Exodus 16:31-33
New International Version
31 The people of Israel called the bread manna.[a](A) It was white like coriander seed and tasted like wafers made with honey. 32 Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Take an omer of manna and keep it for the generations to come, so they can see the bread I gave you to eat in the wilderness when I brought you out of Egypt.’”
33 So Moses said to Aaron, “Take a jar and put an omer of manna(B) in it. Then place it before the Lord to be kept for the generations to come.”
