Contradiction with Exodus 16:8
This verse explains that it is not Moses and Aaron who are providing the Israelites with food but the Lord, emphasizing God's role in their sustenance, which aligns but could be seen as diminishing the apparent authority of Moses and Aaron highlighted in Exodus 16:6.
Exodus 16:8: And Moses said, [This shall be], when the LORD shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for that the LORD heareth your murmurings which ye murmur against him: and what [are] we? your murmurings [are] not against us, but against the LORD.
Contradiction with John 6:32
This verse contradicts by highlighting that it was not Moses who gave the true bread from heaven, but God, subtly minimizing the role of Moses mentioned in Exodus 16:6.
