In the book of Exodus, the Israelites were wandering in the wilderness after their miraculous escape from slavery in Egypt, where they faced severe hardships including a lack of food. They began to complain and murmur against Moses and Aaron, doubting God's ability to provide for them. In response, God instructed Moses to have Aaron gather the people so they could see His provision firsthand, as He had heard their grievances.
