The Israelites cried again and said,“ Who will feed us meat?We remember the free fish we ate in Egypt, along with the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic.But now our appetite is gone; there’s nothing to look at but this manna!”The manna resembled coriander seed, and its appearance was like that of bdellium.The people walked around and gathered it.

It tasted like a pastry cooked with the finest oil.When the dew fell on the camp at night, the manna would fall with it.
