"Every week during their long sojourn in the wilderness the Israelites witnessed
a threefold miracle, designed to impress their minds with the sacredness of the
Sabbath: a double quantity of manna fell on the sixth day, none on the seventh,
and the portion needed for the Sabbath was preserved sweet and pure, when if any
were kept over at any other time it became unfit for use."
Patriarchs & Prophets p.296 E.G.W.

See, for that the LORD hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on
the sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye every man in his place,
let no man
go out of his place on the seventh day.
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.
Exodus 16:29,35
