Since this opportunity may never come again, I will use the
chance to agree with Peter. Paul mentions numerous times
that events of the Old Testament were but a "foreshadowing".
Peter Kirk's "physical vs. spiritual sustenance" theory
is theologically proven out (again) in John 7 where
Jesus speaks toward the physical manna consumed
in the wilderness by those who "died"; this Jesus
does, in comparison to the spiritual manna which
Christ offered to those "who should not perish".
