?"
but more probably it is derived from _manan_ ,
meaning "
to allot ,"
and hence denoting an "
allotment "
or a "
gift ."
This "
gift "
from God is described as "
a small round thing ,"
like the "
hoar -
frost on the ground ,"
and "
like coriander seed ," "
of the colour of bdellium ,"
and in taste "
like wafers made with honey ."
It was capable of being baked and boiled ,
ground in mills ,
or beaten in a mortar (
Ex .
16 :
23 ;
Num .
11 :
7 ).
If any was kept over till the following morning ,
it became corrupt with worms ;
but as on the Sabbath none fell ,
on the preceding day a double portion was given ,
and that could be kept over to supply the wants of the Sabbath without becoming corrupt .
Directions concerning the gathering of it are fully given (
Ex .
16 :
16 -
18 ,
33 ;
Deut .
8 :
3 ,
16 ).
It fell for the first time after the eighth encampment in the desert of Sin ,
and was daily furnished ,
except on the Sabbath ,
for all the years of the wanderings ,
till they encamped at Gilgal ,
after crossing the Jordan ,
when it suddenly ceased ,
and where they "
did eat of the old corn of the land ;
neither had the children of Israel manna any more " (
Josh .
5 :
12 ).
They now no longer needed the "
bread of the wilderness ."
This manna was evidently altogether a miraculous gift ,
wholly different from any natural product with which we are acquainted ,
and which bears this name .
The manna of European commerce comes chiefly from Calabria and Sicily .
It drops from the twigs of a species of ash during the months of June and July .
At night it is fluid and resembles dew ,
but in the morning it begins to harden .
The manna of the Sinaitic peninsula is an exudation from the "
manna -
tamarisk "
tree (
Tamarix mannifera ),
the el -
tarfah of the Arabs .
This tree is found at the present day in certain well -
watered valleys in the peninsula of Sinai .
The manna with which the people of Israel were fed for forty years differs in many particulars from all these natural products .
Our Lord refers to the manna when he calls himself the "
true bread from heaven " (
John 6 :
31 -
35 ;
48 -
51 ).
He is also the "
hidden manna " (
Rev .
2 :
17 ;
comp .
John 6 :
49 ,
51 ).
