In the wilderness, the Children of Israel moaned and complained about the lack of meat in their diet. God brought a huge flock of quail, and they became satiated. God told them they would eat till it came out their noses. The Gollum-like figure has feathers protruding from his nostrils.
We have our own cravings and addictions. They cause us to grovel on our knees, and make us sick. Christ, the bondage-breaker can set us free.
