<p>10:3 <em>They did all eat the same spiritual food- </em>This was the manna, which the Lord in John 6 interprets as Him and His word. Perhaps the emphasis is upon &quot;the same&quot;- for the Corinthians were under the influence of false teachers, and there was only one food which would get them through the wilderness journey. Unless we too feed on the Lord Jesus, we shall perish in the journey to the Kingdom. Daily reading of the word, especially of the Gospel records, seems to me to be critical in our age. The food was &quot;spiritual&quot; but the Corinthians were not &quot;spiritual&quot; (3:1), even though chapter 1 begins by saying they had been given the Spirit. Unless we feed the Spirit, we too shall not be spiritual.</p>
