Revelation 2:17
“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows except him who receives it."

Could that be an allusion to what was laid up in the pot in the Holy of Holies inside the Ark of the Covenant (Exo 16:32-33; He:9:4)?

The hidden manna is spiritual understanding, wisdom and knowledge of the word. Not the letter which is available to all but the spirit of the word given to overcomers. They/we are given eyes and ears.
Luke 8:10 And He said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.
2 Corinthians 3:6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
