Exode 16:17 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 16:17

And the children of Israel did so
They went out of the camp in the morning when it was fallen, and gathered it; which is expressive of believers going out of the camp, leaving the world, and all behind them for Christ; and of their going out of themselves to him, and of their going in and out, and finding pasture and food for their souls in him to live upon: and gathered some more, some less; some that were more robust and strong, that were more active and diligent, gathered in more than others; which may denote the different degree and exercise of faith in God's people; some are strong in it, and others weak; some attain to a greater degree of knowledge of Christ, and receive more grace from him, and have more spiritual peace, joy, and comfort in believing, and others less; see ( Romans 15:1 Romans 15:13 ) .

Exode 16:17 In-Context

15 Les enfants d'Israël regardèrent et ils se dirent l'un à l'autre: Qu'est-ce que cela? car ils ne savaient pas ce que c'était. Moïse leur dit: C'est le pain que L'Eternel vous donne pour nourriture.
16 Voici ce que l'Eternel a ordonné: Que chacun de vous en ramasse ce qu'il faut pour sa nourriture, un omer par tête, suivant le nombre de vos personnes; chacun en prendra pour ceux qui sont dans sa tente.
17 Les Israélites firent ainsi; et ils en ramassèrent les uns plus, les autres moins.
18 On mesurait ensuite avec l'omer; celui qui avait ramassé plus n'avait rien de trop, et celui qui avait ramassé moins n'en manquait pas. Chacun ramassait ce qu'il fallait pour sa nourriture.
19 Moïse leur dit: Que personne n'en laisse jusqu'au matin.
