The Story, chapter 6

"Wandering"

The people marched out from their yearlong campout near Mount Sinai in organized units, grouped according to the 12 tribes (named after the 12 sons of Jacob). God continued to Guide them with the cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night. He had rescued his people from slavery, showed them his power, guided their steps given them his law and gifted them with his presence. By now, perhaps the people would trust God and his leading. But the Israelites continued to blame God for their hardships.
