Salmi 78:20

Ecco, percosse la roccia, le acque sgorgarono e i torrenti strariparono; può dare anche il pane? può fornire carne al suo popolo?

ver. 20. Ecco, percosse la roccia, ecc. ] E così ha mostrato la sua potenza; non possiamo negarlo; ma ora per sua volontà.

Can he give bread also?] They should have said, Will he serve our lusts? but that they were ashamed to say.

Can he provide flesh for his people?] i.e. Dainty and delicate flesh, such as is that of quails, meat for a king; for they carried their cattle out of Egypt with them; and so they could not be without ordinary flesh, too good for such unthankful miscreants.
