MANNA PICTURES Christ’s HUMILITY — it was small (Exodus 16:14), the Lord of Glory became a baby, and even a servant.
MANNA PICTURES Christ’s ETERNITY — it was round (Exodus 16:14), which reminds us of the circle, symbol of His eternality; for Jesus Christ is eternal God (John 8:53-59).
MANNA PICTURES Christ’s PURITY — it was white (Exodus 16:31), He is sinless; He is the holy Son of God.
MANNA PICTURES Christ’s BEAUTY — it was sweet like honey (Exodus 16:31). “Taste and see that the Lord is good” (Psalm 34:8). Note in Numbers 11:4-8 that the “mixed multitude” that went with the Jews did not appreciate the taste of the manna but asked for the “leeks, onions, and garlic” of Egypt. They were not satisfied with simple manna. They “ground it, beat it, and baked it,” but then it tasted like “oil” and not like honey. There is a spiritual lesson here for us; we cannot improve upon the simple Word of God (Psalm 119:103).
MANNA PICTURES Christ’s AVAILABILITY – it was everywhere they went for 40 years! (Exodus 16:35). It was satisfying and strengthening, for the nation lived on manna for nearly forty years. All that we need for spiritual nourishment is Jesus Christ, God’s heaven-sent Bread. We are to feast on the Bread that will never leave us hungry.
