Nu 11:4
11:4 And the mixt {a} multitude that [was] among them fell a
     lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and
     said, Who shall give us flesh to eat?

     (a) Which were of those strangers that came out of Egypt
         with them, @Ex 12:38.

Nu 11:5
11:5 We remember the fish, which we did eat in Egypt {c} freely;
     the cucumbers, and the melons, and the leeks, and the
     onions, and the garlick:

     (c) For a final price, or good cheap.

Nu 11:6
11:6 But now our soul [is] {d} dried away: [there is] nothing at
     all, beside this manna, [before] our eyes.

     (d) For the greedy lust of flesh.

Nu 11:7
11:7 And the manna [was] as coriander seed, and the colour
     thereof as the colour of {e} bdellium.

     (e) Which is a white pearl, or precious stone.

Nu 11:11
11:11 And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou
      afflicted thy servant? and wherefore have I not found {f}
      favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all
      this people upon me?

      (f) Or, how have I displeased you?

Nu 11:12
11:12 Have I {g} conceived all this people? have I begotten
      them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy
      bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto
      the {h} land which thou swarest unto their fathers?

      (g) Am I their father, that no one may have charge of them
          but I?
      (h) Of Canaan promised by another to our fathers.

Nu 11:15
11:15 And if thou deal thus with me, kill me, I pray thee, out
      of hand, if I have found favour in thy {i} sight; and let
      me not see my wretchedness.

      (i) I would rather die than see my grief and misery daily
          increased by their rebellion.

Nu 11:17
11:17 And I will come down and talk with thee there: {k} and I
      will take of the spirit which [is] upon thee, and will put
      [it] upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the
      people with thee, that thou bear [it] not thyself alone.

      (k) I will distribute my spirit among them, as I have done
          to you.

Nu 11:18
11:18 And say thou unto the people, {l} Sanctify yourselves
      against to morrow, and ye shall eat flesh: for ye have
      wept in the ears of the LORD, saying, Who shall give us
      flesh to eat? for [it was] well with us in Egypt:
      therefore the LORD will give you flesh, and ye shall eat.

      (l) Prepare yourselves that you may be clean.

Nu 11:20
11:20 [But] even a whole month, until it come out at your
      nostrils, and it be loathsome unto you: because that ye
      have {m} despised the LORD which [is] {n} among you, and
      have wept before him, saying, Why came we forth out of
      Egypt?

      (m) Or, cast him off, because you refused manna, which he
          appointed as most suitable for you.
      (n) Who leads and governs you.

Nu 11:21
11:21 And Moses said, The people, {o} among whom I [am], [are]
      six hundred thousand footmen; and thou hast said, I will
      give them flesh, that they may eat a whole month.

      (o) Of whom I have charge.

Nu 11:25
11:25 And the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and
      took of the spirit that [was] upon him, and gave [it] unto
      the seventy elders: and it came to pass, [that], when the
      spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not {p}
      cease.

      (p) From that day the spirit of prophecy did not settle
          them.

Nu 11:28
11:28 And Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, [one] of
      his {q} young men, answered and said, My lord Moses,
      {r} forbid them.

      (q) Or, a young man whom he had chosen from his youth.
      (r) Such blind zeal was in the apostles,
          @Mr 9:38, Lu 9:44.

Nu 11:32
11:32 And the people stood up all that day, and all [that]
      night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails:
      he that gathered least gathered ten {s} homers: and they
      spread [them] all abroad for themselves round about the
      camp.

      (s) Of Homer, read @Le 27:16 also it signifies a
          heap, as in @Ex 8:14 Jud 15:16.
