Why did God feed Israel with manna? Because the miracle wasn’t just about food—it was about Jesus Christ. The “bread from heaven” in Exodus is one of the clearest symbols of Christ in the entire Old Testament. In this episode of Jesus Christ in Scripture: Finding Christ on Every Page, Tammy Uzelak Hall and Dr. Donald W. Parry explore the powerful story of manna in the wilderness and how it points directly to Jesus Christ. After witnessing the miracle of the Red Sea, the Israelites quickly begin to murmur and complain. In response, Jehovah sends manna—bread from heaven—to sustain them every single day. But this miracle was about more than food. Just as manna sustained Israel in the wilderness, Jesus Christ is the bread that gives eternal life.
