1 For I do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all went through the sea,
2 and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea,
3 and all ate the same spiritual food,
4 and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ.
5 But God was not pleased with the majority of them, for they were struck down in the desert.
6 Now these things happened as examples for us, so that we should not be desirers of evil things, just as those also desired them,
7 and not become idolaters, as some of them did, just as it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink, and stood up to play,”
