Manna.
The bread of heaven. Angel's food. A substance given from The Divine Being
directly to man. The Great Magical Agent. The Elixir of Life. The Holy Grail.
The Sangraal. The seed of Adam. The fruit from the Tree of Life, forbidden
for man to eat. Mystery of Mysteries, containing either the wisdom of the
ancients, or naught.
You be the judge.
"Exactly this secret teaching, this occult doctrine, transmitted mouth
to mouth in the bosom of the church since the time of the Apostles, is what
this opuscle has as its objective to expose. To raise for the reader the discrete
veil woven for centuries to cover these mysteries, we seek to bring to those
who are ignorant of it, the true Christian tradition, for them to know it,
and to understand it completely.
(L'Eucharistie of Clément de Saint-Marqc)
"Angel food is pure and rainbow colored like a prism" (Numbers
Ch 11:7)
"He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;
To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in
the midst of the paradise of God. (Revelation Ch 2:7)
"He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches;
To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give
him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth
saving he that receiveth it. (Revelation Ch 2:17)
Exodus Chapter 16:
13. And it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the
camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the host.
14. And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness
there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground.
15. And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is
manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the
bread which the LORD hath given you to eat.
31. And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna: and it was like
coriander seed, white; and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey.
32. And Moses said, This is the thing which the LORD commandeth, Fill an omer
of it to be kept for your generations; that they may see the bread wherewith
I have fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the land of
Egypt.
33. And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omer full of manna therein,
and lay it up before the LORD, to be kept for your generations.
34. As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony,
to be kept.
35. And the children of Israel did eat manna forty years, until they came
to a land inhabited; they did eat manna, until they came unto the borders
of the land of Canaan.
The Book of Psalms Chapter 78:
Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full.

Corinthians Chapter 10:
1: Moreover, brethren, I would not that ye should be ignorant, that all our
fathers were under the cloud, and all passed through the sea;
2: And were all baptized to Moses in the cloud and in the sea;
3: And all ate the same spiritual food;
4: And all drank the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual
Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.
5: But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown
in the wilderness.
6: Now these things were our examples, to the intent we should not lust after
evil things, as they also lusted.
7: Neither be ye idolaters, as some of them: as it is written, The people
sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.
8: Neither let us commit lewdness, as some of them committed, and fell in
one day three and twenty thousand.
9: Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed
by serpents.
10: Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were
destroyed by the destroyer.
11: Now all these things happened to them for examples: and they are written
for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.
12: Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth, take heed lest he fall.
13: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God
is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able;
but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able
to bear.
14: Wherefore, my dearly beloved, flee from idolatry.
15: I speak as to wise men; judge ye what I say.
16: The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood
of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of
Christ?
17: For we many are one bread, one body: for we are all partakers of that
one bread.
John Chapter 6:
47 In truth, in truth I say to you, those who believe in me have eternal
life.
48 I am the bread of life.
49 Your fathers, who have eaten the manna in the desert, they are dead.
50 This is the bread which is descended from heaven so that those who eat
of it never die.
51 I am the living bread which is descended from heaven, if anyone eats of
this bread, he lives eternally, and the bread I give is my flesh which I give
for the life of the world.
52 The Jews have disputes amongst themselves; how can this man give us of
his flesh to eat?
53 Jesus said to them "In truth, in truth, I say to you: if you eat of
the flesh of the Son of Man, and if you drink his blood, you will no longer
have life in yourselves.
54 He who eats of my flesh and drinks of my blood has eternal life, and I
shall resurrect him on the last day.
55 Because my flesh is truly a nourishment and my blood is truly a beverage."

the body of Christ!") - The Eucharist.
