Manna is a type of Christ as the heavenly food enabling God's people to go His way.

约翰在启示录也多次说到吃。在启示录二章七节主耶稣说，“得胜的，我必将神乐园中生命树的果子赐给他吃。”吃生命树，就是享受基督作我们生命的供应。神原初的心意是要人吃生命树。（创二9，16。）但因着人堕落了，生命树就向人封闭。（创三22～24。）藉着基督的救赎，接触生命树（就是神自己在基督里作人生命）的路再次向人打开。
（来十19～20。）

在启示录二章十七节主耶稣说，“得胜的，我必将那隐藏的吗哪赐给他。”吗哪豫表基督是那使神子民有能力走祂道路的属天粮食。以色列人在旷野的那些年日中吃了吗哪。（出十六14～16，31。）有分于隐藏的吗哪，实在就是藉着吃基督而享受祂。

John also has much to say concerning eating in the book of Revelation. In Revelation 2:7 the Lord Jesus says, "To him who overcomes, to him I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God." To eat of the tree of life is to enjoy Christ as our life supply. It was God's original intention that man should eat of the tree of life (Gen. 2:9, 16). But due to the fall of man the tree of life was closed to him (Gen. 3:22-24). Through the redemption of Christ, the way to touch the tree of life, which is God Himself in Christ as life to man, has been opened again (Heb. 10:19-20). 

In Revelation 2:17 the Lord Jesus says, "To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna." Manna is a type of Christ as the heavenly food enabling God's people to go His way. The children of Israel ate of manna during their years in the wilderness (Exo. 16:14-16, 31). To partake of the hidden manna certainly is to enjoy Christ by eating Him.
