Exodus 16:6 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 16:6

And Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of Israel

at even, then ye shall know that the Lord hath brought you out from the
land of Egypt:
that they were brought out they knew, but they make this to be an act and deed of Moses and Aaron, ( Exodus 16:3 ) whereas it was the work of the Lord; and at evening they should have a fresh proof of it, and that they were not brought forth to be killed with hunger, as they complained, by the quails coming up and covering their camp, whereby they would have flesh to eat, ( Exodus 16:12 ) .

Exodus 16:6 In-Context

4 Then the Lord said to Moses, "I am going to rain bread from heaven for you. The people are to go out each day and gather enough for that day. This way I will test them to see whether or not they will follow My instructions.

5 On the sixth day, when they prepare what they bring in, it will be twice as much as they gather on other days."

6 So Moses and Aaron said to all the Israelites: "This evening you will know that it was the Lord who brought you out of the land of Egypt;

7 in the morning you will see the Lord's glory because He has heard your complaints about Him. For who are we that you complain about us?"

8 Moses continued, "The Lord will give you meat to eat this evening and abundant bread in the morning, for He has heard the complaints that you are raising against Him. Who are we? Your complaints are not against us but against the Lord."
