manna in Exodus 16
MAN-uh
This thing shows up in Exodus 16:31: “The house of Israel called its name Manna, and it was like coriander seed, white; and its taste was like wafers with honey.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Exodus 16:31
“The house of Israel called its name Manna, and it was like coriander seed, white; and its taste was like wafers with honey.”
