NUMBERS CHAPTER 14



The children of Israel murmur against Moses and Aaron, Num_14:1-4. Moses, Aaron, Caleb, and Joshua go to appease the people, Num_14:5-9; wherefore the people would have stoned them, Num_14:10. The Lord threateneth them with the pestilence, Num_14:11,12. Moses entreateth the Lord for the people, Num_14:13-19. The Lord heareth Moses, Num_14:20,21; yet promiseth that the murmurers shall never enter into the land of Canaan, Num_14:22,23. Judgments on the murmurers, Num_14:26-35. They that brought an evil report on the land die of the plague, Num_14:36,37. They who would take possession of the land contrary to God’s command are smitten, Num_14:40-45.



Except Caleb and Joshua, and some few others. A synecdochial expression, the whole for the greatest part.
