Numbers 11:6 Context
4¶ And the mixt multitude that was among them, fell a lusting, and the children of Israel also wept againe, and said, Who shal giue vs flesh to eate? 5We remember the fish which wee did eate in Egypt freely: the cucumbers and the melons, and the leekes, and the onions, and the garlicke. 6But now our soule is dried away, there is nothing at all, besides this Manna, before our eyes. 7And the Manna was as Coriander seed, and the colour thereof as the colour of Bdelium: 8And the people went about, and gathered it, and ground it in milles, or beat it in a morter, and baked it in pans, and made cakes of it: and the taste of it was as the taste of fresh oyle.

Wesley's Notes for Numbers 11:6
11:6 Our soul - Either our life, as the soul signifies, #Gen 9:5|, or our body, which is often signified by the soul. Dried away - Is withered and pines away; which possibly might be true, through envy and discontent, and inordinate appetite.
