What happensPermalink
Moses reminds Israel that God protected and provided for them in the wilderness, and He will do so in the Promised Land too. They should not forget and think that they were the reason for their prosperity.
Why it mattersPermalink
The reason for the manna was to teach Israel that “man does not live by bread alone” but by God’s provision; Jesus rebuked Satan with these words when He was in the wilderness as Israel had been.
Key versePermalink
“And he humbled you and let you hunger and fed you with manna, which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, that he might make you know that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.”
