REFLECTIONS FOOD FROM HEAVEN God sustained the people of Israel for forty years in the desert with manna sent down from heaven, and Moses doesn’t want them to forget it. God brought forth water from stone for them to drink, and Moses doesn’t want them to forget this, either. And Mo-ses tells them—twice—that the food that God sent was a food that neither they nor their ancestors before them had ever experienced before. Jesus too speaks of food come down from heaven, food that the Jewish people had never experienced before. Re-calling the manna in the desert, Jesus doesn’t want them to forget it either, explaining that he is the food and drink of eternal life. And Paul reiterates to the Corinthians and to all of us that in the bread and in the cup, we share in the body and blood of Christ.

REFLEJOS ALIMENTO CELESTIAL Dios sostentó al pueblo de Israel por cua-renta años en el desierto con maná venido del cielo, y Moisés no quiere que lo olvi-den. Dios hizo brotar agua de la roca para que bebieran, y Moisés tampoco quiere que olviden esto. Y Moisés se lo dice –dos veces—que el alimento que Dios envió era co-mida que ni ellos ni sus antepasados jamás habían proba-do antes. Jesús, también habla del pan venido del cielo, comida que el pueblo judío jamás había probado antes. Recordando el maná del desierto, Jesús tampoco quiere que ellos lo olvi-den, explicándoles que él es pan y bebida para la vida eterna. Y Pablo les reitera a los corintios y a todos noso-tros que en el pan y en la copa participamos en el Cuerpo y la Sangre de Cristo.
