Nicodemus said to him, “How can these things be?” Jesus answered him, “Are you the teacher of Israel and yet you do not understand these things? Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen, but you do not receive our testimony. If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things? No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man.

Ordinary bread [''bread from the earth''] which is the product of hard physical labor, is a metaphor for the ''revealed'' interpretations of the Torah [nigleh] found in the Talmud, which require arduous analysis, questioning etc.

On the other hand, manna [''bread from Heaven''] represents the mystical teachings of the Torah, which are of such a ''heavenly'' nature that there is no disagreement or argument.

There is much Jewish teaching on the number 25 and its relationship to light, one data point being that light is the 25th word of the Torah.

Beyond all of that groundwork accomplished "in the wilderness", the name for Numbers, the bOOk of...

The son of man is a Y, as in the seed of David. The Y is the 25th and penultimate letter of the English alphabet and whose name sounds the same as the question.

Speaking of sounds of letters since no one is asking why, one of these letters does not match, does not belong:

E-G-Y-P-T

As it is written,

"Out of Egypt have I called my son."

The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.

"swOOsh"

"whOOsh"

Funny stuff:

00 - Exit code for Egypt, and is needed for making any international call from Egypt.

spirit (ruach) also means wind:

Gen 1

1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was gOOd: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

>>> The name crwth is Welsh, derived from a Proto-Celtic noun *krutto- ("round object"[4]) which refers to a swelling or bulging out, a pregnant appearance or a protuberance, and it is speculated that it came to be used for the instrument because of its bulging shape. Other Celtic words for violin also have meanings referring to rounded appearances. In Gaelic, for example, "cruit" can mean "hump" or "hunch" as well as harp or violin.[5] Like several other English loanwords from Welsh, the name is one of the few words in the English language in which the letter W is used as a vowel.<<<

(cf. the words grotto, crypt, crypto-)

Exodus 16

14 And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground.
15 And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the LORD hath given you to eat.

And if anyone happens to be curious about kurios (or Cyrus, the king who was famous for his command and his cylinder):

>>>κύριος

From κῦρος (kûros, “supremacy”) +‎ -ιος (-ios, adjective suffix), from Proto-Indo-European *ḱewh₁- (“to swell, spread out, be strong, prevail”). Cognate with κύω (kúō), Latin cumulus, cavus. <<<

>>>Noun

cumulus (plural cumuli)

A large white puffy cloud that develops through convection. On a hot, humid day, they can form towers and even become cumulonimbus clouds.

A mound or heap.

You can see how it all piles up sky high, and comes around full circle.

The other day I even demonstrated how the letter samech (the shape is a circle) is the concealed fish of the Hebrew alphabet, simply through the normal language of things, even to go so far to explain that the particular type is a brook trout, aka "coasters" (like those small, round things) but that's not anything from the established, approved circles of wisdom, yet

Luke 11

10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?

A real practical joker, that father.

The ouroboros is often interpreted as a symbol for eternal cyclic renewal or a cycle of life, death, and rebirth.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ouroboros

κῡ́ρῐος • (kū́rios) m (feminine κῡρῐ́ᾱ, neuter κῡ́ρῐον); first/second declension

(of people): ruling, governing, having power
(of things): decisive, critical, authorized, valid, legal, entitled
(of times): fixed, set, appointed
(of language): literal
main, major, primary, principal

Which reminds me that another aspect of 25 in Hebrew is that the numeral is spelled kaf-hei, the same as is the word koh, "thus":

>>> A good starting point is the word kohen itself, spelled, in Hebrew, Chof-Heh-Nun. Breaking the three letters into two groups, the first two spell the word koh—s0—the opening of many of the prophets as in, “So says God . . .” This is a reason for this.

The gematria of koh is 25, one of the most significant numbers in Judaism. To begin with, it is the gematria of the word yehi, used in the verse with which God made light: <<<

If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you heavenly things? No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man.

"Unfortunately, you never know when or where it's ever gonna strike."

"We do now."

Acts 1

5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
6 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
7 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

It's like the license plate says:

To: Ezekiel

“the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.”

9 months in the womb floating in abiotic fluid (water)birth of flesh. It is not like Jews were ignorant of rebirth metaphor redeemed infant, become adult, marriage, a teacher, teacher of teachers and Nicodemus couldn’t covert or become the king. So what is his dilemma?
