This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Num_32:14 And, behold, ye are risen up in your fathers’ stead, an increase of sinful men, to augment yet the fierce anger of the LORD toward Israel.
Ver. 14. An increase of sinful men.] A race of rebels; neither good egg nor bird; sin runs in a blood many times; ye seed of serpents, "ye generation of vipers, ye fill up the measure of your fathers’ sins" {Mat_23:32} Domitius, the father of Nero, foretold the wickedness of his son; for it cannot be, said he, that of me and my wife, Agrippina, any good man should be born. {a} When one complained that never father had so undutiful a child, Yes, said his son, with less grace than truth, my grandfather had.
{a} Dio, in Vita Neron.
