Origen, on Exod 16:14
Origen · c. A.D. 184–253
Exod 16:14 · Douay-Rheims
“And when it had covered the face of the earth, it appeared in the wilderness small, and as it were beaten with a pestle, like unto the hoar frost on the ground.”
On this verse:
“But if there are some who have come out of Egypt and, following the pillar of fire and cloud, are entering the wilderness, then he comes down from heaven to them and offers them a small, thin food, like to the food of angels; so that "man eats the bread of angels."”
