Parallels

  • Exodus 15:27 (verbal): Mentions Elim as a campsite with twelve springs and seventy palms — establishes the preceding location (Elim) from which Israel subsequently departs in Exod 16:1.
  • Numbers 33:10-11 (structural): Part of the itinerary list of Israel's encampments; explicitly records the encampment 'in the wilderness of Sin' soon after the Red Sea crossing, paralleling the same stage named in Exod 16:1.
  • Exodus 17:1 (verbal): Continues the travel narrative from the wilderness of Sin to Rephidim — shows immediate narrative continuity with Exod 16:1 (same locale and sequence of movement).
  • Exodus 19:1 (thematic): Places Israel at Mount Sinai in the third month after the exodus; thematically and chronologically linked to Exod 16:1's mention of the wilderness 'between Elim and Sinai' and the travel-timeline following the departure from Egypt.

Parallels

  • Numbers 11:1-3 (verbal): The congregation 'murmured' against Moses there as well; the verb and pattern of complaint in the wilderness are the same, leading to divine judgment (fire) and Moses' intercession.
  • Numbers 14:2-4 (thematic): A large-scale, communal rejection of Moses' leadership and God's promise (weeping, desire to return to Egypt); echoes Exodus 16's theme of Israel's lack of trust in the wilderness.
  • Exodus 17:3 (verbal): Another immediate sequel in Exodus where 'the people murmured against Moses' over lack of water; shows recurring pattern of complaint directed at Moses/Aaron in different crises.
  • Psalm 78:19-24 (allusion): The psalm retells Israel's complaints about provision in the wilderness (doubting God's ability to provide food), directly connecting to the context of Exodus 16 and the manna narrative.
  • John 6:41-51 (allusion): In the NT, Jews 'murmured' at Jesus' claim to be the bread from heaven; John explicitly links the manna tradition (Exodus 16) to Jesus' teaching, echoing the theme of disbelief regarding heavenly provision.

Parallels

  • Num.11:4-6 (thematic): People crave meat and complain about the manna, mourning life in Egypt and desiring the food they had there—parallel theme of grumbling over provision and longing for Egypt's food.
  • Num.21:5 (verbal): The people say, 'Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness?' and complain about food/water and 'this light bread'—near‑verbal repetition of the same accusation.
  • Deut.1:27-28 (verbal): The people tell Moses that he has brought them out to die, echoing the charge found in Exod 16:3; same motif of blaming leaders for alleged doom in the desert.
  • Ps.78:18-31 (allusion): Psalm retells Israel's grumbling about lack of food, their longing for Egypt's meat, and God's response (quail and judgment), alluding to the episode summarized in Exod 16:3.

  • Nehemiah 9:15 (verbal): Recalls that God gave them bread from heaven and provision in the wilderness, citing the manna tradition as God’s daily provision for Israel.
  • John 6:31-33 (allusion): Jesus and his audience invoke the manna (‘our fathers ate the manna’) and call it ‘bread from heaven,’ using the Exodus provision as the background for Jesus’ claim about himself as the true bread.

Parallels

  • Exodus 16:22–30 (verbal): Direct continuation and clarification of v.5: people are instructed to gather twice as much on the sixth day so none must be gathered on the Sabbath; describes baking/boiling and the prohibition against leaving manna overnight on other days.
  • Exodus 20:8–11 (thematic): The Ten Commandments' Sabbath injunction (remember the Sabbath, six days of labor, seventh day of rest) provides the foundational theological rationale for ceasing work on the seventh day, which Exodus 16 anticipates in its provision for the sixth day.
  • Deuteronomy 5:12–15 (thematic): Repeats and reframes the Sabbath command (observe the Sabbath), linking Sabbath observance to Israel's deliverance from Egypt rather than creation—another key scriptural explanation for resting on the seventh day.
  • Exodus 35:2–3 (structural): Later legal prohibition against kindling a fire on the Sabbath; connects to Exodus 16’s concern about preparing food (baking/boiling) for the Sabbath and the broader regulation of Sabbath activity.
  • Numbers 28:9–10 (thematic): Prescribes additional burnt offerings for the Sabbath, showing the cultic/ritual dimension of the Sabbath observance that complements the practical provision for rest and food provision found in Exodus 16.

Then they set out from Elim, and all the congregation of the sons of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their going out from the land of Egypt. And the whole congregation of the sons of Israel grumbled against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness. And the sons of Israel said to them, Would that we had died by the hand of YHWH in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the pot of meat, when we ate bread to the full; for you have brought us out into this wilderness to put to death this whole assembly by hunger.

Then YHWH said to Moses: Behold, I am raining down for you bread from the heavens, and the people shall go out and gather a day’s portion every day, in order that I may test them, whether they will walk according to my instruction or not. And it shall be on the sixth day that they prepare what they bring in, and it shall be double what they gather day by day. And Moses and Aaron said to all the sons of Israel: At evening you shall know that YHWH has brought you out from the land of Egypt,

and in the morning you shall see the glory of YHWH, for he hears your grumblings against YHWH. And what are we, that you grumble against us? And Moses said: When YHWH gives you in the evening meat to eat, and in the morning bread to the full, because YHWH has heard your grumblings that you grumble against him—what are we? Your grumblings are not against us but against YHWH.

Then Moses said to Aaron, Say to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, Draw near before YHWH, for he has heard your grumblings. And it happened, as Aaron spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, that they turned toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of YHWH appeared in the cloud.

Then YHWH spoke to Moses, saying:

I have heard the grumblings of the sons of Israel. Speak to them, saying, At twilight you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be satisfied with bread; and you shall know that I am YHWH your God. And it came to pass in the evening that quail came up and covered the camp; and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp. And when the layer of dew went up, behold, on the surface of the wilderness a fine, flake-like thing, fine as frost on the ground. And the sons of Israel saw it and said each to his brother, What is it? for they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, It is the bread that YHWH has given you to eat.

This is the thing that YHWH has commanded: Gather of it, each one according to what he can eat; an omer per head, according to the number of your persons; each of you take it for those who are in his tent. And the sons of Israel did so, and gathered, some more and some less. And they measured it with the omer; he who gathered much had nothing over, and he who gathered little had no lack; each gathered according to what he could eat. And Moses said to them, Let no one leave any of it over until morning. But they did not listen to Moses; and some left of it until morning, and it bred worms and stank, and Moses was angry with them. And they gathered it morning by morning, each according to what he could eat; and when the sun grew hot, it melted. And it came to pass on the sixth day that they gathered double bread, two omers for each one; and all the leaders of the congregation came and told Moses. And he said to them, This is what YHWH has spoken: Tomorrow is a sabbath-rest, a holy sabbath to YHWH. Bake what you will bake, and boil what you will boil, and all that is left over lay up for yourselves to be kept until morning. And they laid it up until morning, as Moses commanded; and it did not stink, and no worm was in it. And Moses said, Eat it today, for today is a sabbath to YHWH; today you will not find it in the field.

Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day is a sabbath; in it there will be none. And it came to pass on the seventh day that some of the people went out to gather, and they did not find. And YHWH said to Moses, How long will you refuse to keep my commandments and my instruction?

See, for YHWH has given you the sabbath; therefore on the sixth day he gives you bread for two days. Stay, each man, in his place; let no man go out from his place on the seventh day. So the people rested on the seventh day. And the house of Israel called its name manna; and it was like coriander seed, white, and its taste was like wafers with honey. And Moses said, This is the thing that YHWH has commanded: Fill an omer of it to be kept for your generations, so that they may see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness when I brought you out from the land of Egypt. And Moses said to Aaron, Take a jar, and put there a full omer of manna, and set it before YHWH, to be kept for your generations.

As YHWH commanded Moses, so Aaron set it down before the Testimony, to be kept. And the sons of Israel ate the manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land; they ate the manna until they came to the edge of the land of Canaan. And the omer is a tenth of an ephah.
