Haydock's commentary
Plague of fire, ver. 3, Psalm lxxvii. 21. (Cornelius a Lapide)
Failed, after the month was expired. (Menochius)
They had been accustomed to live upon manna, which was a light food, during the space of a year; and now eating greedily of this flesh, their stomachs were overcharged, and they died of an indigestion. (Calmet)
The Rabbins say, God punished their gluttony by death, and obliged the rest of the Hebrews to abstain from all flesh, except from that of the peace-offerings, till they entered the promised land. (Selden, Syn. 2, 4.)
