| Numbers 11:6 | Our soul is dry, our eyes behold nothing else but manna. | Dry, like people quite worn out for want of food. (Psalm101:5, 12; Lamentations 4:8.) --- Nothing. An exaggeration. We are disgusted with this light food. (Calmet) --- They wished not only for the taste, but also for the colour, of other meats. (Menochius) --- How often do we imitate their folly, when we are disgusted with the bread of life! (Haydock) |
