Fußnoten
(a)16:3
They indeed desiring food, etc: He means the Egyptians; who were restrained even from that food which was necessary, by the frogs and the flies that were sent amongst them, and spoiled all their meats.(Challoner)
(b)16:3
But these: Viz., the Israelites.(Challoner)
(c)16:6
Sign of salvation: The brazen serpent, an emblem of Christ our Saviour.(Challoner)
(d)16:17
The fire had more force: Viz., when the fire and hail mingled together laid waste the land of Egypt. Ex. 9.(Challoner)
(e)16:20 The text does not say that the bread was prepared without labor, but rather that it is served without labor. These superlative descriptions of the bread from heaven refer to the Eucharist, even more so than to the manna in the desert.(Conte)
(f)16:24 The word tormenta can refer to torments, but it can also refer to the machines of war used to hurl stones and darts at the enemy. The word itself literally refers to the conflict of ancient warfare. In modern terms, we would similarly use the expression “to give someone flack,” using a term from warfare to describe a more abstract conflict.(Conte)
(g)16:25 The word nurse in this context means more caring for young children, rather than nursing someone back to health.(Conte)
(h)16:29 Or, unnecessary water, as in spilled water or as in runoff from the overflow of a stream.(Conte)
