journey of israel through the Desert » Marked by constant murmurings and rebellions
Forty years long I was grieved with [that] generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways.
How often they rebelled against him in the wilderness, and grieved him in the desert!
Our fathers did not understand thy wonders in Egypt. They did not remember the multitude of thy loving kindnesses, but were rebellious at the sea, even at the Red Sea. Nevertheless he saved them for his name's sake, that he might make his mighty power to be known. He also rebuked the Red Sea, and it was dried up. So he led them through the depths as through a wilderness. read more.
And he saved them from the hand of him who hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy. And the waters covered their adversaries; there was not one of them left. Then they believed his words. They sang his praise. They soon forgot his works. They did not wait for his counsel, but lusted exceedingly in the wilderness, and challenged God in the desert. And he gave them their request, but sent leanness into their soul. They also envied Moses in the camp, [and] Aaron the sanctified of LORD. The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram. And a fire was kindled in their company. The flame burned up the wicked [men]. They made a calf in Horeb, and worshipped a molten image. Thus they changed their glory for the likeness of an ox that eats grass. They forgot God their Savior, who had done great things in Egypt, wondrous works in the land of Ham, [and] fearful things by the Red Sea. Therefore he said that he would destroy them, had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach, to turn away his wrath, lest he should destroy. Yea, they despised the pleasant land. They did not believe his word, but murmured in their tents, and did not hearken to the voice of LORD. Therefore he swore to them, that he would overthrow them in the wilderness, and that he would overthrow their seed among the nations, and scatter them in the lands. They also joined themselves to Baal-peor, and ate the sacrifices of the dead. Thus they provoked him to anger with their doings, and the plague broke in upon them. Then Phinehas stood up, and executed judgment, and so the plague was stayed. And that was reckoned to him for righteousness to all generations for evermore. They also angered him at the waters of Meribah, so that it went ill with Moses because of them, because they were rebellious against his spirit, and he spoke ill-advisedly with his lips. They did not destroy the peoples, as LORD commanded them, but mingled themselves with the nations, and learned their works, and served their idols, which became a snare to them. Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters to demons, and shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan. And the land was polluted with blood. Thus they were defiled with their works, and played the harlot in their doings.

Forgetting » The reward for forgetting the lord
But ye who forsake LORD, who forget my holy mountain, who prepare a table for Fortune, and who fill up mingled wine to Destiny, I will destine you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter. Because when I called, ye did not answer, when I spoke, ye did not hear, but ye did that which was evil in my eyes, and chose that in which I did not deli Therefore thus says lord LORD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry.

Therefore thus says LORD: Ask ye now among the nations, Who has heard such things? The virgin of Israel has done a very horrible thing. Shall the snow of Lebanon fail from the rock of the field? [Or] shall the cold waters that flow down from afar be dried up? For my people have forgotten me. They have burned incense to FALSE [gods]. And they have been made to stumble in their ways, in the ancient paths, to walk in bypaths, in a way not cast up, read more.
to make their land an astonishment, and a perpetual hissing, everyone who passes by it shall be astonished, and shake his head. I will scatter them as with an east wind before the enemy. I will show them the back, and not the face, in the day of their calamity.

And it shall be, if thou shall forget LORD thy God, and walk after other gods, and serve them, and worship them, I testify against you this day that ye shall surely perish. As the nations that LORD makes to perish before you, so shall ye perish, because ye would not hearken to the voice of LORD your God.
They sacrificed to demons, not God, to gods that they knew not, to new [gods] that came up of late, which your fathers did not dread. Thou are unmindful of the Rock that begot thee, and have forgotten God who gave thee birth. And LORD saw, and abhorred, because of the provocation of his sons and his daughters. read more.
And he said, I will hide my face from them. I will see what their end shall be. For they are a very perverse generation, sons in whom is no faithfulness. They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God. They have provoked me to anger with their vanities, and I will move them to jealousy with a non-nation. I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation. For a fire is kindled in my anger, and burns to the lowest Sheol, and devours the earth with its increase, and sets on fire the foundations of the mountains. I will heap evils upon them. I will spend my arrows upon them, [to be] wasted with hunger, and devoured with burning heat and bitter destruction. And I will send upon them the teeth of beasts, with the poison of crawling things of the dust.

For Israel has forgotten his maker, and built palaces. And Judah has multiplied fortified cities. But I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the castles thereof.
Yet I am LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shall know no god but me, and besides me there is no savior. I knew thee in the wilderness, in the land of great drought.

And Moses besought LORD his God, and said, LORD, why does thy wrath grow hot against thy people, whom thou have brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand? Why should the Egyptians speak, saying, He brought them forth for evil, to kill them on the mountains, and to consume them from the face of the earth? Turn from thy fierce wrath, and relent of this evil against thy people. Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swore by thine own self, and said to them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven. And all this land that I have spoken of I will give to your seed, and they read more.

And I fell down before LORD, as at the first, forty days and forty nights. I neither ate bread nor drank water, because of all your sin which ye sinned, in doing that which was evil in the sight of LORD, to provoke him to anger. For I was afraid of the anger and hot displeasure with which LORD was angry against you to destroy you. But LORD hearkened to me that time also. And LORD was very angry with Aaron to destroy him.

And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, grinding it very small, until it was as fine as dust. And I cast the dust of it into the brook that descended out of the mount. And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth-hattaavah, ye provoked LORD to wrath. And when LORD sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and possess the land which I have given you, then ye rebelled against the commandment of LORD your God, and ye did not believe him, nor hearken to his voice. Ye have been rebellious against LORD from the day that I knew you. So I fell down before LORD the forty days and forty nights that I fell down, because LORD had said he would destroy you. And I prayed to LORD, and said, O lord LORD, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, that thou have redeemed through thy greatness, that thou have brought forth out of Egypt with a mighty hand. Remember thy servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Look not to the stubbornness of this people, nor to their profaneness, nor to their sin, lest the land from where thou brought us out say, Because LORD was not able to bring them into the land which he promised to them, and because he hated them, he has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness. Yet they are thy people and thine inheritance, which thou brought out by thy great power and by thine outstretched arm.

He also rained flesh upon them as the dust, and winged birds as the sand of the seas. And he let it fall in the midst of their camp round about their habitations. So they ate, and were well filled, and he gave them their own desire. They were not estranged from that which they desired. Their food was yet in their mouths when the anger of God went up against them, and killed of the fattest of them, and smote down the young men of Israel.
