Psalms 78:23-25
command <06680> [Though.]
opened <06605> [opened.]
rained <04305> [had rained.]
grain ... heaven <08064 01715> [the corn of heaven.]
The manna fell about their camp in the form of seeds; and as it appeared to come down from the clouds, it was not improperly termed {degan shamayim,} the corn of heaven or heavenly grain. See notes on Ex 16:22, 31.
Man <0376> [Man, etc.]
Or, Every one did eat the bread of the mighty. {Lechem abbeerim,} "bread of the mighty:"--they ate such food as could only be expected at the tables of the rich and great;--the best, the most delicate food. Or, it might be so called because it rendered the people healthy and vigorous, and fit for their marches.
sent <07971> [he sent.]
