Why did they disobey over Manna and not Quail?

[Leaf473]

Brother, the greeting "happy Sabbath" is shorter than "enjoy the Sabbath" direct from the text. I reserve the word "delight" as the sentiment elevated to the Lord. We are to "enjoy the Sabbath" so that we can "delight" in "the Lord". Using direct quotes: "enjoy the Sabbath" so that "the Lord will be your delight" on the "Sabbath".

“Keep the Sabbath day holy. Don’t pursue your own interests on that day, but enjoy the Sabbath and speak of it with delight as the LORD’s holy day. Honor the Sabbath in everything you do on that day, and don’t follow your own desires or talk idly. Then the LORD will be your delight. I will give you great honor and satisfy you with the inheritance I promised to your ancestor Jacob. I, the LORD, have spoken!” (Isaiah 58:13-14 NLT)​

Not specific to the goal on the "Sabbath": to "enjoy the Sabbath" by not pursuing our own "interests" or following our own "desires" to make "the Lord" our "delight" on the "Sabbath". Something simple, like planning quality time with the family together on the Sabbath than during the rest of the week.

“Keep the Sabbath day holy. Don’t pursue your own interests on that day, but enjoy the Sabbath and speak of it with delight as the LORD’s holy day. Honor the Sabbath in everything you do on that day, and don’t follow your own desires or talk idly. Then the LORD will be your delight. I will give you great honor and satisfy you with the inheritance I promised to your ancestor Jacob. I, the LORD, have spoken!” (Isaiah 58:13-14 NLT)​

"Enjoy the Sabbath" sounds good!

On non Sabbath days other blessings from the scriptures could be used, it seems like.

I don't know if you've noticed, but I don't usually get on the forums this late at night. But I'm making a special exception tonight because I had this insight:
Is the reason that you use only a Sabbath-related blessing is because you feel that other blessings would distract from the Sabbath?

If that's the case, I could understand that! I wouldn't agree with it, but I could understand it.

Peace, my man!

Brother, I realize that you have blessed me and that I have not been grateful to bless you in return. My apologies! I will bless you as I wish to be blessed. May God be with you always! May He straighten your path and keep you always in the truth of Him so that you may be a blessing to others because He is with you. May the Lord grant you a long life, health and many children so that you can continue to share His word and influence the next generation with what He has allowed you to see. May God help you in all your spheres of influence to seize every opportunity to advance His cause so that you may build a treasure in heaven according to His good will for you. God bless!

“Don’t store up treasures here on earth, where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be. (Matthew 6:19-21 NLT)​
