8536. Verses 35-36. And the sons of Israel did eat the manna forty years, until they came to a land inhabited; they did eat the manna until they came unto the border of the land of Canaan. And an omer is the tenth part of an ephah. “And the sons of Israel did eat the manna forty years,” signifies the appropriation of the good of truth in the state of all temptations; “until they came to a land inhabited,” signifies before they came to heaven, where good is everywhere; “they did eat the manna until they came unto the border of the land of Canaan,” signifies that there was appropriation of good from truth by them until they came to the region of heaven; “and an omer is the tenth part of an ephah,” signifies the amount of the good then.
