How did God provide bread for the Israelites in the wilderness?

• A. By sending quail.
• B. By providing bread from flour dropped from heaven.
• C. By sending manna.
• D. By giving them bread from their store.

Answer: (C)

Manna is the bread God provided in the wilderness. Exodus describes how God would rain bread from heaven and instruct the people to gather only enough for each day, with a double portion on the sixth day to prepare for the Sabbath, after which none would appear on the seventh day. This miraculous daily provision shows God’s care and trustworthiness, rather than relying on stored or self-made bread. Quail brought meat at times, but that doesn’t answer how bread was provided. And the idea of bread from their own store doesn’t fit the wilderness situation where daily sustenance came directly from heaven.
