Context — The Jar of Manna
31Now the house of Israel called the bread manna. It was white like coriander seed and tasted like wafers made with honey.
32Moses said, “This is what the LORD has commanded: ‘Keep an omer of manna for the generations to come, so that they may see the bread I fed you in the wilderness when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.’”
33So Moses told Aaron, “Take a jar and fill it with an omer of manna. Then place it before the LORD to be preserved for the generations to come.”
34And Aaron placed it in front of the Testimony, to be preserved just as the LORD had commanded Moses. 35The Israelites ate manna forty years, until they came to a land where they could settle; they ate manna until they reached the border of Canaan.Cross References

Exodus 16:33 Summary
This verse, Exodus 16:33, tells us that Moses instructed Aaron to take a jar, fill it with an omer of manna, and place it before the Lord to be preserved for the generations to come. This was done to remember how God provided for the Israelites in the wilderness, just like He provided for them in Exodus 16:4-5. It's like keeping a special memento to remind us of God's love and care, and we can learn from this by trusting in God's daily provision, as seen in Matthew 6:11 and Luke 11:3. By doing so, we can show gratitude for God's provision and reverence His presence in our lives, just like the Israelites did in Exodus 25:8.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did Moses instruct Aaron to take a jar and fill it with an omer of manna?
Moses did this to obey the Lord's command, as seen in Exodus 16:32, to preserve the manna for the generations to come, so they may see the bread the Lord fed the Israelites in the wilderness when He brought them out of the land of Egypt, as a reminder of God's provision and faithfulness, just like the Lord provided manna in Exodus 16:4-5.
What is the significance of placing the jar of manna before the Lord?
Placing the jar of manna before the Lord, as seen in Exodus 16:33, signifies that the manna was a gift from God, and the Israelites were to acknowledge and reverence His provision, just like the Israelites were to reverence the Lord's presence in the Tabernacle, as seen in Exodus 25:8.
How does this verse relate to the Israelites' journey in the wilderness?
This verse is a part of the larger narrative of the Israelites' journey in the wilderness, where God provided for their needs, as seen in Exodus 16:1-36, and this preservation of manna serves as a reminder of God's faithfulness and provision throughout their journey, just like the Lord provided water in Exodus 17:1-7.
What can we learn from the Israelites' experience with manna?
We can learn about God's provision, faithfulness, and the importance of trusting in Him, just like the Israelites learned to trust in God's daily provision of manna, as seen in Exodus 16:4, and just as Jesus taught us to trust in God's daily provision in Matthew 6:11 and Luke 11:3.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways God has provided for me in my life, and how can I show gratitude for His provision, just like the Israelites showed gratitude for the manna?
- How can I apply the lesson of trusting in God's daily provision, as seen in the Israelites' experience with manna, to my own life, and what does Psalm 37:3-7 teach us about trusting in God's provision?
- What are some 'jars of manna' in my life that serve as reminders of God's faithfulness and provision, and how can I use them to encourage myself and others, just like the Israelites used the preserved manna to remember God's provision?
- How can I reverence and acknowledge God's presence in my life, just like the Israelites revered the Lord's presence in the Tabernacle, and what does Hebrews 13:5-6 teach us about God's presence in our lives?

Ellicott's Commentary on Exodus 16:33
(33) Lay it up before the Lord.—Comp. Exodus 16:33, where Aaron is said to have “laid it up before the Testimony,” i.e., the Two Tables. According to the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews, the Ark of the Covenant contained three things only—the tables, the pot of manna, and Aaron’s rod that budded (Hebrews 9:4). The deposit of the manna in so sacred a place may be accounted for by its typifying “the true bread from heaven” (John 6:32).
