Contextual Overview

9 The sons of Ephraim - armed bowmen, Turned in the day of battle; 10 They kept not the covenant of God, And, in his law, refused to walk; 11 And forgat His doings, And his wonders which he had showed them: 12 In presence of their fathers, wrought he, wondrously, - In the land of Egypt - the field of Zoan: 13 He clave the sea, and caused them to pass through, And reared up the waters like a mound; 14 And led them, by a cloud, in the daytime, And all the night, by a light of fire; 15 He used to cleave rocks in the desert, And let them drink as out of mighty deeps; 16 And he brought forth streams out of the cliff, And caused waters to flow down, like rivers. 17 But again, once more sinned they against him, Resisting the Most High in a land of drought: 18 They put GOD to the proof in their heart, By asking food to their mind:

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he let it fall in the midst of their camp,.... Or, "his camps" l; the four camps of Israel; for so many there were, Numbers 2:1 or the camp of God, where he dwelt, and before which he went as the General, Leader, and Commander of them; in the midst of this, or by it, by the side of it, Numbers 11:31, the flesh or feathered fowl fell, so that they had no trouble to fetch it in; and here it fell by the order and direction of the Lord himself; he caused it to fall, without whose knowledge and will a sparrow does not fall to the ground, Matthew 10:29. These creatures fell either, as some think, being wearied with their flight over the Red sea; or through their wings being broken by the vehemency of the wind that brought them, as others; or by the moistness of the south wind, which wetted their wings, and made them flag and fall; but, by whatever means this was done, it was so ordered by the Lord that they should fall, and fall just in the place where they did:

round about their habitations; for the space of a day's journey on every side, where they lay in heaps, here and there, two cubits high,

Numbers 11:31, so that they could gather them with great ease, and had no need of arrows to shoot at them, nor nets to spread for them; they were ready at hand, and in great plenty.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And he let it fall in the midst of their camp ... - It was brought to their very doors; they had not to go and seek it abroad.
