A search of Numbers 11:1-10:
The Lord became displeased when He heard the children of Israel complain; so displeased, in fact, that He consumed them in the utmost parts of the camp with fire (11:1). When the people cried to Moses, who, in turn, prayed to the Lord, the fire stopped (11:2). "And he called the name of the place Taberah: because the fire of the Lord burnt among them" (11:3).
"And the mixt multitude that was among them fell a lusting: and the children of Israel also wept again, and said, Who shall give us flesh to eat" (11:4)? The children of Israel had grown dissatisfied with only the manna to eat; they wanted meat to go with it (11:4,6). Israel remembered the days when they were in Egypt where they could freely eat fish, cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions and garlic (11:5). "Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent: and the anger of the Lord was kindled greatly; Moses also was displeased (11:10).
