عنایات خدا بر بنی‌اسرائیل

برخی از مفسران گفته‌اند هنگامی که موسی(ع) بنی‌اسرائیل را از رود عظیم نیل عبور داد در بیابانی فرود آمدند آنها به موسی (ع) گفتند: ای موسی» ما را هلاک کردی؛ ما را از شهر و دیار آبادمان به بیابانی آوردی که نه سایه‌ای داردء نه درختی و نه آبی. خداوند ابری را فرستاد تا روزها بر آنها سایه بیفکند. شب‌ها هم برای آنها «مَنْ» (احتمالاً نوعی شیرة لذیذ) می‌فرستاد و آن را روی گیاهان و درختان و سنگ‌ها قرار می‌داد. به هنگام عصر نیز «سّلوی» (مرغ بریان) در سفرةٌ آنها قرار می‌گرفت. سنگی هم همراه موسی(ع) بود که با عصا به آن می‌زد و دوازده چشمه (به عدد قبایل بنی‌اسرائیل) از آن جاری می‌شد و هر قبیله از چشمةٌ مخصوص خود استفاده می‌کرد؛ چنان که در أَیة. همین سوره بدان اشاره شده است. > **پانوشت صفحه (منابع):** > ۱- نمونهء ج۰۱۶ ص ۱۲ > ۴ اقتباس از نمونه» ج0 ص ۲۵۵ ۵-اقتباس از المیزان» ج ص ۱۹۱ > ۲- نمونهء ج۸» ص ۳۷۵ > ۳ المیزان» چ ص ۱۹۰ > **Cited sources** (grade before any load-bearing use): Tafsīr Nemūneh, al-Mīzān.
