REFLECTING ON GOD’S WORD
Unlike mortals, angels do not die. Nor do they need to eat
or drink. Without corruptible bodies, they live eternally
with God. But the psalm for today describes the manna
that the Israelites ate in the desert as “the bread of angels” (78:25). As the first reading tells us, it seemed to
them that it came down from heaven every night.
Through the manna, God gave them life when death
seemed imminent. Through the manna, their faith in
God’s eternal care for them was revived.
In the case of the Israelites, they received life by eating
the bread from heaven. And the life they were given allowed them to believe. In the case of the disciples of Jesus it’s the other way around. We must believe in Jesus as
“the true bread from heaven” (John 6:32) in order to receive the eternal life that he provides.
