Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness. As it is written, 'He gave them bread out of heaven{Greek and Hebrew use the same word for "heaven", "the heavens", "the sky", and "the air".} to eat.'"
The source of the people’s loose quotation is probably Psalms 78:24. However there are also similarities to Nehemiah 9:15; Exodus 16:4; Exodus 16:15; and Psalms 105:40.
