This morning I noticed the connection between Jesus hiding Himself and Hidden Manna.
John 8:58-59 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Then took they up stones to cast at Him: but Jesus hid Himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.
John 12:36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be children of light," These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide Himself from them.
Mark 7:17, 24-25 And when He was entered into the house from the people, His disciples asked Him concerning the parable. (24-25) And from thence He arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into an house, and would have no man know it: but He could not be hid. For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of Him, and came and fell at His feet:
Revelation 2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.
Matthew 7:22-23 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Thy name? and in Thy name have cast out devils? and in Thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity.

Jesus hid Himself...even while in the temple, as He does today. Who is the temple....
He is in the midst of us, of His temple, and yet some stone Him and He...passes by. How do they "stone Him" today?
1 Corinthians 3:16-17 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
He is in the midst of us, of His temple, and yet some stone Him and He...passes by. How do they "stone Him" today?
John 12:36 While ye have light, believe in the light, that ye may be children of light," These things spake Jesus, and departed, and did hide Himself from them.
Again...He hides Himself but tells us how He can be found...."believe in the light."
Mark 7:17, 24-25 And when He was entered into the house from the people, His disciples asked Him concerning the parable. (24-25) And from thence He arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into an house, and would have no man know it: but He could not be hid. For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of Him, and came and fell at His feet:
Here too He is away "from the people" but not His disciples for His disciples believe in the Light. He also goes to Tyre and Sidon....Satan's cities, but there, although most won't know Him, is one that "hears." She believed and "fell at His feet." She believed in the Light and He isn't hidden from those that fall at His feet.
He is the hidden Christ and Christ is...the Word...the Logos, so He is the hidden Word, the hidden manna. Even in His Temple of believers not all see His Light for as He was in their midst they stoned Him, as He, the hidden Word, is in our midst....some stone Him today. How?
He is the hidden Christ and Christ is...the Word...the Logos, so He is the hidden Word, the hidden manna. Even in His Temple of believers not all see His Light for as He was in their midst they stoned Him, as He, the hidden Word, is in our midst....some stone Him today. How?
Revelation 2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.
Those that overcome, those that believe in His Light, those that fall at His feet, are given the hidden manna....His Spirit reveals the spirit of the Word, the manna. There are those, in the temple, that stone those that have overcome...and they are again stoning Jesus for He dwells in them....
Matthew 7:22-23 Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Thy name? and in Thy name have cast out devils? and in Thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from Me, ye that work iniquity.
