Bible Comments

Our fathers ate manna — This sign Moses gave them. He gave them bread from heaven — From the lower sublunary heaven; to which Jesus opposes the highest heaven: in which sense he says seven times, John 6:32-33, John 6:38, John 6:50, John 6:58, John 6:62, that he himself came down from heaven.

John 6:31

31 Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.
