The People Complain
1 Now awhen the people complained, it displeased the Lord; bfor the Lord heard it, and His anger was aroused. So the cfire of the Lord burned among them, and consumed some in the outskirts of the camp.
2 Then the people acried out to Moses, and when Moses bprayed to the Lord, the fire was1 quenched.
3 So he called the name of the place1 Taberah, because the fire of the Lord had burned among them.
4 Now the amixed multitude who were among them1 yielded to bintense craving; so the children of Israel also wept again and said: c“Who will give us meat to eat?
5 aWe remember the fish which we ate freely in Egypt, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic;
6 but now aour whole being is dried up; there is nothing at all except this manna before our eyes!”

Numbers 11:1-6
Understand: They were not without something to eat that was really good for them. In another place the Bible calls this “angel’s food.” If angels really eat, that food does them really well! They do not die. This is just a little joke, but you see, the Israelites felt that they were entitled to something better than that.
