Manna is considered to be a substance provided miraculously by God for the Israelites to eat while in the wilderness.

Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day

It was not something that they were previously familiar with, as they asked what it was when they first saw it. (The word Manna itself in Hebrew means 'What is it?') It was similar to frost in appearance, and tasted like oil and honey wafers. It rapidly deteriorated and could not be stored long

"Manna" is a word that comes to English from Hebrew, by way of King James' translating committee.

The original Hebrew word found in Exodus is pronounced "MAHN" (מן). It's used as a proper noun in the Torah.

A brief description in the Torah verse of where the word came from, and why the Israelites referred to the

edible material with that name, implies that the word includes an element of quizzical non-recognition, but

there's no simple direct translation.
