Why did the manna stop after Israel crossed the Jordan?
After Israel crossed the Jordan and was ready to occupy the land, God said there would be no more manna. They were to get off the manna and eat the grain of the land. This marked the transition from waiting on God in the wilderness to eating the grain of the land.
Les teaches that once Israel had crossed the Jordan and was ready to occupy the land, God declared, 'No more manna.' They were to get off the manna and eat the grain of the land. Before this, in the nation's very simplistic beginnings, there was nothing else they could do but wait on God. Now, with the crossing behind them, they were to transition from waiting on God to eating the produce of the land.
