Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full.

Ver. 25. Man did eat angels' food] Heb. the bread of the mighty, Pan de nobles (Hispan.); (Angels are called mighties, Isa 10:34 Rev 18:21); such delicate bread as might beseem angels to eat, if they did eat any at all; such as the poets feign to be their Nectar, and Ambrosia. Or, the bread of the mighty, sc. that mightily strengthened them.

He sent them meat to the full] Heb. meat taken in hunting; so called, because dainty as venison, or, quia semper ambulabant, et in via quasi eam venabantur, sc. Giosuè 1:11 (Aben Ezra).
