For The Life Of The World

Here is another antique Sunday School card, showing the Manna that God sent to feed the Hebrews during their exodus out of slavery in Egypt.

The associated Bible reading is Exodus 16:1-15. God sent them Manna in the mornings and Quail in the evenings that they could gather each day for their "daily bread and meat". Except on Fridays, when twice as much fell, so that they could gather enough for the Sabbath too and not have to work on the Sabbath.

The Golden Text of the day is the words of Our Lord Jesus as recorded in John 6:51:

“I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.“
