Exodus 16:4 - 17:16

ExodusSteve Gregg
Exodus 16:4-17:16 tells the story of the Israelites receiving manna from God in the wilderness, highlighting the concept of voluntary sharing and dependency on God's provision. The text also explores the importance of obedience to God's commands and the challenges of living solely on God's provision for 40 years. Sabbath-keeping and the significance of Moses holding his hand up with the rod of God during the battle with the Amalekites are also discussed, with the latter believed to signify a posture of prayer and supplication.
