Context Readings

Israel Disobeys The Lord

10 That entire generation passed away; a new generation grew up that had not personally experienced the Lord's presence or seen what he had done for Israel. 11 The Israelites did evil before the Lord by worshiping the Baals. 12 They abandoned the Lord God of their ancestors who brought them out of the land of Egypt. They followed other gods -- the gods of the nations who lived around them. They worshiped them and made the Lord angry.
