Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 25. - Man did eat angels' food; literally, bread of the mighty ones, by which the LXX. and most commentators understand "angels" to be meant. "Angels' food" may mean either the actual food on which angels subsist, or food supplied by the ministration of angels, and derived from their dwelling place. It cannot be laid down dogmatically that angels require no food. He sent them meat to the full (comp. Exodus 16:3, where the Israelites contrast with their wretched life in the wilderness their life in Egypt, where they "did eat bread to the full").

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(25) Angels' food.--See margin, and comp. Wisdom Of Solomon 16:20. LXX. and Vulgate, "angels' bread." Some explain, after Job 24:22; Job 34:30, lordly food, such as nobles eat--here, quails. But in connection with "food from heaven," the popular idea of angels' food which poetry reluctantly gives up may be retained.
