0:00.0	Welcome to the Daily Blade. The Word of God is described as the sword of the spirit, the primary
0:07.2	spiritual weapon in the Christian's armor against the forces of evil. Your hosts are Joby Martin
0:12.8	and Kyle Thompson, and they stand ready to equip men for the fight. Let's sharpen up.
0:20.3	All right, guys, day two all week this week, I am aiming to increase the hunger that all of you have for the word of God.
0:26.8	So as men, we hunger for a lot of earthly things, but I want to elevate your desire to know God more by studying his word.
0:33.0	And I'm doing that by looking at different stories from the Bible that can help us see why that is important.
0:37.3	So today we're actually going to be in Exodus 16. But to set the foundation, so far in the book of
0:42.5	Exodus, we've seen Israel's enslavement in Egypt, the birth and calling of Moses, Moses's
0:47.9	confrontation with Pharaoh, which leads to the ten plagues, Israel's Exodus from Egypt,
0:52.9	God parting the Red Sea to protect them, and the early
0:56.2	testing of God's chosen people in the wilderness. So a lot's gone on. And then we get to Exodus 16.
1:01.6	Israel is free from Egypt, but they're not settled yet, right? So they're traveling through the

1:10.4	to run out of their provisions.
1:12.2	All right, now, Exodus 16, starting in verse 1.
1:15.0	They set out from Elam, and all the congregation of the people of Israel came to the wilderness of sin,
1:20.5	which is between Elam and Sinai on the 15th day of the second month after they had departed from the land of Egypt.
1:26.7	And the whole congregation of the people of Israel grumbled against Moses and departed from the land of Egypt. And the whole congregation of the
1:28.2	people of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness. And the people of Israel said to them,
1:33.7	would that we had died by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt when we sat by the meat pots
1:39.3	and ate bread to the fool, for you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger.
1:46.0	Then the Lord said to Moses, behold, I'm about to rain bread from heaven for you.
