   The masculine singular noun names the food Israel eats and receives: in Exodus 16:35 the APB renders that the sons of Israel “ate the manna,” while in Numbers 11:9 it renders that it fell on the camp when the dew fell at night. Exodus 16:31 describes its whiteness and honey-like taste, and Joshua 5:12 places its cessation alongside Israel's eating the produce of the land.

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the supplied verses, the APB regularly presents the term as “manna,” including food that is eaten, falls with the dew, is stored, and ceases. In Nehemiah 9:20 it uses “your manna”, so these renderings are read with the clause and supplied morphology.
