Pasukim Alef through Yud

The people of Israel were walking through the desert and complaining to Moshe and Aharon. They spoke of sitting and eating bread in front of a stove. They were referring to their time as slaves in Egypt. They said, “You have brought us to starve in the congregation of death”. So Hashem said to Moshe “נְנִ֨י מַמְטִ֥יר לָכֶ֛ם לֶ֖חֶם מִן־הַשָּׁמָ֑יִם וְיָצָ֨א הָעָ֤ם וְלָֽקְטוּ֙ דְּבַר־י֣וֹם בְּיוֹמ֔וֹ לְמַ֧עַן אֲנַסֶּ֛נּוּ הֲיֵלֵ֥ךְ בְּתֽוֹרָתִ֖י אִם־לֹֽא, Behold! I am going to rain down for you bread from heaven, and the people shall go out and gather what is needed for the day so that I can test them, whether or not they will follow My teaching.”
