But even a whole month, until it come out at your nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you: because that ye have despised the LORD which is among you, and have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of Egypt?
But for a whole month, until it comes out of your nose and you are sick of it, because you have rejected the LORD who is with you, and have cried to him saying, 'Why did we ever leave Egypt?'
God is telling the Israelites they will get so much of what they complained for that they'll become sick of it, because they rejected Him and wished they had never left Egypt.
📚 Historical Context
The Israelites had been complaining about eating only manna in the wilderness and crying for meat like they had in Egypt. Moses had brought their complaints to God, who promised to give them meat - but as both a blessing and a judgment. This was part of their journey from Egypt to the Promised Land, where their constant complaining tested God's patience.
