Context of Exodus 16:19
17The Israelites did so, and they gathered – some more, some less. 18When they measured with an omer, the one who gathered much had nothing left over, and the one who gathered little lacked nothing; each one had gathered what he could eat. Moses said to them, “No one is to keep any of it until morning.” 20But they did not listen to Moses; some kept part of it until morning, and it was full of worms and began to stink, and Moses was angry with them. 21So they gathered it each morning, each person according to what he could eat, and when the sun got hot, it would melt.
