It was not to be found on the Sabbath 32. An omer of it is preserved On the sixth day The phrase "On the sixth day" refers to the day before the Sabbath, a day of preparation in the Jewish tradition. The Hebrew word for "sixth" is "shishi," which signifies completeness and preparation. Historically, the sixth day was a time for the Israelites to gather and prepare for the Sabbath, a day of rest ordained by God. This preparation underscores the importance of the Sabbath as a covenantal sign between God and His people, emphasizing rest and reliance on divine provision. when they prepare what they bring in it will be twice as much as they gather on the other days They shall prepare.--On the method of preparation see Numbers 11:8. It shall be twice as much.--Some suppose this to be a command--"Ye shall gather twice as much;" but it is more natural to take it as an announcement of a fact--"You will find that what you have gathered turns out to be twice as much." (So Kurtz, Kalisch, and Knobel.) A miraculous doubling of the quantity seems to be intended. (Comp. Exodus 16:22.) Verse 5. - On the sixth day. That a period of seven days was known to the Hebrews as a week appears from the story of Jacob and Laban (Genesis 29:27). But there is no distinct evidence that the year was as yet divided into weeks, much less that the several days of the week were as yet distinguished as the first, second, third day, etc. "The sixth day," here probably means (as Kalisch says), "the sixth day after' the first supply of the manna. They shall prepare. The preparation would be, first, by measurement (ver. 18), and then by pounding and grinding (Numbers 11:8). It shall be double. Some commentators suppose that in these words is implied an order that on the sixth day they should set themselves to gather a double quantity. But the natural meaning of the words is, that, having gathered the usual quantity, they should find, when they measured it, that, by miracle, the supply sufficient for one day was multiplied, so as to suffice for two. (So Kalisch, Knobel, Kurtz, and others.) This view is in harmony with verse 18, which tells of a miraculous expansion and diminution of the manna after it had been gathered, and with verse 22, which shows us "the rulers" surmised by the miracle of the sixth day.Parallel Commentaries ...
