AC 8450. Verses 1-15.
And it was in the evening
that the quail came up,
and covered the camp;
and in the morning
there was a deposit of dew round about the camp.
And the deposit of dew went up,
and behold upon the faces of the wilderness
a small round thing, small as the hoar frost upon the earth.
And the sons of Israel saw,
and they said a man to his brother, What is this [Man hoc]?
for they knew not what it was.
And Moses said unto them,
This is the bread which Jehovah has given you to eat.
(Exodus 16:1-15)
"And it was in the evening,"
means the end of the state;
"that the quail came up,"
means natural delight through which is good;
"and covered the camp,"
means that it filled the natural of the man;
"and in the morning,"
means the beginning of a new state;
"there was a deposit of dew round about the camp,"
means the truth of peace adjoining itself;
"and the deposit of dew went up,"
means the insinuation of truth;
"and behold upon the faces of the wilderness,"
means a new will part;
"a small round thing,"
means the good of truth in the first formation;
"small as the hoar frost upon the earth,"
means truth in the form of good consistent and flowing;
"and the sons of Israel saw,"
means a perception;
"and they said a man to his brother,"
means amazement;
"What is this? for they knew not what it was,"
means at what was not known;
"and Moses said unto them,"
means information through truth from the Divine;
"This is the bread which Jehovah has given you to eat,"
means that this is the good which must be appropriated
and make their life,
in the supreme sense that this is the Lord in you.
