Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 28. - How long refuse ye to keep my commandments! Though Moses is addressed, it is the people who are blamed. Hence the plural verb, "refuse ye." Already there had been one act of disobedience in connection with the manna (see ver. 20) - now there was another - when would such sinful folly come to an end? When would the people learn that they could gain nothing by disobedience? It was "long" indeed before they were taught the lesson.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(28) How long refuse ye to keep my commandments ?--The people had already broken one of the positive precepts with respect to the manna (see Exodus 16:20); now they broke another--in the spirit, at any rate--since they would have gathered had they found anything to gather. Thus they provoked God a second time; yet was He "so merciful, that He destroyed them not," but "turned His anger away, and did not stir up all His wrath" (Psalm 78:38). Apparently He made allowance for the ordinance being a new one, to which they were not yet accustomed.
