Quail Cover The Evening Camp

In response to the grumbling of the starving Israelites, Yahweh promised to rain bread from heaven. However, before the morning bread arrived, God provided meat in the evening. A massive flock of quail came up and completely covered the camp, demonstrating that the Lord hears the complaints of His people and responds with overwhelming provision.

"So it happened at evening that the quails came up and covered the camp, and in the morning there was a layer of dew around the camp."
— Exodus 16:13
