Joshua 5:10-12

10 The people of Israel camped at Gilgal in the Jericho plain. There they celebrated the Passover on the evening of the fourteenth day of the month.

11 On the day after the Passover, they ate some of the produce of the land, unleavened bread and roasted grain.

12 The day after that, the manna stopped. The people of Israel never had manna again. That year they began to eat the crops that grew in Canaan.
