Jump to Previous Commandments Commands Instructions Laws Moses Orders Refuse RefusedJump to Next Commandments Commands Instructions Laws Moses Orders Refuse RefusedExodus 16 1. The Israelites come to Sin, and murmur for want of bread4. God promises them bread and meat from heaven, and they are rebuked 13. Quail and manna are sent 16. The ordering of manna 25. It was not to be found on the Sabbath 32. An omer of it is preserved (28) How long refuse ye to keep my commandments ?--The people had already broken one of the positive precepts with respect to the manna (see Exodus 16:20); now they broke another--in the spirit, at any rate--since they would have gathered had they found anything to gather. Thus they provoked God a second time; yet was He "so merciful, that He destroyed them not," but "turned His anger away, and did not stir up all His wrath" (Psalm 78:38). Apparently He made allowance for the ordinance being a new one, to which they were not yet accustomed.Verse 28. - How long refuse ye to keep my commandments! Though Moses is addressed, it is the people who are blamed. Hence the plural verb, "refuse ye." Already there had been one act of disobedience in connection with the manna (see ver. 20) - now there was another - when would such sinful folly come to an end? When would the people learn that they could gain nothing by disobedience? It was "long" indeed before they were taught the lesson. Parallel Commentaries ...
