Exodus 16:22-30
Excerpted from: Pentecost and Time

So here is the first extended passage about the Sabbath since Genesis 2. God said He rested on the seventh day, He made the Sabbath. But in between there and here, there is precious little about the Sabbath and what Exodus 16 does is show us that the Israelites, as was their want, they were out of sync with God on this very fundamental point. They were treating the Sabbath like an ordinary day, and their treating of the Sabbath as an ordinary day receives God's immediate and angry censure. "How long do you refuse to keep My commandments and laws?" It was like God thundered out of the cloud. "Look, there are people trying to pick up manna that's not even there. Didn't you hear what I said? If you want to be in sync with Me, don't do that on the Sabbath!"
