Nombres 11:9 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 11:9

And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night
As it usually, and even constantly did:

the manna fell upon it;
as constantly, and had thereby a clean place to fall on; and then another dew fell upon that, which kept it the cleaner still, and from any vermin creeping upon it; see ( Exodus 16:14 ) ; so careful was the Lord of this their provision, and so constantly every morning were they supplied with it: and which fell in the night when they were asleep, and at rest, and without any labour of theirs; and was ready to their hands when they arose, and had nothing to do but gather it; and yet were so ungrateful as to make light of it, and despise it.

Nombres 11:9 In-Context

7 Or la manne était comme de la semence de coriandre, et sa couleur, comme celle du bdellion.
8 Le peuple se dispersait et la ramassait; puis il la broyait avec les meules, ou la pilait dans un mortier, et la faisait cuire dans un chaudron, et en faisait des gâteaux; et le goût en était semblable à celui d'un gâteau à l'huile.
9 Et quand la rosée tombait la nuit sur le camp, la manne descendait dessus.
10 Moïse entendit donc le peuple qui pleurait dans ses familles, chacun à l'entrée de sa tente; et la colère de l'Éternel s'embrasa fortement, et Moïse en fut affligé.
11 Et Moïse dit à l'Éternel: Pourquoi as-tu affligé ton serviteur; et pourquoi n'ai-je pas trouvé grâce devant tes y eux, que tu aies mis sur moi la charge de tout ce peuple?
