The Rebbe says:
1. This week’s Torah portion discusses the Manna which fell from Heaven for the Jewish people.
2. Regarding the Manna the Talmud says:
“It is written in one verse, ‘When the dew would descend upon it’, which implies that the Manna fell in the camp itself, and it is written elsewhere, ‘And the people shall go out and collect each day’s portion of Manna’, which implies that the Manna fell just outside the camp, and it is written in yet another verse, ‘The people would roam and collect it’, which implies that they had to wander far from the camp before encountering the Manna’.
How do we reconcile these three conflicting verses?
