This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Num_11:32 And the people stood up all that day, and all [that] night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten homers: and they spread [them] all abroad for themselves round about the camp.
Ver. 32. And they spread them.] They fed without fear, {Jdg_1:12} though foretold they should pay dear for these murdering morsels; {Num_11:20} that which they ate being sauced, and that which they drank being spiced, with the bitter wrath of God. {Job_20:23}
They gathered the quails.] Which they might the more easily do, if that be true which some {a} write, that the Arabian Gulf breedeth great store of quails, which fly low usually, so as they may easily be taken up with one’s hand.
{a} Drusius.
