Lesson 9 Review

“Numbers” gets its name from the three times God calls for a census, but a better title is “In the Wilderness” because that’s where the entire account takes place. This is actually the title in the Hebrew Bible taken from the first verse: “The LORD spoke to Moses bamidbar – in the wilderness...”

The long awaited promise of a land of their own is just a few days’ journey away, but, as we’ll see in the wilderness, God’s people have a long way to go before they will be able to come into the Land.

We will see our own selves in these chapters – living in the wilderness, trusting God, waiting, failing, trusting again.

Like Israel, we too are rough and rebellious, “prone to wander” as the hymn sings. We will see what Paul wrote that we are not to set our hearts on evil things...be sexually immoral...put God to the test...or gripe and complain...(1 Cor. 10:6-10.)
