Bread of Life

Elijah running for his life from Ahab and Jezebel is given the Angel bread to sustain him. Three times the angel tells him to eat and be sustained. Then powered by the holy food alone he makes the 40-day trip to mount Horeb to see God.

The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them.

O taste and see that the LORD is good; happy are those who take refuge in him.

Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.” 40 days is a miracle fast, 40 days is nothing! Jesus declares that we will never hunger or thirst after feasting on him. He is infinitely greater than the angel-bread manna. He is the bread of life!
