📚 Historical Context
In the book of Exodus, the Israelites were wandering in the desert after their escape from slavery in Egypt, and they began to complain about having no food. God responded by miraculously providing manna, a bread-like substance, each morning, with instructions that each person should gather only enough for their daily needs to teach them dependence on Him. When the people went out to collect it, some gathered more and others less, illustrating their varying levels of faith and obedience in following God's directives.
