Contextual Overview

⁹ [Like as] the children of Ephraim, which beyng harnessed & carying bowes: turned their backes in the day of battayle. ¹⁰ They kept not the couenaunt of God: and they woulde not walke in his law. ¹¹ But they forgat his workes: and his wonders which he had shewed them. ¹² Marueylous thinges dyd he in the sight of their fathers: in the land of Egypt, in the fielde of Zoan. ¹³ He deuided the sea and let them go thorowe: he made the waters to stande as on an heape. ¹⁴ In the day time also he led them with a cloude: and all the night through with a light of fire. ¹⁵ He cloued the harde rockes in the wildernes: & gaue them drinke therof, as it had ben out of the great deepe waters. ¹⁶ He brought running streames out of a stonie rocke: and caused waters to gushe downe, like as out of riuers. ¹⁷ Yet for all this they sinned still against hym: so that they prouoked the most hyghest in the wildernesse. ¹⁸ And they temped god in their heartes: in requiring meate for their lust.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So they did eat, and were well filled,..... Or "exceedingly filled" m, or too much, as some versions render it; they eat to excess, not merely to satisfy nature, but to gratify their sensual appetite: gluttony is a sin; it is an abuse of the creatures; it hurts the body by filling it with gross humours, and bringing diseases on it; it is injurious to the mind; the heart may be overcharged by it; it disposes it to sin; it leads to impiety, to atheism, and disbelief of a future state, which often go along with it, and ends in destruction, which is the case of those whose god is their belly:

for he gave them their own desire; or their lust n, what they lusted after, flesh; and they had as much of it as they would, though this was given in judgment; and a sad thing it is when God gives men a fulness of this world's things, and leaves them to the abuse of them, or sends leanness into their souls, and gives them up to their own hearts' lusts.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

So they did eat, and were well filled - The word rendered “well” here is intensive. It means that they were abundantly satisfied; that there was no lack; that they had the most ample supply.

For he gave them their own desire - He gave them exactly what they asked. He gave them flesh to eat as they had demanded; and he gave it to them in such quantities that no one could say that he had not enough.
