Original Hebrew Scripture from Psalm 149
But when they measured it with an omer, whoever gathered much had nothing left over, and whoever gathered little had no lack. Each of them gathered as much as he could eat.
Exodus 16:18
This is a statement about salvation, not economics. The manna is a picture of Messiah #yeshua. There was no work involved in collecting the manna. You just had to walk outside and scoop it up. You could work more if you wanted, but you'd never get more manna no matter how much you worked.
Salvation is a free gift available to anyone willing to accept Yeshua's proposal. More obedience or getting "more #jesus" won't make you any more saved.
This is what YHWH has commanded: ‘Gather of it, each one of you, as much as he can eat. You shall each take an omer, according to the number of the persons that each of you has in his tent.’
Exodus 16:16
Each person that gathered was gathering for himself, but also for his family. If manna was intended as an allegory of #yeshua, the ultimate Bread of Life, this adds some depth to Paul's statements about families being sanctified by the faith of a single member. We are each responsible for our own submission to Messiah, but our submission overflows and also feeds the members of our household.
Egypt learned about God from the plagues.
Israel learned about God from the plagues, the wilderness, manna, rock, quail, and brass serpent.
Don't be too worried when the universe seems to be against you. Troubles are often a sign that God loves you and wants you to learn something important.
When the people of Israel saw the manna, they said to one another, “What is it?” For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, “It is the bread that YHWH has given you to eat.”
Exodus 16:15
Water is symbolic of God's Spirit. The manna in the wilderness, bread from Heaven, was given by dew, and #yeshua, the Bread of Life sent from Heaven, was given by the Holy Spirit. Israel didn't recognize the manna when God sent it to save them, and neither did they recognize Yeshua when they saw him.

The office of prophet knows no gender. Consider that Moses, Miriam, Samuel, Deborah, Elijah, and Huldah were all prophets. But also remember that there is no authority inherent in the prophet himself, only in the word that the prophet relays from God. However, that doesn't mean you can disrespect the prophet or prophetess. Complaining against God's prophet is complaining against God. What is the Law of Moses, after all, except the Law of God?
Exodus 16:7
