Shared words: in the wilderness

'Manna' appears at exactly these two verses in the record; both are the manna clause of an Exodus recital used to argue present deliverance. Corpus-wide the word is the common Exodus term — nineteen corpus verses, seventeen of them across Exodus 16, Numbers 11, Deuteronomy 8, Joshua 5:12, Nehemiah 9:20, Psalms 78:24, John 6, Hebrews 9:4, and Revelation 2:17 (the record's two complete the nineteen) — so the shared recital-use, not the word, is the point. Companion to mos-limhi-redsea-dry-ground.
