“Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.”
'Where am I to get meat to give to all this people? For they come weeping to me and say, "Give us meat to eat!"' — Moses returns to the concrete complaint: the people demand meat, and Moses cannot supply it. He is caught between the people's demands and God's silence on provision. The people's appeal to Moses ('give us meat') places him in an impossible position.
