Inhaltsangabe

Numbers is the book of the wilderness — not the wilderness as romantic metaphor for spiritual searching, but the wilderness as consequence. Israel had been liberated from Egypt, ratified the covenant at Sinai, and constructed the tabernacle. They had everything they needed to enter the land they had been promised. And then, standing at its border, they refused to go in.

The result was forty years of wandering. Numbers is the honest record of that failure: the complaints, the rebellions, the longing for Egypt, the mutinies against Moses. It is also the record of a divine faithfulness that the failure did not terminate — the manna that arrived every morning, the cloud that kept moving, and the promise that was still standing when a new generation rose to receive what their parents had refused.

Numbers Explained walks readers through the historical setting, narrative structure, and major themes of the book — from the wilderness terrain and the two census counts to the Balaam oracles and the daughters of Zelophehad. Part of The Bible for Modern Life Series.
