Transliteration: manna
Phonetic Spelling: (man'-nah)
Short Definition: manna
Definition: (Hebrew), manna, the supernatural food eaten by the Israelites in the desert: of spiritual food.

3131 mánna – literally, "What is it?" – the question asked by the wandering Israelites in the OT when God gave them manna (divinely-sent bread wafers) (see Nu 11:6). 3131 /mánna ("necessary provisions") refers to what God provides to live in His preferred-will (cf. 2307 /thélēma).

[G. H. C. MacGregor, "There is evidence to show that Jewish theology regarded the giving of the manna as the miracle par excellence, the non plus ultra even for the Messiah. In fact, the Rabbis taught that Messiah would prove his authority by repeating just this miracle by which, they held, Moses had proved his. 'As was the first Redeemer,' so ran the Midrash, 'so shall be the final Redeemer; as the first Redeemer caused the manna to fall from heaven, even so shall the second Redeemer cause the manna to fall' " (The Gospel of John, London, 1928, pp 142-43; cf. Ecclesiastes Rabbah 1.9).]
