6:16 is actually referencing Exodus 17:2-7, where the Israelites, not far removed from seeing the miracles that God performed in Egypt, began to immediately doubt His existence because they were thirsty.


Really good post overall and this quoted part is consistent with what my thoughts are. Wanting water (and provisions as Squirrel put it) is not necessarily wrong, but these needs and appetites are used here to show how the Israelites broke down and turned away from God due to the desires of the flesh... as happens to nearly everyone in this world who faces one temptation or another.

And your discussion of Jesus covers that angle quite well, imho.
