I understand that "el mana de vida" means "wellspring," but can someone please explain why it means that? El mana, by itself, doesn't translate.

Mana is short for "manantial", correct? - Malenor, Mar 22, 2011

It seems obvious now that "mana" translates to the biblical "manna."

Maná is an actual word which comes from Latin:
maná.
(Del lat. manna, este del gr. ?????, y este del hebr. man, exudación de una variedad de tamarindo).
m. Manjar milagroso, enviado por Dios a modo de escarcha, para alimentar al pueblo de Israel en el desierto.
m. Bien o don que se recibe gratuitamente y de modo inesperado.
