The manna was sent from God in the sense that it was God who was responsible for creating it on the earth; it did not physically float down from the throne of God in Heaven. Thus Christ's coming from Heaven is to be understood likewise; he was created on earth, by the Holy Spirit acting upon the womb of Mary (Lk.1:35).
Mana ilitoka kwa Mungu katika maana ya kuwa Mungu ndiye aliyehusika kuiumba duniani; katika umbile haikupeperuka toka juu kwa Mungu mbinguni na kufika chini. Basi Kristo kuja toka mbinguni ieleweke vivyo hivyo; aliumbwa duniani, kwa uwezo wa Roho Mtakatifu ndani ya tumbo la Mariamu (Luk. 1: 35).
