Strong's Lexicon man: Manna Original Word: מָאן Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root מָה (mah), meaning "what" or "what is it?" Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G3131 (μάννα, manna): Used in the New Testament to refer to the manna provided in the wilderness, as seen in John 6:31-49 and Hebrews 9:4. Usage: The term "manna" refers to the miraculous food provided by God to the Israelites during their 40-year journey in the wilderness after the Exodus from Egypt. It is described as a small, round substance that appeared on the ground each morning, which the Israelites gathered and used to make bread. Manna is often associated with God's provision and sustenance. Cultural and Historical Background: Manna is a significant symbol in the Hebrew Bible, representing God's direct intervention and care for His people. It was provided daily, except on the Sabbath, and was a test of obedience and faith for the Israelites. The gathering of manna was regulated by specific instructions, emphasizing reliance on God's provision. Manna ceased when the Israelites entered the Promised Land, marking the end of their wilderness period.
