And when the people had cried out to Moses, Moses prayed to the Lord, and the fire was consumed.
And he called the name of that place, ‘The Burning,’ because the fire of the Lord had burned against them.
So then, the mix of common people, who had ascended with them, were enflamed with desire, and sitting and weeping, with the sons of Israel joining them, they said, “Who will give us flesh to eat?
We remember the fish that we ate freely in Egypt; we call to mind the cucumbers, and melons, and leeks, and onions, and garlic.
Our life is dry; our eyes look out to see nothing but manna.”
Now the manna was like coriander seed, but with the color of bdellium.
And the people wandered about, gathering it, and they crushed it with a millstone, or ground it with a mortar; then they boiled it in a pot, and made biscuits out of it, with a taste like bread made with oil.
