31. The people of Israel called the food manna. The manna was like small white seeds. It tasted like wafers made with honey.
32. Then Moses said, “The Lord said, ‘Save two quarts of this food for your descendants. Then they can see the food that I gave you to eat. I did this in the desert when I brought you out of Egypt.’”
33. Moses told Aaron, “Take a jar and fill it with two quarts of manna. And save this manna for your descendants.”
34. So Aaron did what the Lord had commanded Moses. Aaron put the jar of manna in front of the Ark of the Covenant. He did this so it could be kept.
35. The Israelites ate manna for 40 years. They ate it until they came to the land where they settled. They ate manna until they came to the edge of the land of Canaan.
36. The measure they used for the manna was two quarts. It was one-tenth of an ephah.
