25. Man did eat angels’ food. The
delicacies of kings were outdone, for the dainties of angels were supplied. It
was not for the priests, or the princes, that the manna fell; but for all the
nation, for every man, woman, and child in the camp; and there was sufficient
for them all, for he sent them meat to the full. God’s banquets are
never stinted; he gives the best diet, and plenty of it. Gospel provisions
deserve every praise that we can heap upon them; they are free, full, and
preeminent. If we have ever fed upon Jesus we have tasted better than angels’
food. It will be our wisdom to eat to the full of it, for God has so sent it
that we are not straitened in him, but in ourselves. Let us eat abundantly and
magnify the all-sufficient grace which supplies all their needs, according to
his riches in glory, by Christ Jesus.
