2 And you shall remember the whole way that the LORD your God has led you these forty years in the wilderness, that he might humble you, testing you to know what was in your heart, whether you would keep his commandments or not.3 And he humbled you and let you hunger and fed you with manna, which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, that he might make you know that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD.4 Your clothing did not wear out on you and your foot did not swell these forty years.
Exodus 13
17 Iar de nu se ridica norul, nici ei nu plecau la drum până nu se ridica;18 Pentru că în tot timpul călătoriei, ziua stătea peste cort norul Domnului, iar noaptea se afla peste el foc, înaintea ochilor întregii case a lui Israel.
