I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard and perceived behind me a loud voice disclosing things to me as the sound of a trumpet. “ I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard ( akouo: hearken, give audience, hearer, not deaf, to attend to, consider what is or has been said, understand, perceive, comprehend ) behind me a loud voice ( phone : sound, speech, tongue, a disclosure ) like the sound of a trumpet. “ I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like the sound of a trumpet. even if it comes in the form of something you’re just, well, tired of “eating”. Declare the awesome works of His hands and see how He’s caring for you…. Today, choose to reflect on what the LORD has done on your behalf. The key here is that within these moments that we too have in common with these men and women, we choose to put on the mind of Christ. And who can blame them, right? They were growing weary of eating the same old manna as the days previous. I find it interesting that despite all that the Israelites saw the LORD do on their behalf, in this instance they chose to call to mind the cravings of their fleshly bodies. There is nothing at all to look at except this manna. The collection of people who were among them had greedy lusts and cravings and also the sons of Israel wept again and said, “Who will give us meat to eat? We choose to call to mind the fish which we used to eat free in Egypt, the cucumbers and the melons and the leeks and the onions and the garlic, but now our appetite is gone. There is nothing at all to look at except this manna.’ ” “ The rabble ( 'acpecuph: mixed multitude, collection of people ) who were among them had greedy desires ( 'avah: lusts, longings, cravings ) and also the sons of Israel wept again and said, ‘Who will give us meat to eat? We remember ( zakar : mindful, think on, bring to remembrance, call to mind ) the fish which we used to eat free in Egypt, the cucumbers and the melons and the leeks and the onions and the garlic, but now our appetite is gone. There is nothing at all to look at except this manna.’ ” (NASB) “ The rabble who were among them had greedy desires and also the sons of Israel wept again and said, ‘Who will give us meat to eat? We remember the fish which we used to eat free in Egypt, the cucumbers and the melons and the leeks and the onions and the garlic, but now our appetite is gone.
