Exodus 16:30-36
30So the people never worked on the seventh day of the week.
31The Israelites called the food manna. It was like coriander seeds. It was white and tasted like wafers made with honey.
32Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded: Take two quarts of manna to be kept for your descendants. This way they will see the food that I gave you to eat in the desert when I brought you out of Egypt.”
33Moses said to Aaron, “Take a jar, put two quarts of manna in it, and put it in the Lord’s presence to be kept for your descendants.”
34Aaron put the jar of manna in front of the words of God’s promise to be kept there, as the Lord commanded Moses.
35The Israelites ate manna for 40 years until they came to a place to settle. They ate manna until they came to the border of Canaan.
36(Now, the standard dry measure at that time held 20 quarts.)
