Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. Let me get some my notes
Speaker 1: real quick. So we're a numbers nine through eleven, and
Speaker 1: right now it is five o'clock in the morning, so
Speaker 1: I have What's happening is I have people that wont
Speaker 1: me on their show too. So this weekend I have
Speaker 1: a few shows that I'm doing, and I'm trying to
Speaker 1: keep up with this show and my Josh Monday Christian
Speaker 1: Conspiracy podcast. So and guest appearance has happened as well too.
Speaker 1: And since I've been doing this show, I've been trying
Speaker 1: to cut down a little bit on guest appearances because
Speaker 1: I have this I try to study a lot for
Speaker 1: at least two days for you know, while I'm at
Speaker 1: work two days for Wednesday service and then two days
Speaker 1: for Sunday service, and then my three days that I
Speaker 1: have off I'm usually doing. I do my Sunday service show,
Speaker 1: which is going to be today, which is Thursday. I
Speaker 1: have what Thursday, Friday, Saturday off, and then I do
Speaker 1: and then my Josh Monday Christian conspiracy podcast showkind of
Speaker 1: slowly releasing these episodes because I'm a fit overwhelmed doing
Speaker 1: these two shows. So you know, it's cool, It's working
Speaker 1: out good. Though, what's happening right now because the people
Speaker 1: that don't listen to this show, they're getting fed on
Speaker 1: my show. And I think what we're doing here is
Speaker 1: most important. Conspiracies are fun, interesting, and I used to
Speaker 1: do my show was kind of sprinkled with Bible and
Speaker 1: it was a lot about conspiracies, and some shows were
Speaker 1: all Christian, right, so I would do like all Bible,
Speaker 1: but this is something else. It's on a different level,
Speaker 1: and I think it's on a different level of importance.
Speaker 1: And plus the people, I think on my show, I've
Speaker 1: already done two hundred and thirty five episodes, so they're
Speaker 1: pretty awake on the conspiracy aspect. But we need the
Speaker 1: word of God right now. We definitely do. So let
Speaker 1: me share my screen and for those that could see
Speaker 1: on Patreon, and I want to just go ahead and
Speaker 1: put a let me see. Oh this is cool, a
Speaker 1: little drop the minu. We're gonna go to numbers. So
Speaker 1: we are. So we got Genesis, we got Exodus, Leviticus done. Numbers.
Speaker 1: Once we get numbers done, we'll be at Deuteronomy. So
Speaker 1: the first five books of the Toro. That's it's gonna
Speaker 1: be amazing. And we're going to numbers nine today. And
Speaker 1: if you listened to Sunday Service last week last week,
Speaker 1: I was I was super tired. I was super tired
Speaker 1: last week, guys. And I appreciate you guys tuning in
Speaker 1: and sticking with it. I see people listening to the
Speaker 1: end on the comments, thank you, thank you for sticking
Speaker 1: with it. And UH and Catalyst guntains, what's up, brother,
Speaker 1: thank you for listening. Bro all the way through. You
Speaker 1: let me know you listen all the way through. I
Speaker 1: jumped on this one podcast. Oh check this out, guys,
Speaker 1: this is pretty interesting. So I went to Los Angeles
Speaker 1: last weekend. I remember on Sunday Service I was telling
Speaker 1: you guys. Hey, I got to go to LA and
Speaker 1: I went out there and there's this gentleman that listens
Speaker 1: to my show and also has a podcast. His name
Speaker 1: is Milton. He's super nice guy. He he let me
Speaker 1: stay at this at this condo that he or this place.
Speaker 1: You let me stay there, and we end up getting
Speaker 1: a room. And this gentleman from Rob from Disorganized Productions podcast,
Speaker 1: he ended up getting a room as well. He came
Speaker 1: all the way from the Netherlands and he was like, Hey,
Speaker 1: guess what, I'm doing my one hundredth episode and I
Speaker 1: want you and Milton to be on it. So that
Speaker 1: was interesting. We did a live episode, which I don't
Speaker 1: really do those. I don't think I've I've only done
Speaker 1: one in my in my whole podcast career where I'm
Speaker 1: live with with with people that are with me. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm not talking about like going live on YouTube. I'm
Speaker 1: talking about live like we're I'm in the same room
Speaker 1: as the people and we're recording, like like Joe Rogan
Speaker 1: or something like that. So it was pretty interesting though.
Speaker 1: I kind of enjoyed it. It's a little different than this.
Speaker 1: You kind of get so used to having the headphones
Speaker 1: and the mic and and you get used to this.
Speaker 1: It's a it's it's a little different, you know. But
Speaker 1: it was fun. And those two guys are not Bible believers.
Speaker 1: They they kind of invited me anyways. I'm like, cool,
Speaker 1: I'll talk. I get talk conspiracies always, you know. But
Speaker 1: I I know that they're listeners. A lot of them are.
Speaker 1: Maybe you have a few Christians, but they're probably not
Speaker 1: a Bible believers all the way. So I I want
Speaker 1: to make make sure like when I do those shows,
Speaker 1: that I'm planning seeds and I'm and I'm feeding them
Speaker 1: them with a lot of verses and stuff. So it
Speaker 1: was just it was just interesting. It was a fun weekend.
Speaker 1: You know. Sometimes I like to update you guys on
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. But if you want to listen,
Speaker 1: it's a disorganized Productions episode one, and you'll see you'll
Speaker 1: see how I am when I'm dealing with the pagan
Speaker 1: because the host is a Pagan. It's just funny, man
Speaker 1: that I I do those shows. But it's just you know,
Speaker 1: it happens, And you know, I don't mind being on
Speaker 1: anybody's show because I don't care what happens when I'm
Speaker 1: on a show. Because when I'm on a show, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna be spitting Bible verses and at least people, you know,
Speaker 1: faith came with by hearing, so at least I'm going
Speaker 1: to be hearing the word of God from me at
Speaker 1: some point. But anyways, let's go. God bless you guys,
Speaker 1: and I appreciate you. I'm gonna pray real quick, you know,
Speaker 1: because I want to. I want to make sure that
Speaker 1: that God blesses me on this uh with some knowledge
Speaker 1: on this one. So Father God in the name of Jesus,
Speaker 1: I appreciate everything you do for me. Lord. I just
Speaker 1: want to say, let your Holy Spirit speak through me,
Speaker 1: help me to teach, and help me to preach at
Speaker 1: the same time, so I could help these people that
Speaker 1: are listening. So you can help the people that are
Speaker 1: listening me. I'm not helping. All I'm doing is just
Speaker 1: following your will and reading the Bible. So please help
Speaker 1: me to teach everything that I'm about to go over.
Speaker 1: Thank you, appreciate you Jesus name. Amen. Yes, I pray
Speaker 1: beforehand because these books are different. God. When God shows
Speaker 1: me the Book of Mark, you know, I'm easy for
Speaker 1: me to retain. He's king a lot a lot easier
Speaker 1: for me to teach. Book of Numbers starts to get
Speaker 1: a little more difficult. But stick around because we have
Speaker 1: some interesting stuff happening, and numbers twelve and numbers thirteen.
Speaker 1: If we get there, we should be able to get there.
Speaker 1: Numbers twelve, numbers thirteen are interesting. I love it. I
Speaker 1: always quote numbers twelve, verses four through eight on my
Speaker 1: Biblical cosmology episode, and I like that portion. It's easy.
Speaker 1: And then also number thirteen, we got some Nephilie action
Speaker 1: interesting stuff there too, and I like that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: It just fascinates me. So let's go numbers nine, verse one,
Speaker 1: the second Passover. Before we go, let me just tell
Speaker 1: you guys what Okay, let me just tell you guys
Speaker 1: what Passover is. In the Bible. Passover the celebration of
Speaker 1: the Israelites exodus from slavery in Egypt. So it's a
Speaker 1: celebration of their exodus in Egypt, of them leaving Egypt.
Speaker 1: It's a major Jewish holiday that is also known as Pissash.
Speaker 1: The Bible describes how the Israelites were freed from slavery
Speaker 1: in Egypt by Moses. That's exodus. And then also in
Speaker 1: Matthew twenty six twenty six through twenty eight, Jesus took
Speaker 1: bread and wine during a Passover meal and said, this
Speaker 1: is my body and this is my blood. The Passover
Speaker 1: traditions a special family meal that marks the beginning of Passover.
Speaker 1: The cedar includes symbolic foods, prayers, and recitations. Unleaven bread
Speaker 1: also as a matso. The bread symbolizes the Israelites suffering
Speaker 1: in the bondage of their haste to leave Egypt. Symbolism.
Speaker 1: The name Passover comes from the miracle when the Angel
Speaker 1: it says the Angel of Death skipped over the house
Speaker 1: of Israel, but I see it as the Angel of
Speaker 1: the Lord. It's kind of weird because why does it
Speaker 1: say that on there. Yeah, I'm not when I was
Speaker 1: an exodusident say angel of death, but I think it
Speaker 1: said an Angel of the Lord. Not the Angel Lord,
Speaker 1: but an Angel of the Lord. So they skipped over
Speaker 1: the houses and did not kill her firstborn. You know.
Speaker 1: They basically they took the blood of the lamb, they
Speaker 1: put it on the door, and then that saved the
Speaker 1: the children from passing from from the angel of Death
Speaker 1: or the Angel of the Lord, or an Angel of
Speaker 1: the Lord. I have to. I have to look it
Speaker 1: back up again. I don't know why. It's his Angel
Speaker 1: of Death. That's what I thought it was, but when
Speaker 1: I looked at the Bible, it actually was different. But anyways,
Speaker 1: so that's what it symbolizeses just so you know, so
Speaker 1: we have. The Passover is celebrated with a series of rituals,
Speaker 1: each symbolizing a different part of the Exodus story. The
Speaker 1: Israelites bondage of Egypt symbolizes the bondage of God's children
Speaker 1: to Sin. Okay, and let's go ahead and check out
Speaker 1: the second Passover. Now the Lord spoke to it's going
Speaker 1: to be numbers verse one. Now, the Lord spoke to
Speaker 1: Moses in the wilderness of Sinai in the first month
Speaker 1: of the second year, after they had come out of
Speaker 1: the land of Egypt, saying, let the children of Israel
Speaker 1: keep the passover, and it's at its appointed time on
Speaker 1: the fourteenth day of this month, that's twilight. You shall
Speaker 1: keep it as an appointed time, according to its rights
Speaker 1: and ceremonies. You shall keep it. So Moses told the
Speaker 1: children of his that they should keep the Passover, and
Speaker 1: they kept the passive Passover on the fourteenth day of
Speaker 1: the first month at twilight and the wilderness of Sinai.
Speaker 1: According to all that the Lord commanded Moses, so the
Speaker 1: children of Israel did so. Passover also is like a
Speaker 1: representation of of Jesus, you know, because Jesus is the
Speaker 1: sacrificial Lamb and we are saved by his blood. Right,
Speaker 1: we got to know that. That's that's that's the very
Speaker 1: important part. Is Jesus is all over the Old Testament
Speaker 1: and what Jesus did for us or God Sin has
Speaker 1: only begotten son to do for us, what God the
Speaker 1: father Sin has only begotten son to do for us,
Speaker 1: and what Jesus did for us on the cross, holy
Speaker 1: Spirit did for us. You know, uh, it's it's all.
Speaker 1: It's all in the Old Testament, you know. We we
Speaker 1: have we have a picture of all these things that
Speaker 1: Jesus did on the cross for us throughout the Old Testament. Also,
Speaker 1: Jesus is uh you know, first coming, you know is
Speaker 1: all you know, is all predicted, everything is is all
Speaker 1: written in the Old Testament, and there's just so many
Speaker 1: things that are a picture of what Jesus did. So
Speaker 1: I just want to let you guys know that now
Speaker 1: there were certain men this is numbers nine, verse six,
Speaker 1: And there were certain men who were defiled by a
Speaker 1: human corpse so that they could not keep the passover
Speaker 1: on that day. And they came before Moses and Aaron
Speaker 1: that day, and those men said to him, we became
Speaker 1: defiled by human corps. Why are we not kept? Why
Speaker 1: are we kept from presenting the offering of the Lord
Speaker 1: at its appointed time among the children of Israel. And
Speaker 1: Moses said to them, stand still, that I may hear
Speaker 1: what the Lord will command concerning you. So they're asking
Speaker 1: Moses and Aaron, wait, the man came, we became defiled
Speaker 1: the person we kept. So they're asking. They're asking them like, hey,
Speaker 1: if I got defiled, how come I can't present an offering?
Speaker 1: Because they want to be able to do that as well,
Speaker 1: And what es do Moses didn't just snap back with
Speaker 1: an answer. Moses said, stand still and that I may
Speaker 1: hear from the Lord. Right, sometimes you have to stay
Speaker 1: still and hear from God, or be patient or pray
Speaker 1: to the Lord, you know, go to the Lord with
Speaker 1: the things that you have. And I love how Moses
Speaker 1: did this. And later on in numbers thirteen, you're going
Speaker 1: to see that. I think you're going to see a
Speaker 1: correlation of how Moses actually went to the Lord with
Speaker 1: what people ask. Right, we let God be true, every
Speaker 1: man a liar. So it's nice. I appreciate how Moses
Speaker 1: does that, and I'm sure that God appreciated it too.
Speaker 1: You know. That's the reason why in numbers twelve, you're
Speaker 1: going to see what God does you know with Moses
Speaker 1: in particular as opposed to Aaron and marry him numbers nine,
Speaker 1: verse nine. Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, speak
Speaker 1: to the children of Israel, if any of you, if
Speaker 1: any of you or your posterity is unclean because of
Speaker 1: a corpse or as far away on a journey, he
Speaker 1: may still keep the Lord's passover on the fourteenth day
Speaker 1: of the second month that twilight. They may keep it.
Speaker 1: They break one of its they break one of its bones,
Speaker 1: according to the audience of the passover, they shall keep it.
Speaker 1: But the man who is clean and is not on
Speaker 1: a journey and ceases to keep the passover, that same
Speaker 1: person shall be cut off from among his people. So
Speaker 1: if you are clean and you're able to keep the
Speaker 1: passover and you don't do it, then you're gonna be
Speaker 1: cut off from your people. This is something that God
Speaker 1: is saying. It's like a celebration. It's like an appreciation
Speaker 1: to the Lord for what he did right because he
Speaker 1: did not bring the offering to the Lord as at
Speaker 1: this point in time that man shall bear his sin,
Speaker 1: So you're gonna be It's kind of the same as
Speaker 1: you don't want to believe in Like, you know, Jesus
Speaker 1: did something on the cross for us. He died on
Speaker 1: the cross. We got saved by the blood of Jesus,
Speaker 1: and then he died and rose again. If you don't
Speaker 1: want to believe all that and you don't want to
Speaker 1: partake in what Jesus did, and you don't want to
Speaker 1: have faith in the Lord, then you're then you're going
Speaker 1: to bury your sin. It's kind of the same thing.
Speaker 1: It's just it's like a picture of that of you
Speaker 1: a non believer. So, oh, you don't wanna, you don't wanna,
Speaker 1: you don't want to believe, then then you can bury
Speaker 1: your sin. But us, we become holy because of what
Speaker 1: Jesus did on the cross, what God the Father said
Speaker 1: has only begotten son to do on the cross. We
Speaker 1: become holy. We also become holy because we have the
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit. And when we're saved, we have the Holy Spirit.
Speaker 1: And what he does is he's going to assist you
Speaker 1: in your life. He's the comforter. He helps you navigate. He's
Speaker 1: like your moral compass. Right, he helps you navigate, right, And
Speaker 1: what a blessing to have the Holy Spirit. He also
Speaker 1: assists you in many different ways numbers nine, verse fourteen.
Speaker 1: And if a stranger dwells among you and would keep
Speaker 1: the Lord's passover, he must do so according to the
Speaker 1: right of the Passover, and according to its ceremony. You
Speaker 1: shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger and the
Speaker 1: native of the land. So so that's saying like a gentile,
Speaker 1: if a gentile wants to keep the Lord's passover, he
Speaker 1: must do according to the right of Passover. So yes,
Speaker 1: it's okay for a gentile to keep passovers. Was what
Speaker 1: God is saying, both for stranger and native of the land.
Speaker 1: So if a stranger comes. And oh also, I'll tell
Speaker 1: you when they did do the exodus out of Egypt,
Speaker 1: some Egyptians went with them, not like I don't know
Speaker 1: how many, but I'm sure some exodus out of out
Speaker 1: of there as well and left, and maybe maybe some
Speaker 1: converted to Yahweh, you know, or some convert you know,
Speaker 1: some believed in Yahweh and they ended up. So those
Speaker 1: would be like the strangers and the natives in the land.
Speaker 1: And also you know, maybe some some people hear about
Speaker 1: Yahweh splitting the red sea, right, some people hear about
Speaker 1: the miracle, and and and they maybe they come and
Speaker 1: they and they want to partake, and they want to believe.
Speaker 1: God is not gonna say no, nope, sorry, only the Israelites,
Speaker 1: like some people try to lead you to believe. You know,
Speaker 1: God is saying that if a stranger among you or
Speaker 1: a native to the land, okay, cool, I love that
Speaker 1: numbers nine, verse fifteen. This is the cloud and the fire. Now,
Speaker 1: on that day the tabernacle was raised up. The cloud
Speaker 1: covered the tabernacle the tent of the testimony from evening
Speaker 1: until morning. It was above the tabernacle like the appearance
Speaker 1: of fire. So it was always the cloud covered it
Speaker 1: by day and appeared by fire of fire by night.
Speaker 1: Wherever the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle,
Speaker 1: after the children of Israel would journey and in the
Speaker 1: place where the cloud settled. There the children of Israel
Speaker 1: would pitch their tents. At the command of the Lord,
Speaker 1: the children of Israel would journey, and at the command
Speaker 1: of the Lord they would camp. As long as the
Speaker 1: cloud stayed above the tabernacle, they remained in camped. So
Speaker 1: this is amazing, This is this is like, this is God.
Speaker 1: God is guiding them, right, They're depending on God. And
Speaker 1: as you see in numbers twelve, you're going to see that.
Speaker 1: You know that God is with them. You know, God
Speaker 1: is speaking to Moses face to face. You know, you're
Speaker 1: going to see things that are amazing. And then Moses
Speaker 1: can ask God and like just get a reply. You know,
Speaker 1: it's different. That's why when people sind like in Leviticus
Speaker 1: that when the person blasphemed God, God destroyed him because
Speaker 1: God is in their presence. Now we hit does God
Speaker 1: omnipresent for us right now? Yes, we just don't realize it.
Speaker 1: We just don't realize it like they did. God is
Speaker 1: not like you. You don't ask God like, hey, God,
Speaker 1: should I go to work tomorrow? Should I journey tomorrow?
Speaker 1: Should I go? And then God like gives you an
Speaker 1: instant answer. Just it's just not the same right now,
Speaker 1: But we do we are able to pray through Jesus
Speaker 1: which is our mediator, and speak to God right now,
Speaker 1: which is amazing too. And it's different than the way
Speaker 1: that they used to be able to do it. But
Speaker 1: before they would have to do all these things and
Speaker 1: then you know, and able to speak to God. You
Speaker 1: don't have aaron do this and then sacrifice and this
Speaker 1: see it's just different. Now Jesus is the sacrifice. But
Speaker 1: see now now the sins are handled different, you see.
Speaker 1: So God is still with us, It's just it's just different.
Speaker 1: As you can see here, you know, there's like a
Speaker 1: cloud of fire. I mean we're not we're not seeing
Speaker 1: that anymore. But it's it's it's amazing. Though we have
Speaker 1: to appreciate where we're at, Like I was trying to say,
Speaker 1: I think on the past episode, I'm sure we appreciate
Speaker 1: where Moses is. That because Moses is speaking to God
Speaker 1: face to face, which is like which we're not able
Speaker 1: to see God like how he was right, but we
Speaker 1: believe that's why he said. That's why Jesus said that
Speaker 1: what better for someone that doesn't know me to still
Speaker 1: believe in me than someone that knows me and then
Speaker 1: doesn't you know, so that does so we just we
Speaker 1: just need to understand that. Let's continue. We are numbers nine,
Speaker 1: verse nineteen. Even when the cloud continued long, many days
Speaker 1: about the tabernacle, the children Utu kept the charge of
Speaker 1: the Lord and did not journey. So it was when
Speaker 1: the cloud was above the tabernacle a few days, according
Speaker 1: to the command of the Lord, they remained in camped,
Speaker 1: and according to the command of the Lord, they would journey.
Speaker 1: So it was when the cloud remained only from the
Speaker 1: evening until morning, when the cloud was taken up in
Speaker 1: the morning, they would journey, whether by day or by night.
Speaker 1: Whatever the cloud was taken up, they would journey. Whenever
Speaker 1: it was two days, a month, or a year that
Speaker 1: the cloud remained above the tabernacle, the children of Israel
Speaker 1: would remain in camp and not journey. But when it
Speaker 1: was taken up, they would journey. At the command of
Speaker 1: the Lord. They remained in camp, and at the command
Speaker 1: of the Lord, they journeyed. They kept the charge of
Speaker 1: the Lord, and they at the command of the Lord
Speaker 1: by the hand of Moses. So they were following. They
Speaker 1: were walking with God, and they were walking when God
Speaker 1: said to walk, you know, like they would journey. And
Speaker 1: I think that's fascinating. They were in obedience, so Moses
Speaker 1: was able to be there and kind of be the
Speaker 1: leader for them, and they were trusting him at this time,
Speaker 1: and they were obeying God at this time, which is great.
Speaker 1: Two silver trumpets. This is numbers ten, verse one, And
Speaker 1: the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, make two silver trumpets
Speaker 1: for yourself. You shall make them of hammered work. You
Speaker 1: shall use them for calling the congregation and for directing
Speaker 1: the movement of the camps. When they blow both of them,
Speaker 1: all the congregations shall gather before you at the door
Speaker 1: of the tabernacle of meeting. But if you blow only one,
Speaker 1: then the leaders the hands of the division of Israel
Speaker 1: shall gather you. Now, this is very interesting that it's
Speaker 1: a trumpet because Angela and Aaron and whoever else was
Speaker 1: prior military you know, you know, we we got that.
Speaker 1: Uh do do do do do do do Do Do
Speaker 1: do Do do do do do do do do do
Speaker 1: do do do do do do do do do we
Speaker 1: have that. And when you're at army bases. Uh So
Speaker 1: we have trumpets, which is interesting. And when you hear it,
Speaker 1: you know we have to do you know, your salute
Speaker 1: and and uh, when you hear the trumpets, right, so
Speaker 1: everybody stops and salutes and wait un till it gets done,
Speaker 1: and you know, then you continue on. So I think
Speaker 1: that's fascinating. The trumpet. Does it have anything to do
Speaker 1: with the Bible? Maybe it gets your attention and sometimes
Speaker 1: they are they trying to be biblical? No, they're probably
Speaker 1: there's probably maybe they got the idea from it here
Speaker 1: when you sound the advance, and then also, like you know,
Speaker 1: back in the today they would have the trumpet too,
Speaker 1: and the cavalry and stuff. So is there a connection.
Speaker 1: Maybe when you sound the advance, the camps that lie
Speaker 1: on the east side shall then begin their journey. When
Speaker 1: you sound the advance the second time, then the camps
Speaker 1: that lie on the south sides shall begin their journey.
Speaker 1: They shall sound the call for them from to the
Speaker 1: beginning of their journeys. And then assembly is to gather toget. Wait. Then,
Speaker 1: when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow,
Speaker 1: but not sound the advance. The sons of Aaron, the
Speaker 1: priests shall blow the trumpets, and these shall be to
Speaker 1: you as an ordinance forever throughout your generations. Now, I
Speaker 1: think it's fascinating as well, because you know, you hear
Speaker 1: the trumpets in the Book of Revelation. You see everything
Speaker 1: is a foreshadow of what's going to happen, right, so
Speaker 1: you see, these are the Israelites, these are God's people.
Speaker 1: But in the Book of Revelation, the Church is going
Speaker 1: to be to people, right anyway that converged to Christ.
Speaker 1: So the trumpet you hear is going to be uh
Speaker 1: so I'd have to go through it. I wish I
Speaker 1: would have studied this portion about the trumpets and Revelation
Speaker 1: and been able to kind of make a connection here,
Speaker 1: But I would definitely if you guys want to read
Speaker 1: forward to the Book of Revelation. You know, you hear
Speaker 1: the trumpets. And also when God was on the mountain
Speaker 1: Mount Sinai, you hear the trumpet. So this is really
Speaker 1: cool that you know, we can kind of That's why
Speaker 1: it's good to go through, like I said, go through
Speaker 1: the Old Testament and then go through the New Testament
Speaker 1: and then kind of find correlations and also see that
Speaker 1: you know, the pictures of certain things that we see
Speaker 1: in the Old Testament compared to the New Testament, and
Speaker 1: it's really awesome, just like that correlation you see in
Speaker 1: the Book of Revelation where God blows the trumpet. Now, look,
Speaker 1: you see you blow one trumpet's let's let's let's let's
Speaker 1: see what that is. When they blow both of them,
Speaker 1: all the congregations shall gather with the door of the tabernacle.
Speaker 1: So when you when you blow two trumpets, then everybody
Speaker 1: gathers to the door of the tabernacle. Right, one trumpet
Speaker 1: is when they advance. So very cool. Let's continue numbers
Speaker 1: ten verse nine. When you go to war in your
Speaker 1: land against the enemy who oppresses you, then you shall
Speaker 1: sound and alarm with the trumpets, and you will be
Speaker 1: remembered before the Lord your God, and you will be
Speaker 1: saved from your enemies. Also in the day of your
Speaker 1: gladness and your appointed feast, and at the beginning of
Speaker 1: your months, you shall blow the trumpets before your burnt
Speaker 1: offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings, and
Speaker 1: they shall be a memorial for you before the Lord.
Speaker 1: I am the Lord your God. So there's also some
Speaker 1: Christians right now that when they're in church, they they
Speaker 1: you know, and they do their thing, they blow the trumpets.
Speaker 1: And uh, I was listening to a pastor that said
Speaker 1: that some gentleman had called him and said, Uh, hey,
Speaker 1: do you guys blow the trumpet? Nope, all right, cool,
Speaker 1: I ain't coming, you know, you know. Uh let's let's
Speaker 1: just let me make see if I can make a
Speaker 1: connection here. Let's see what the trumpets were Revelation. In Revelation,
Speaker 1: seven angels blow, seven trumpets heats unleash in a specific
Speaker 1: judgment on the earth, with the first trumpet bringing hail
Speaker 1: and fire mixed with blood, burning a third of heaven
Speaker 1: and trees and green grass. We'll wait till we get
Speaker 1: to Revelation. But see the trumpets used also in the
Speaker 1: Book of Revelation, and uh yeah, they mean something. Let
Speaker 1: me let me get back to uh so, let me
Speaker 1: see if I have anything for Oh yeah, once we
Speaker 1: get to the companion complaining and grumbling part, I will
Speaker 1: have a little bit of stuff. So okay, Now we
Speaker 1: have the departure from Sinai. This is numbers ten, verse eleven.
Speaker 1: Now it came to pass on the twelfth day of
Speaker 1: the second month and the second year, that the cloud
Speaker 1: was taken up from above the tabernac La testimony, and
Speaker 1: the children of Israel set out from the wilderness of
Speaker 1: Syinai on their journeys. Then the cloud settled down in
Speaker 1: the wilderness of the Piran, so they started out for
Speaker 1: the first time according to the command of the Lord
Speaker 1: by the hand of Moses. The standard of the camp
Speaker 1: of children of Judah set out first according to their armies.
Speaker 1: Over their army was Nashan, the son of Aminadab, which
Speaker 1: we've heard him before. Over the army of the tribe
Speaker 1: of the children of Ishkar was Nathaniel, the son of Zuar.
Speaker 1: So these are like basically telling you, like the captains
Speaker 1: or the commanders. And over the army of the tribe
Speaker 1: of children of Zebulun was Ilieb, the son of Alan.
Speaker 1: So they're like battalions. They're like, they're over the like
Speaker 1: kind of like the battalions is what we would say,
Speaker 1: like in the military or or brigades. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure how they would they would connect. Then
Speaker 1: the tabernacle was taken down, and the sons of Gurshan
Speaker 1: and the sons of Maria set out, carrying in the tabernacle,
Speaker 1: and the standard of the camp of Reubens set out
Speaker 1: according to their armies. Over their army was Eli Eliezer,
Speaker 1: the son of Shador. Over the army of tribal children
Speaker 1: of Simeon was Shamulai, the son of Zuri Shadai. And
Speaker 1: over the army of the tribal children of Gad was Elisaff,
Speaker 1: the son of Duel Duell. When the Korra heights set
Speaker 1: out carrying the holy things, the tabernacle would be prepared
Speaker 1: for their arrival, and the standard of the camp of
Speaker 1: the children of Ephrium set out according to their armies.
Speaker 1: Over the army was Alishama, the son of Amahud. Over
Speaker 1: the army of the tribal children of Manassa was Gimaliel,
Speaker 1: the son of Pudazur. And the army of the tribal
Speaker 1: children of Benjamin was Abadon Abidan, son of Gudoni. Then
Speaker 1: the standard of the camp of the children of Dan,
Speaker 1: the rear guard of all the camp set out according
Speaker 1: to their armies. Over their army was a Hazir, the
Speaker 1: son of amash Dai. Over the army of the tribal
Speaker 1: children of Asher was Pigiel, the son of Akran. And
Speaker 1: over the army of the tribe of the children of
Speaker 1: Naphtali was a Hari, the son of a Nan. Thus
Speaker 1: there was an order. Thus was the order of march
Speaker 1: of the children of Zel, according to their armies. When
Speaker 1: they began their journey, Mo said to have Bab, the
Speaker 1: son of Raoul the Midianite, Moses father in law. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So obviously in uh, let me check something real quick,
Speaker 1: Moses father in law. So we have him in as Jethro,
Speaker 1: the priest of the Midianites in Exodus, right, and then
Speaker 1: here it says, now Moses said to Habab, the son
Speaker 1: of Raoul the Midianite, Moses's father in law. So what
Speaker 1: what the pastor said on this portion when I was studying,
Speaker 1: and you know other pastors were saying, was that the
Speaker 1: that that sometimes they would have like different names, I guess,
Speaker 1: But this is Posy the same guy, Jethro. I want
Speaker 1: to make sure, just give me one sick. I want
Speaker 1: to make sure that I'm not I'm not saying this
Speaker 1: wrong because I didn't really study this portion. Jethrow and Raoul. Oh, okay.
Speaker 1: And so the son of Ro, the Hebrew Bible moses
Speaker 1: father in law, a key night shepherd and priest of
Speaker 1: midian is referred to as both Jethro and Raul, which
Speaker 1: appear in Exodus First, Exodus three eighteen, and Jethro appearing
Speaker 1: oh and later in Exodus three to one, Oh, okay, Raoul,
Speaker 1: moses father in law, is first mentioned as Rail and
Speaker 1: that's what it is, not Raoul, sorry, Rail, it's our
Speaker 1: e U E L. In Exodus two eighteen, when Moses
Speaker 1: is in Midian and keeps Suppora, the daughter of Raoul, okay,
Speaker 1: and then Jethro, the same individual is then referred to
Speaker 1: as Jethro, the piece of the Midian who is as
Speaker 1: Moses's father in law, how Bab. Later in numbers, Moses's
Speaker 1: father in law is identified as Habab, the son of Role,
Speaker 1: and in judges for it for eleven he Bab is
Speaker 1: referred to as Hbab. The Kenyanite scholarly views. Some scholars
Speaker 1: believe that jeth Thron Role are the same person, possibly
Speaker 1: using different names or titles, while others suggest they may
Speaker 1: be different individuals or that the text may have inaccuracies. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't think the text has inaccuracies. Jeth Throw's role Jethrow,
Speaker 1: as Moses's father in law, plays a significant role in
Speaker 1: the biblical narrative, advising Moses on out. Okay, we don't
Speaker 1: need to know that part, so yeah, just letting you
Speaker 1: guys know. There's looks like in the in the name. Uh,
Speaker 1: they're not exactly sure, and I'm not exactly sure, but
Speaker 1: and how many Let's see, did Moses only have one wife?
Speaker 1: Wife did Moses have? The biblical account suggests Moses had
Speaker 1: at least one wife, Sapora, the daughter of Jethro. Some
Speaker 1: interpretations suggest that he may have had a second wife,
Speaker 1: a Cushite woman, but the details are not fully clear,
Speaker 1: So that could also be an option if you did have,
Speaker 1: like a a second wife, which they're not exactly clear
Speaker 1: on that. So don't want to say he did. Just
Speaker 1: want to let you guys know that. So if you're
Speaker 1: reading this and you're like, hey, I thought his name
Speaker 1: was Jethro or whatever you did, that's the reason why
Speaker 1: you're seeing that, or could be the reason. We don't
Speaker 1: know one hundred percent. It says I will give it
Speaker 1: to you, come with us, and we will treat you well,
Speaker 1: for the Lord has promised good things in Israel numbers ten,
Speaker 1: verse thirty. And actually the Midianites. That's interesting because there's
Speaker 1: actually a Christian branch of Midianites. And yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: really know exactly their beliefs. Or their roles, but just
Speaker 1: want to tell you guys that. So now we got
Speaker 1: numbers ten verse thirty and he said to him, I
Speaker 1: will not go, but I will depart on my own
Speaker 1: land and to my relatives numbers ten verse thirty one.
Speaker 1: So Moses said, please do not leave. And as such
Speaker 1: as you know how, we are to camp in the wilderness,
Speaker 1: and you can be our eyes. And it shall be
Speaker 1: if you go with us. Indeed, it shall be that
Speaker 1: whatever good the Lord will do to us, the same
Speaker 1: we will do to you. So they depart from the
Speaker 1: mountain of the Lord on a journey of three days,
Speaker 1: and the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord went
Speaker 1: before them for the three days journey to search out
Speaker 1: a resting place for them. And the cloud of the
Speaker 1: Lord was above them by day, and they went out
Speaker 1: from the camp. So it was whenever the arc set out,
Speaker 1: and Moses said, rise up, o Lord, let your enemies
Speaker 1: be scattered, and let those who hate you flee before you.
Speaker 1: And when it rested, these said, return, o Lord to
Speaker 1: the many thousands of Israel. Yeah, so I guess when
Speaker 1: the ark was in movement, it says, rise the Lord,
Speaker 1: let your enemies be scattered and let those who hate
Speaker 1: you flee before you. So he's like basically praying to God.
Speaker 1: And as it rested, he said, return the Lord to
Speaker 1: the many thousands of Israel. So great stuff, all right.
Speaker 1: So now we are at numbers eleven, verse one. The
Speaker 1: people complain. This is the part where the grumbling happens.
Speaker 1: So I'll get to my notes. Ah, people complain. Now,
Speaker 1: when the people complained, it displeased the Lord. For the
Speaker 1: Lord heard it, and his anger was aroused. So the
Speaker 1: fire of the Lord burned among them and consumed some
Speaker 1: of the outskirts of the camp. Okay, so when the
Speaker 1: people complained, I'm gonna go back to numbers eleven to one.
Speaker 1: So when the people complained, it displeased the Lord, for
Speaker 1: the Lord heard it, and his anger was aroused. So
Speaker 1: the fire of the Lord burned among them and consumed
Speaker 1: some in the outskirts of the case. When the people
Speaker 1: cried out to Moses, and when Moses prayed to the Lord,
Speaker 1: the fire was quinced. So we called the name of
Speaker 1: the place Taborah. Tabara means burning, tebara means burning. If
Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken, let me just look that up. And
Speaker 1: I don't want to tell you if it doesn't. So
Speaker 1: I just remember hearing that, I just want to numbers eleven.
Speaker 1: Tabarah tabara, where are you right there? Yes, Tebara means burning,
Speaker 1: So that's why he called the place tebro, because the
Speaker 1: fire of the Lord had burned among them. Now, interesting,
Speaker 1: very interesting take. Because I live in California and I
Speaker 1: live close to La about be fifty miles away, and
Speaker 1: I went during the fires that were happening. A lot
Speaker 1: of people were saying that that God was, you know,
Speaker 1: punishing some of the people whatever, you know, and some
Speaker 1: people were even prophesying like, oh, yeah, God is punishing
Speaker 1: the La people, you know. But uh, you know, I don't.
Speaker 1: I wouldn't necessarily ever say what God is doing and
Speaker 1: God is not doing to people, you know. I think
Speaker 1: we need to make sure that we're one hundred percent
Speaker 1: if we're going to say something like that. But it's
Speaker 1: just an example of sometimes people would take like a
Speaker 1: scripture like this and say, hey, you know, the people
Speaker 1: are complaining and God is displeased. He might be teaching
Speaker 1: these people in La a lesson. But I happen to
Speaker 1: have a friend that was in Pacific Palisades, super nice individual,
Speaker 1: you know, good person. I don't know if he's like
Speaker 1: fully Christian or not because I work with him, but
Speaker 1: he actually is just a contractor through us. But you know,
Speaker 1: he lost a home, and I'm sure there's a lot
Speaker 1: of people you know that that we're probably Christian that
Speaker 1: do follow the Bible and that maybe lost a home too.
Speaker 1: You know, So we don't want to just say like, oh, yeah, God,
Speaker 1: God's problem. You know, this seems like man did that,
Speaker 1: you know, because they have edison or this other things
Speaker 1: that caused the fire, and not one hundred percent want
Speaker 1: to get into that. Now, was there any direct energy
Speaker 1: weapons that could have been part of it too, Ben
Speaker 1: that could have been part of it too, But yeah,
Speaker 1: so just want to let you guys know that I
Speaker 1: did hear people saying that God is punishing the people
Speaker 1: in LA because they hear stuff on the news and
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, well, La, they're everybody there's a Democrat
Speaker 1: and they're all liberal and they're all about this, and
Speaker 1: not everybody, just maybe some, but a lot of people
Speaker 1: in the Pacific Palisades were probably a lot of them
Speaker 1: were probably like Republican, you know, and some were Christians.
Speaker 1: So anyways, I just thought it was interesting you know
Speaker 1: to mention that, but we got numbers eleven verse four.
Speaker 1: Now the mixed multitude who were among them, yielded to
Speaker 1: intense craving. So the children of Israel also wept again
Speaker 1: and said, who will give us meat to eat? We
Speaker 1: remember the fish which we ate freely in Egypt, the cucumbers,
Speaker 1: the melons, the leaks, the onions, and the garlic. But now, oh,
Speaker 1: man I like I like garlic and onions too. But
Speaker 1: now our whole being is dried up. There was nothing
Speaker 1: at all except the manna before our eyes. You see there.
Speaker 1: This is the murmuring, murmuring and complaining. So we'll continue
Speaker 1: numbers eleven verse seven. Now the mana was like corridor
Speaker 1: seed in its color, like the color of billium. The
Speaker 1: people went about and gathered it, grounded on milestones, or
Speaker 1: beat it in the motar, cooked it in pans and
Speaker 1: make cakes of it. And its taste was like the
Speaker 1: taste of pastry prepared with oil. And when the dew
Speaker 1: fell on the camp at night, the man i fell
Speaker 1: on it. So God is providing for them, and they
Speaker 1: are like, dude, we need some meat. And I love
Speaker 1: to eat meat too, So I understand where they're coming from.
Speaker 1: And what they're not understanding is they have God with them.
Speaker 1: You know, they have Moses as a lyric. Moses is
Speaker 1: speaking to God face to face, and they're not thinking
Speaker 1: of the bigger picture, the spiritual picture. Their flesh is
Speaker 1: taken over. They want they want to they're they're craving
Speaker 1: that fish, the crazing that meat, and to the point
Speaker 1: where they're like, well, in Egypt, we were able to
Speaker 1: have this, but you were a slave though. You see
Speaker 1: the Egypt is like is like the world, right, that's
Speaker 1: like a picture of the world. And that's what we do.
Speaker 1: Sometimes we want to go back to our old vomit.
Speaker 1: We want to go back to the world, and not
Speaker 1: understanding that we're blessed to have God taking care of us,
Speaker 1: and so we have Hebrews thirteen, verses five through six.
Speaker 1: I'll just this kind of goes with the complaining part.
Speaker 1: Let your conduct be without covetousness, be content with such
Speaker 1: things as you have, For He himself has said, I
Speaker 1: will never leave you nor forsake you. So we may
Speaker 1: boldly say, the Lord is my helper, I will not
Speaker 1: fear what can man do for me? Right, So let
Speaker 1: your conduct be without covetousness, right, So you don't need
Speaker 1: to covaousness would be like, oh, the people in Egypt
Speaker 1: have this. Oh I want that. I want that. I
Speaker 1: want that. No, no, no, Let your conduct be without covetousness.
Speaker 1: Be content with such things as you have. You know,
Speaker 1: you got this job, you have this family, you have
Speaker 1: these kids, and you're like, oh, I want that. Oh
Speaker 1: you look at people on social media, Oh I want
Speaker 1: I wish I can have that kind of life. And
Speaker 1: even though their their life is all made up anyways,
Speaker 1: not everybody's life on social media, but you know a
Speaker 1: lot of them are You see the happy moments, but
Speaker 1: you don't see the sad, you know. But so, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's basically what God is saying here in Hebrews thirteen,
Speaker 1: verses five through six, through Paul, who I think the
Speaker 1: author is, I will never leave you, no forsake you. Right,
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's we may boldly say the Lord is
Speaker 1: my helper, and I want to fear. What can man
Speaker 1: do to me? Yes? Amen? All right, let's continue numbers
Speaker 1: eleven verse. Then Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families,
Speaker 1: everyone at the door of his tent, and the anger
Speaker 1: of the Lord is greatly aroused. Moses also was displeased.
Speaker 1: So Moses said to the Lord, why have you afflicted
Speaker 1: your servant? Why have you? Why have I not found
Speaker 1: favor in your sight? That you have laid the burden
Speaker 1: of these people on me? Did I conceive all these people?
Speaker 1: Did I begat them? Like? Basically? Like? Am I their father?
Speaker 1: That's basically what he's saying. Right there? Did I conceive
Speaker 1: all these people? Did I begat them? Right? Am I
Speaker 1: their dad? Like? Why are they all? Why do I
Speaker 1: have to have the burden of all these people? Will
Speaker 1: continue that you should say to me, carry them in
Speaker 1: your bosom as a guardian carries a nursing child to
Speaker 1: the land which you swore to their fathers. Where am
Speaker 1: I to get the meat to give to all these people?
Speaker 1: For they weep over me, saying give us meat that
Speaker 1: we may eat. I am not able to bear all
Speaker 1: these people alone, because the burden is too heavy for me.
Speaker 1: If you treat me like this, please kill me here
Speaker 1: and now. If I found favor in your sight, and
Speaker 1: do not let me see your righteousness my rightlessness, do
Speaker 1: not let me see my rightlessness? See? See this is
Speaker 1: this is you could tell that this is stressing him out.
Speaker 1: And you're you're probably he's probably like, uh, there's probably
Speaker 1: a side of him coming out that he doesn't that
Speaker 1: he doesn't like people to see. Is righteousness, righteousness, wretchedness. Sorry,
Speaker 1: So he's saying, you know, if I found favor in
Speaker 1: your sight, then you know, kill me here and now,
Speaker 1: because these people are really affecting him, you could tell.
Speaker 1: And uh, and it's and he's he's stressed out. I
Speaker 1: mean you could You can imagine living in a tent, moving,
Speaker 1: stopping all the stuff that God has telling them to do,
Speaker 1: and the people start grumbling and complaining to you. Now,
Speaker 1: like I said, and I was a sergeant and when
Speaker 1: when you know I had you know, for I was
Speaker 1: basically over five soldiers. When when when we're in AI
Speaker 1: or at annual training and there's that's just five people,
Speaker 1: I could imagine two million people, you know, and anybody
Speaker 1: that's that's been a boss or a lead over over people,
Speaker 1: you understand, it's hard to make everybody happy. Even when
Speaker 1: you only have like ten, ten employees, maybe twenty, maybe thirty,
Speaker 1: you can imagine two million people. So all these people,
Speaker 1: once the complaining starts, it's like a cancer so once
Speaker 1: the complaining starts on one section, it's a crapout session.
Speaker 1: For all you know, it spreads, and that's probably what
Speaker 1: was happening there and Moses having a deal with all
Speaker 1: these people, the seventy elders is this one, So we
Speaker 1: got numbers eleven verse sixteen. So the Lord said to Moses,
Speaker 1: gather to me seventy men of the elders of Israel,
Speaker 1: whom you know to be elders of the people, and
Speaker 1: officers over them. Bring them the tabernacle of the meeting,
Speaker 1: that they may stand there with you. Then I will
Speaker 1: come down and talk with you there. I will take
Speaker 1: of the spirit that is upon you. I will take
Speaker 1: of the spirit that is upon you, and will put
Speaker 1: the same upon them. Okay, that is very interesting. I
Speaker 1: will take this spirit that is upon you, which I
Speaker 1: believe would be God's Holy Spirit, and I will put
Speaker 1: the same upon them, and they shall bear the burden
Speaker 1: of the people with you, that you may not bear
Speaker 1: it yourself. So he's basically saying that that the seventy elders,
Speaker 1: He's going to have them basically a system right, and
Speaker 1: that way he's not so bogged down with all that
Speaker 1: with everybody then you shall say to the people, consecrate
Speaker 1: yourselves for tomorrow, and you and you shall eat meat,
Speaker 1: For you have wept in the hearing of the Lord, saying,
Speaker 1: who will give us meat to eat? For it is
Speaker 1: well with us? For it was well with us in Egypt.
Speaker 1: Therefore the Lord will give you meat, and you shall eat.
Speaker 1: You shall eat not one day, nor two days, nor
Speaker 1: five days, nor ten days, nor twenty days, but for
Speaker 1: a whole month, until it comes out of your nostrils
Speaker 1: and becomes loathsome to you, because you have despised the
Speaker 1: Lord who is among you, and have wept before him,
Speaker 1: saying why did you ever come out of Egypt? So
Speaker 1: he is God is like, Okay, you want meat. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna give you so much meat. It's gonna be coming
Speaker 1: out of your nostrils and you're gonna you're gonna dislike
Speaker 1: it after that. So you know, that's that's the way
Speaker 1: God was moving, That's the way he was working. Numbers eleven,
Speaker 1: verse twenty one. And Moses said, the people whom I
Speaker 1: am among, or six hundred thousand men on foot, Yet
Speaker 1: you have said I will give them meat that they
Speaker 1: may eat for a whole month. Shall flocks and herds
Speaker 1: be slaughtered for them to provide enough for them, Or
Speaker 1: shall all fish of the sea be gathered together for
Speaker 1: them to provide them for them? And the Lord said
Speaker 1: to Moses, has the Lord's arm been shortened? That's a
Speaker 1: way of saying like, do you you know, do you
Speaker 1: not think I could provide meat or create meat? And
Speaker 1: you know, kind of the same thing that Jesus did.
Speaker 1: You know what the seven loaves of bread and the
Speaker 1: fish and the in mark, and then you know what
Speaker 1: Jesus did when he provided for the five thousand people.
Speaker 1: You know he he was able to provide. And and
Speaker 1: God is basically telling Moses, has the Lord's arms shortened?
Speaker 1: Let's see what that says in the in the strongest concordance,
Speaker 1: Like what does it mean in the Hebrew and not
Speaker 1: saying the strong concordance is one hundred percent accurate all
Speaker 1: the time, but it's not God breathed. But I still
Speaker 1: like to look it up just to kind of get
Speaker 1: a better definition than what my English mind would say.
Speaker 1: And the King James says is waxed short to be short,
Speaker 1: to be impatient, be vexed to be grieved. Okay, so
Speaker 1: has the Lord's arm been shortened. Now you shall see
Speaker 1: whether what I say what happened to you or not.
Speaker 1: Basically telling Moses, I'm God, you know, have faith like
Speaker 1: you don't think I could do this? Like, come on, man,
Speaker 1: I split the Red Sea for you. I've done this,
Speaker 1: I've done that, and I'll give you guys mana. Every
Speaker 1: day I provide mana. So what do you think I
Speaker 1: can't provide meat? So Moses went out. This is numbers eleven,
Speaker 1: verse twenty four. So Moses went out and told the
Speaker 1: people the words of the Lord. And he gathered to
Speaker 1: seventy men of the elders of the people and placed
Speaker 1: him around the tabernacle. Then the Lord came down in
Speaker 1: the cloud and spoke to him and took the spirit
Speaker 1: that was upon him and placed the same upon the
Speaker 1: seventy elders. And it happened when the spirit rested upon
Speaker 1: them that they prophesied all day they although they never
Speaker 1: did so again. So is this God's holy spirit that
Speaker 1: He's putting on them? Very interesting? This is verse twenty four.
Speaker 1: Came down in the cloud and spoke to him and
Speaker 1: took the spirit. Probably spirit on here is going to
Speaker 1: probably just say wind breath, mind spirit. Very interesting. Two
Speaker 1: men remained in the camp. Okay, so, but this is
Speaker 1: the numbers eleven, verse twenty six. But two men had
Speaker 1: remained in the camp. The name was e Lad, and
Speaker 1: the name of the other Medad. The spirit rested upon them.
Speaker 1: Now they were among those listed, but had not gone
Speaker 1: out to the tabernacle yet. They prophesied in the camp.
Speaker 1: And a young man ran and told Moses and said, ill,
Speaker 1: the Dad and Medad are prophesizing in the camp. So, Joshua,
Speaker 1: the son of None, here we go, Joshua. That's who
Speaker 1: I'm named after, Joshua, and I'm also named My middle
Speaker 1: name is Caleb. So Joshua the son of None, Moses
Speaker 1: assistant were in numbers eleven, verse twenty eight. One of
Speaker 1: his choice men answered and said, Moses, my Lord forbid
Speaker 1: them numbers eleven, verse twenty nine. Then Moses said to him,
Speaker 1: are you zealous for my sake? Oh? That the all
Speaker 1: the Lord's people were prophets, and that the Lord would
Speaker 1: put his spirit upon them. And Moses returned to the
Speaker 1: camp and the elders of Israel. So God put his
Speaker 1: spirit upon them, and they were prophesied. And Moses said
Speaker 1: to him, Are you zealous for my sake? Oh, that
Speaker 1: the Lord's people were prophets, and that the Lord shall
Speaker 1: put his spirit upon them. And Moses returned to the
Speaker 1: camp and the elders of Israel. Now this is numbers eleven,
Speaker 1: verse thirty one. Now, well, win went out from the Lord,
Speaker 1: and it brought quail from the sea and left them
Speaker 1: fluttering near the camp, about a day's journey on the side,
Speaker 1: about a day's journey on the other side, all around
Speaker 1: the camp, about two cubits above the surface of the ground.
Speaker 1: And the people stayed up all day, all night, and
Speaker 1: all the next day and gathered the quail who were
Speaker 1: least gathered ten homers. He who gathered less least gathered
Speaker 1: ten homers. I don't know what homers is. I can
Speaker 1: maybe check it out real quick. Numbers twelve eleven, verse
Speaker 1: thirty two. Let's see, I could find out what a
Speaker 1: homer is. Homer, what is it? They gathered the quills
Speaker 1: gathered ten homers cement motor clay homer a unit of
Speaker 1: dry measure about sixty five imperial gallons for three hundred liters. Interesting,
Speaker 1: all right, So there we go, and they spread them
Speaker 1: out from themselves all around the camp. But while the
Speaker 1: meat was still between their teeth, between it was chewed,
Speaker 1: the wrath of the Lord was aroused against the people,
Speaker 1: and the Lord struck the people with a great, very
Speaker 1: great plague. So we called the name of the place
Speaker 1: Cabra Hatava, Cabra Hatava because they were buried, because they
Speaker 1: buried the people who had yielded to craving for Carath
Speaker 1: Habat hatavas the people moved to Hezroth, the camp of Hezirath. Okay,
Speaker 1: so we're finished with the chapter eleven. Let's see what
Speaker 1: that that term means. What does it mean, because obviously
Speaker 1: I don't graves of lust, that's what it means. That's
Speaker 1: what Cabra Tava means, graves of lust. And you see,
Speaker 1: like God handled people differently because he was actually literally
Speaker 1: in the camp, you know, like over the tabernacle, and
Speaker 1: and he's putting his Holy spirit on people and he's
Speaker 1: doing he's doing all these things for the children of Israel.
Speaker 1: And they and you see what happened. You know, they
Speaker 1: they ended up getting killed with a plague, a great plague.
Speaker 1: So they arouse God's anger instead of appreciating getting taken
Speaker 1: out of the Egypt and God doing all these things
Speaker 1: for them, they started grumbling, complaining, And obviously that's something
Speaker 1: we need to learn. We don't the things that God
Speaker 1: gives us. We need to appreciate whatsoever. Therefore, you eat
Speaker 1: or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the
Speaker 1: glory of God. One Corinthians ten, verse thirty one. Understand that.
Speaker 1: So we need to appreciate what God has given us.
Speaker 1: You know, whatever you have, give glory to the Father, right,
Speaker 1: give glory to God. And we got to understand. We
Speaker 1: got to understand that and learn from this. Now, is
Speaker 1: it hard as a human being not to complain? Yes,
Speaker 1: it is. It is hard because especially because we can't
Speaker 1: see God, and sometimes we lose a faith, and that's
Speaker 1: why our faith is tested. And these people's faith might
Speaker 1: be tested. They might have failed to test miserably, right,
Speaker 1: and the devil's probably tempting them to complain, and they're
Speaker 1: falling into sin. So trusting God is you know, not
Speaker 1: trusting God is a sin. Okay, we need to put
Speaker 1: our trust in the Lord. And it says in the
Speaker 1: New Testament that the birds they don't ever have they
Speaker 1: don't have a barn, but they still eat. But you're
Speaker 1: more important than a bird. You know what, more important
Speaker 1: are you than a bird? So you're gonna eat. You
Speaker 1: just have to depend on God and you'll be good.
Speaker 1: Numbers twelve, verse one The dissension of Arian and Marriam
Speaker 1: dissension yep. Then Marriam and Arian spoke against Moses because
Speaker 1: of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married. Then then
Speaker 1: Aaron and Mariam spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian
Speaker 1: woman whom he had married. For he had married an
Speaker 1: Ethiopian woman. So they said, has the Lord indeed spoken
Speaker 1: only through Moses? Has he not spoken through us? Also?
Speaker 1: And the Lord heard it. Now, the man Moses was
Speaker 1: very humble, more than all men who were on the
Speaker 1: face of the earth. So I'm seeing here that Mariam
Speaker 1: and Arian spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman
Speaker 1: whom he had married. What was the name of this woman?
Speaker 1: Maybe that's the father in law. I don't know, is
Speaker 1: that the father in law of the Ethiopian woman that
Speaker 1: he's that has the different name? How come scholars wouldn't
Speaker 1: pick up on that if I picked up on it
Speaker 1: right there. So let's check this out real quick. Woman
Speaker 1: Moses married Moses and his Ethiopian wife Zafara, Oh by
Speaker 1: the Flemish painter. Okay, what was the name of the Opium?
Speaker 1: Presumably this woman was Zafara, the daughter of Jethro, since
Speaker 1: there was no indication that Moses had more than one wife. However,
Speaker 1: she is called a Midianite. Okay, So this is probably
Speaker 1: the part right here where they said that some scholars
Speaker 1: believe he had a second wife. Well, I don't know
Speaker 1: if Zafara was Ethiopian, because it seems like when we
Speaker 1: read in Exodus, I remember her being a Midianite. So
Speaker 1: it looks like it looks like to me. I don't
Speaker 1: know about to you guys, but we've been following the
Speaker 1: whole entire Bible, and it seems to me that he
Speaker 1: married Moses married an Ethiopian woman, which is different than
Speaker 1: the Medianite. I don't know, that's what I'm getting. So
Speaker 1: what's happening here is Mariam and an Arian spoke against
Speaker 1: Moses because of the Opian woman who he had married,
Speaker 1: for he had married an Ethiopian woman. So they said,
Speaker 1: has the Lord indeed spoken only through Moses? Has he
Speaker 1: not spoken through us? Also? And the Lord heard it?
Speaker 1: Now the man Moses was very humble, more than all
Speaker 1: men who were on the face of the earth. Now
Speaker 1: we're at number twelve, verse four. Suddenly the Lord said
Speaker 1: to Moses, Aaron and Marian, come out, you three to
Speaker 1: the tabernacle of meeting. So the three came out, and
Speaker 1: the Lord came down in the pillar of cloud and
Speaker 1: stood in the door of the tabernacle and called Aaron
Speaker 1: and Mariam, and they both went forward, and he said,
Speaker 1: this is the word of God, the literal word of God.
Speaker 1: Hear now my words? Is there a prophet among you?
Speaker 1: I the Lord make myself known to him in a vision,
Speaker 1: and dream are to him in a vision. I speak
Speaker 1: to him in a dream. So what he's saying is
Speaker 1: I come to prophets in visions and in dreams. Right,
Speaker 1: But when I speak to Moses. Not so with my
Speaker 1: servant Moses. Let's let's read it word for word. He
Speaker 1: is faithful in all my house. I speak to him
Speaker 1: face to face, even plainly, not in dark sayings. And
Speaker 1: he sees the form of the Lord when they were
Speaker 1: not when they were. You not afraid to speak against
Speaker 1: my servant, Moses, Why then, are you not afraid to
Speaker 1: speak against my servant Moses, so he's basically putting Aaron
Speaker 1: and Merriam in their place. This is very interesting now.
Speaker 1: I like the fact that he says even plainly, not
Speaker 1: in dark sayings, so like, I'm not speaking to him
Speaker 1: in metaphors, I'm not speaking him in parables. I speak
Speaker 1: to him plainly. And in Exodus he says God says
Speaker 1: He's speaks to him like a friend, which I think
Speaker 1: is fascinating and amazing. That's why I'm saying, guys, it's
Speaker 1: it's like it's it's different. That's why the punishments were
Speaker 1: different because look what it says here. God came down
Speaker 1: on a cloud and spoke to Aaron and Marriam and Moses.
Speaker 1: So the punishments would be vastly worse because these people
Speaker 1: can see God working. Literally. God works in my life too.
Speaker 1: God worked in my life. And it's like it was
Speaker 1: like throughout everything I was going through, God was working
Speaker 1: for me, and I felt that God was working for me,
Speaker 1: and I knew God was working for me. I knew
Speaker 1: when I came to Jesus, i quit all these things
Speaker 1: that I had going on. But it's it's different back
Speaker 1: then because God was literally coming down on a cloud
Speaker 1: and speaking to Aaron and Marriam and Moses. So if
Speaker 1: you saw that and you knew that God is speaking
Speaker 1: to Moses face to face, and you were in that
Speaker 1: camp and you still sinned against God, still grumbled and
Speaker 1: complained even after seeing that physically with your own eyes,
Speaker 1: then you are getting destroyed. And you know, and that's
Speaker 1: why people were killed in the camp and and plagues
Speaker 1: and because God was physically right there. You don't want
Speaker 1: to say that. You want to try to say, no,
Speaker 1: this is not that, this is that God's not there.
Speaker 1: Look what it says. Literally, he comes down on the
Speaker 1: cloud and speaks to Aaron, Miriam and Moses. So that's
Speaker 1: why when people say, oh, the God of the Old
Speaker 1: Testament is different than the God of the New Testament. Oh,
Speaker 1: this is the bubb up people, don't They have to
Speaker 1: read the whole Old Testament first and then and then
Speaker 1: understand it. Right. But it's it's fascinating right here. I
Speaker 1: think for me seeing this is amazing. But you see
Speaker 1: what happened because Aaron and Mariam were complaining, trying to
Speaker 1: say like, oh, you don't speak through us to like
Speaker 1: we're not special too, Like you see, it's it's a
Speaker 1: pride thing, right, it's a pride thing. Why is Moses
Speaker 1: so special? Well, God can say that Moses is special
Speaker 1: if he wants and and and Moses is humble, it said, right,
Speaker 1: He's the most humble on the face of the earth.
Speaker 1: So he's not thinking like hey, like Moses is not
Speaker 1: having any thoughts like hey, how come you speak through
Speaker 1: Aaron and Merriam too? Once you only speak through me.
Speaker 1: He's not asking that. But Aaron and Mariam are saying,
Speaker 1: what's so special about Moses? Because Aaron and Merriam are
Speaker 1: the brother of Moses and sister brother and sister of Moses. Right,
Speaker 1: So sounds like some jealousy is happening. So more complaining
Speaker 1: and more grumbling, even though they don't understand how amazing
Speaker 1: it is for God to be coming and talking to them.
Speaker 1: Be happy that he's speaking to any of you. Guys.
Speaker 1: You're lucky. You know you're not. You're lucky. Sents didn't
Speaker 1: say that you're blessed. You know it's not about luck.
Speaker 1: I shouldnt even say lucky. I'm sorry. It's a figure
Speaker 1: of speech that we use, you know, but uh, there
Speaker 1: was something I wanted to Oh, dark sayings I want
Speaker 1: to look that up. So numbers twelve verse eight. Numbers
Speaker 1: twelve verse eight, and see, guys, when I'm not tired,
Speaker 1: I'm into this man. I love it. Sorry, I was
Speaker 1: so tired last week. I had so much going on.
Speaker 1: Let's see in dark speeches, what does that mean? Riddles,
Speaker 1: difficult questions or parables? Yeah, I was correct about that.
Speaker 1: So so before we go on, this is why I
Speaker 1: think that the Book of Genesis and everything this is
Speaker 1: first hand account from God, God speaking to Moses. Like like,
Speaker 1: you see, it's just a little differ. Now we have
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit speaking through you know, Matthew, Mark Luke, John, Paul,
Speaker 1: Jude James. You see, he's speaking through them. All scriptures
Speaker 1: inspired by God. Right, it's inspired by God. But Moses,
Speaker 1: the first five books of the Torah, God spoke to
Speaker 1: him face to face and mouth to mouth. Now all
Speaker 1: the other prophets, God came to them, and what it
Speaker 1: says right here in visions and in dreams. So all
Speaker 1: the visions and dreams we're seeing throughout the Bible are
Speaker 1: coming from whom. Well, the visions and dreams to the
Speaker 1: prophets are coming from the most high. So that validates
Speaker 1: all them as well. Right, So when someone says, why
Speaker 1: are you gonna believe that it was just a vision, Oh,
Speaker 1: who's the vision from It's from God. God cannot lie.
Speaker 1: Titus one too. It's impossible for God to lie Hebrews
Speaker 1: six eighteen. And also in the Book of Deuteronomy it
Speaker 1: says that God is not a man that he should lie.
Speaker 1: So this stuff is just it's amazing. Let's go Numbers twelve,
Speaker 1: verse nine. So the anger of the Lord was aroused
Speaker 1: against them, and he departed. And when the cloud departed
Speaker 1: from above the tabernacles, suddenly Marriam became leprous, as white
Speaker 1: as snow. Then Aaron turned toward Mariam, and there was
Speaker 1: and she was a leper. So Aaron said to Moses, Oh,
Speaker 1: my Lord, please do not lay this sin on us,
Speaker 1: in which we have done foolishly, in which we have sinned.
Speaker 1: Please do not let her be as one dead whose
Speaker 1: flesh is half consumed when it comes out of his
Speaker 1: mother's womb. So Moses cried out to Lord, saying, please
Speaker 1: heal her. Oh, Lord, I pray. And then the Lord
Speaker 1: said to Moses, if her father had put okay, if
Speaker 1: her father had put spit in her face, would she
Speaker 1: not be shamed seven days? Let her be shut out
Speaker 1: of the camp seven days, and afterwards she may be
Speaker 1: received again. So Mariam was shut out of the camp
Speaker 1: seven days, and the people did not journey till Mariam
Speaker 1: was brought in again. And afterwards the people moved from
Speaker 1: Hazarath and camped in the wilderness of Paran. You see,
Speaker 1: they got they got a she got a spanking right there,
Speaker 1: she got punished. Maybe she was the agitator that had them.
Speaker 1: And then also Aaron is actually a high priest, so
Speaker 1: he can't get leprosy or he's you know, you can't
Speaker 1: be a priest anymore. So if God would have gave
Speaker 1: Aaron leprosy right here, you can't be a priest. We
Speaker 1: read that in Leviticus. So you see that Mariam got
Speaker 1: it instead. She was she was maybe the agitator. Was
Speaker 1: she the one? I don't know, Was she the one
Speaker 1: putting that in Aaron's ear saying like, hey, why is
Speaker 1: good speaking through? You know, we don't know exactly because
Speaker 1: it says Aaron and Mariam, but Mariam ended up being
Speaker 1: the one that got the leprosy. So I can only
Speaker 1: speculate what was going on here but a fascinating portion
Speaker 1: numbers twelve. I have actually have number six on my wall.
Speaker 1: I have verses on my wall everywhere. So anyway, now
Speaker 1: we get to a very interesting portion of the Book
Speaker 1: of Numbers that all my conspiracy theorists would love. We
Speaker 1: have numbers thirteen, which I'm sure if you have listened
Speaker 1: to Gary Wayne or any of these people, or you
Speaker 1: heard any of my nepheline stuff, or any of you
Speaker 1: guys have heard these verses. But now you get to
Speaker 1: hear these verses after hearing all the other verses that
Speaker 1: lead up to this, of just hearing me say, in
Speaker 1: numbers thirteen, you know it talks about nepheline, or in
Speaker 1: Genesis sixty four it talks about afflete. Now you get
Speaker 1: to hear everything that build up. And I'm sure you
Speaker 1: guys have been following along. A lot of people have
Speaker 1: been saying that they've been following along every episode, which
Speaker 1: is amazing and I think is great for us because
Speaker 1: now when we get to this portion of scripture, we
Speaker 1: know exactly where they're at. They've been in the wilderness
Speaker 1: for about a year, you know, not knowing exactly the
Speaker 1: amount of time, but probably you know, maybe a year
Speaker 1: or two. You know that they've been moving. They got
Speaker 1: the trumpets when they go to war, They got all
Speaker 1: these things ready. They already did the found out how
Speaker 1: many men above twenty so they can form an army.
Speaker 1: Now they got an army going. They got a bunch
Speaker 1: of people that are soldiers ready to go. And now
Speaker 1: we get to the portion of numbers thirteen, verse one.
Speaker 1: And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, send men to
Speaker 1: spy out the land of Canaan, in which I'm giving
Speaker 1: to the children of Israel. Right, that's the promised land,
Speaker 1: the land of Canaan. And as you see in the
Speaker 1: Book of Genesis, Abraham was having the five King four
Speaker 1: king war. Abraham was fighting, and you know he was
Speaker 1: among the people of Canaan. Right, So in Canaan you
Speaker 1: have the Parents, the Pizites, the Hittites, the Gibusites, and
Speaker 1: all these different clans, and a lot of them were
Speaker 1: giant tribes. So that's what you're going to see here.
Speaker 1: And you know that's why, that's why Abraham didn't want
Speaker 1: Isaac to marry a woman from that was a Canaanite.
Speaker 1: He wanted him to go back to his land. Four
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty miles away, and the same thing Isaac
Speaker 1: wanted Jacob to do. Jacob ended up sending Jacob four
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty miles away, or however far away. They
Speaker 1: were to go back and marry, you know, to go
Speaker 1: back and get married. So yeah, so let's go numbers twelve.
Speaker 1: Will continue our numbers thirteen verse three. So Moses sent
Speaker 1: them from the wilderness of Puran, according to the command
Speaker 1: of the Lord, all of them who were heads of
Speaker 1: the children of Israel. Now these were the names from
Speaker 1: the tribe of Reuben Shama, the son of Zakar, from
Speaker 1: the tribe of Simeon. Shafat, the son of Hori, from
Speaker 1: the tribe of Judah, Caleb, the son of Japanu Japanese
Speaker 1: from the tribe of Ishkar Agal, the son of Joseph
Speaker 1: from the tribe of Iphrium Ephrium Hoshea, the son of
Speaker 1: None from the tribe of Benjamin Patai, the son of
Speaker 1: Rafu from the tribe of Zileon Gadiel, the son of
Speaker 1: Sadai from the tribe of Joseph, that is, the tribe
Speaker 1: of Manassai. Gadai, the son of Sushi from the tribe
Speaker 1: of Dan Emilia the son of Gamali, this tribe of Ashers,
Speaker 1: through the son of Michael, from the tribe of Naftali.
Speaker 1: Neabaiah the son of Vashi, from the tribe of God,
Speaker 1: Ghoul the son of Machai. These are the names of
Speaker 1: the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land.
Speaker 1: And Moses called Hoshiah, the son of None Joshua. So
Speaker 1: his name was Hoshia before and then he became Yoshua,
Speaker 1: which is that is the name of our Messiah, Yoshua,
Speaker 1: y Shuah the mashiak right, So this is Joshua. And
Speaker 1: he was called Hoshia before and then become Yoshua, right.
Speaker 1: So and I think it means God's salvation. God is salvation,
Speaker 1: is what Joshua means. God is salvation. Amazing, So, real quick,
Speaker 1: this portion right here on the top, numbers thirteen one.
Speaker 1: Let me get to my notes, real quick, number thirteen Okay,
Speaker 1: So there's a little kind of interesting part here well,
Speaker 1: numbers thirteen one. See it says that and the Lord
Speaker 1: spoke to Moses saying, send men to spy out the
Speaker 1: land of Canaan. But when you go to Deuteronomy, it
Speaker 1: says Deuteronomy one twenty two. Let's check that out real quick.
Speaker 1: Deuteronomy one twenty two. Sorry, I got a little bit
Speaker 1: of liquid here. I want to dry up, so fast, man. Okay,
Speaker 1: there we got Excuse me, I just don't want to
Speaker 1: get that on my phone. Whatever. All right, let's go
Speaker 1: Deuteronomy one twenty two. It seems that in Deuteronomy one
Speaker 1: twenty two it was the people that, uh, okay, here
Speaker 1: we go Israel's refusal to enter the land. This is
Speaker 1: Deuteronomy one nineteen. So we departed from Harib and went
Speaker 1: through all the great and terrible wilderness which you saw
Speaker 1: on the way, to the mountains of the Amorites, as
Speaker 1: the Lord our God had commanded us. Then we came
Speaker 1: to kadish Burnia, and I said to you, you have
Speaker 1: come to the mountains of the Amorites, which Amorites are giants,
Speaker 1: which the Lord our God has given us. Look, the
Speaker 1: Lord your God has set the land before you. Go
Speaker 1: up and possess it, as the Lord God your fathers
Speaker 1: have spoken to you. Do not fear or be discouraged.
Speaker 1: And every one of you came near to me and said,
Speaker 1: let us send men before us, and let them search
Speaker 1: out the land for us and bring back word to
Speaker 1: us by the way by which you should go, and
Speaker 1: the cities in which we shall come. The plan pleased
Speaker 1: me well, so I took twelve of your men, one
Speaker 1: man from each tribe, and they departed and went up
Speaker 1: to the mountains. So when I was studying this, they
Speaker 1: said that this is actually explaining this situation here. And
Speaker 1: what it says in the Book of Deuteronomy is that
Speaker 1: it says that that men came up to him, and
Speaker 1: that book of Numbers it says that the Lord asked
Speaker 1: them to send the spies. And then in Deuteronomy it
Speaker 1: says that the men came up to him. So the
Speaker 1: way that you could interpret this is that probably the
Speaker 1: men came and asked him to send the spies, and
Speaker 1: then Moses probably took it to the Lord. And in
Speaker 1: numbers thirteen we're seeing the after effect of this, and
Speaker 1: it looks like Moses took it to the Lord and
Speaker 1: then the Lord said, send men to spy out the
Speaker 1: land of Canaan. Right, So in the Book of Deuteronomy
Speaker 1: it says that the only thing that I see that's
Speaker 1: kind of different here is which will continue, actually will continue.
Speaker 1: But this that's kind of what this pastor that I
Speaker 1: was kind of studying said, and I've heard people say
Speaker 1: this before, that the people had them send the spies.
Speaker 1: But right here in numbers it says that the Lord's
Speaker 1: spoke to Moses, saints sent send men to spy out
Speaker 1: the land of Canaan. Right, so let's continue. We'll go
Speaker 1: back to numbers thirteen, verse seventeen. Make sure I'm not
Speaker 1: missing anything on my notes. So it says the complimentary accounts.
Speaker 1: Real quick, we'll wait to start. Numbers twelve are thirteen seventeen.
Speaker 1: I just want to tell you, guys, complimentary accounts. Both
Speaker 1: accounts are considered complimentary, with some scholars suggesting that the
Speaker 1: initiative for the spy mission came from the people and
Speaker 1: God then accepted their request. Key difference is numbers thirteen
Speaker 1: ever sizes God's command to Moses to send spies. Deuteronomy
Speaker 1: one twenty two through twenty three highlights the people's request
Speaker 1: to Moses to spies. Significance. Understanding both accounts is crucial
Speaker 1: for a complete picture of the events surrounding the spy
Speaker 1: mission and the Israelite subsequent actions. Okay, so we're done
Speaker 1: with my notes on numbers thirteen, and it looks like
Speaker 1: a All right, let's go numbers thirteen, verse seventeen. Now,
Speaker 1: let's see how this story finishes out. The Moses sent
Speaker 1: them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said
Speaker 1: to them, go up this way into the south, and
Speaker 1: go up to the mountains, and see what the land
Speaker 1: is like, whether the people who dwell in it are
Speaker 1: strong or weak, for few or many, whether the land
Speaker 1: they dwell in is good or bad, whether the cities
Speaker 1: they inhabit are like camps or strongholds, whether the land
Speaker 1: is rich or poor, whether there are forests there or not.
Speaker 1: Be of good courage and bring some of the fruit
Speaker 1: of the land. Now the time was the season for
Speaker 1: the first ripe grapes. So they went up and spied
Speaker 1: out the land for the wilderness of zin as far
Speaker 1: as Rahab, near the entrance of Hamath. And they went
Speaker 1: up through the south and came to Hebron Aha Man Sashai,
Speaker 1: and Talamai, the descendants of a knock were there. Okay,
Speaker 1: hold on, really quick, we'll stop right there real quick.
Speaker 1: The descendants of a knock. Let's find out who that's
Speaker 1: the first tribe that they mentioned. Who were the descendants
Speaker 1: of a knock known as the Anakites, were a formidable
Speaker 1: tribe of giants who lived in the southern part of
Speaker 1: Canaan near her Bron and were later expelled by the Israelites.
Speaker 1: The Anakim are mentioned in the Old Testament books. Did
Speaker 1: I say yeah the Anakites? So the Anakin were mentioned
Speaker 1: in the Old Testament books of Genesis, Deuteronomy, Joshua, and Judges.
Speaker 1: Location the inhabited southern part of Canaan, specifically near Herbron,
Speaker 1: also known as Cabra, a Bra which was later taken
Speaker 1: by the Israelites. Appearance the Spies went to Moses account
Speaker 1: and the Land described the Anakm as giants, causing fear
Speaker 1: among the Israelites. Okay, cool, just want to say there's
Speaker 1: possible connection to Philistine giants. Some scholars believe that the
Speaker 1: Philistine science science giants such as Goliath, whom David encountered,
Speaker 1: may have been descendants of the Anakin. Very interesting. The
Speaker 1: Anakin were also referred to as Raphite, as a Raphite
Speaker 1: tribe like rafaem right. The name of the name may
Speaker 1: came from a Hebrew root meaning necklace or neck chain. Okay,
Speaker 1: let's continue we were at numbers thirteen twenty two, halfway through.
Speaker 1: Now Hobram was built seven years before Zohen in Egypt,
Speaker 1: they came into the valley of es Coal, and they
Speaker 1: cut down a branch with one cluster of grapes and
Speaker 1: carried it between two of them on a pole, and
Speaker 1: they brought some of the pomegranates and figs. The place
Speaker 1: was called the valley of Coal because of the cluster
Speaker 1: which the men of Israel cut down there. And they
Speaker 1: returned from spying out of the land after forty days,
Speaker 1: and now they departed. It came back to Moses and
Speaker 1: Aaron and all the congregation, to children of Israel in
Speaker 1: the wilderness of Puran and Kadesh, and they brought back
Speaker 1: word to them and to all the congregation had showed
Speaker 1: them the fruit of the land. And they told them
Speaker 1: and said, we went to the land where you sent us.
Speaker 1: It truly flows with milk and honey, and this is
Speaker 1: its fruit. Nevertheless, the people who dwell in the land
Speaker 1: are strong, the cities are fortified and very large. Moreover,
Speaker 1: we saw the descendants of a knock there, and the
Speaker 1: Amalekites dwell in the land of the south. The Hittites
Speaker 1: the Jebusites and the Amurites dwell in the mountains, and
Speaker 1: the Canaanites dwell in the land of the sea along
Speaker 1: with the banks of the Jordan. Now, let's see what's
Speaker 1: going on with these tribes. Never less, people who dwell
Speaker 1: among the cities of forty five are large more of
Speaker 1: what we saw. The descendants of a knock, which we
Speaker 1: already know, are the Amalekites, right are the Anekin sorry, Anakites?
Speaker 1: Right now, let's see what the Amalekites are. The Amalekites
Speaker 1: dwell in the land in the south. What are the Malkites?
Speaker 1: According to the biblical tradition that Malakites a nomadic people
Speaker 1: who were a constant enemy of the Israelites, and in
Speaker 1: some interpretations they were seen as representing the forces of
Speaker 1: evil and opposition to God. The Amalekites were presented as
Speaker 1: descendants of a Malik, the grandson of Esau through his
Speaker 1: son Elephas. Malachites were depicted as nomadic group of the Nikaev,
Speaker 1: a journeying to some recurring enemy of the Israels, particularly
Speaker 1: the journey through the Wilderness and the early period of monarchy.
Speaker 1: Malachites were seen as a symbol of evil opposition to God.
Speaker 1: The biblical injunction to utterly destroy them has been interpreted
Speaker 1: as a call to fight against the forces of evil,
Speaker 1: and Malachites were defeated by Joshua n Gideon. Later interpretations
Speaker 1: and later just their important enemies of visual identifies descendants
Speaker 1: of a Malik, and some Jews even associated Malik with
Speaker 1: the Roman Empire of medieval Christians. Ah. Really modern interpretations
Speaker 1: during the all right, you know what, let me see.
Speaker 1: Let's see. Were the wire Kites giants? While the Bible
Speaker 1: doesn't explicitly state that the Amalekites were giants, the context
Speaker 1: of this, they were a powerful and formidable people, possibly
Speaker 1: even larger than the Israelites, as evidence of the Israelites
Speaker 1: fear them. Okay, So it doesn't explicitly state that they
Speaker 1: are giants, the Amalekites, Okay, But the anoch It does
Speaker 1: say that they were giants. The Amalekites dwell inland of
Speaker 1: the South. Okay, let's find out about the Hittites. You know,
Speaker 1: this is the type of stuff that Gary Wayne was.
Speaker 1: While the Bible mentions Gian giants rap Anakim Nephelim in
Speaker 1: the land of Canaan there are no evidence in the
Speaker 1: Bible or archaeolgral records to suggest that the Hittites among
Speaker 1: them selves were giants or that they were associated with
Speaker 1: giants described the Bible. Now, I believe Hittites are mentioned
Speaker 1: the Old Testament, but not as giants. Okay, So I
Speaker 1: thought that the who Rights and the Hittites were giant tribes.
Speaker 1: But I'd have to kind of study. The Nephiling were
Speaker 1: also mentioned in the Bible as giants, but there's no
Speaker 1: direct connection between them and the Hittites. Well, there's a
Speaker 1: connection here because it's talking about the descendants of a
Speaker 1: knock that Amalekites, the hit Tites, the Jebi Sites. I
Speaker 1: know the Amorites were definitely giants. So we got a
Speaker 1: knock and the Amorites are for sure giants. Let's check
Speaker 1: out the Jebusites. So all these people are definitely enemies
Speaker 1: of Jbu Site. Anakites a group of Raphayim, a giant tribe.
Speaker 1: Amorites a group that were generally very large, stole, and strong.
Speaker 1: It might okay, So yeah, I'd have to do some
Speaker 1: more research for you guys. I can't do it on
Speaker 1: the spot here, but I know that the Anak and
Speaker 1: the Amorites were definitely a giant. So the am Rights
Speaker 1: dwell on the land. The Amorites were the king of Bashan,
Speaker 1: which we know his bed was fifteen by nine feet
Speaker 1: fifteen feet by nine feet. They were giants. And the
Speaker 1: am Rights also fought against Joshua, and they fought against
Speaker 1: the Israelites in Joshua ten verse twelve, where God stopped
Speaker 1: the moon and the sun from moving until they avenge
Speaker 1: their enemies. The am Rights dwell on the mountains. We're
Speaker 1: going to go back to the scriptures now we're at
Speaker 1: numbers thirteen, verse twenty nine. The Amalekites dwell on the
Speaker 1: land in the south, the Hittites, the Jebisites, and the
Speaker 1: am Rights dwell on the mountains, and the Canaanites dwell
Speaker 1: by the sea, by the sea and along the banks
Speaker 1: of the Jordan. Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses said,
Speaker 1: let us go up at once and take possession for
Speaker 1: all we for all, we are well able to overcome it.
Speaker 1: So Caleb is who I'm also named after as well,
Speaker 1: and my brother's son is actually named after Caleb as well.
Speaker 1: He's got the faith and he's got the military grit.
Speaker 1: He's ready to go. Let us go at once and
Speaker 1: take the possession, for we were able to overcome it,
Speaker 1: For we are well able to overcome it. But the
Speaker 1: men who had gone up with them said, we are
Speaker 1: not able to go up against the people, for they
Speaker 1: were stronger than we. And they gave children of Israel
Speaker 1: a bad report of the land which they had spied out,
Speaker 1: saying the land through which had gone out as spies,
Speaker 1: as a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the
Speaker 1: people whom we saw in it are men of great
Speaker 1: statf Sure, there we saw the giants. The descendants of
Speaker 1: a knock came from the giants, and we were like
Speaker 1: grasshoppers in our own site, and so we were in
Speaker 1: their sight. So what they're saying is they're giving us
Speaker 1: an account where they're saying that the descendants of a
Speaker 1: knock came from the giants, and we were like grasshoppers
Speaker 1: in their site. So there we saw giants. So this
Speaker 1: little part that says the descendants of a knock, this
Speaker 1: is in parentheses, right, So the Amorites are also giants.
Speaker 1: So we know that a knock or giants because we've
Speaker 1: just read it, and I'm pretty sure. In Gary Wayne's book,
Speaker 1: which I have to check, the Hittites and the Jebi sites,
Speaker 1: I think maybe he connected them to be giants as well.
Speaker 1: If you look it up. It doesn't necessarily say that
Speaker 1: there's a direct connection. But Ammonites, okay, Amorites the group
Speaker 1: that were generally tall and strong. So the Amorites definitely so.
Speaker 1: So now were they so big that they were grasshoppers
Speaker 1: and their own site, you know, to these giant men.
Speaker 1: I think that's definitely a metaphor. Right now, because this
Speaker 1: is after the flood, we don't know how big they were.
Speaker 1: We know that Goliath was like they say that there's
Speaker 1: two different things because it's a royal cubit and then
Speaker 1: there's a cubit. So he could have been nine feet
Speaker 1: or he could have been like fifteen feet or something
Speaker 1: like that. So you know, there's you know, a cubit
Speaker 1: could be you know, excuse me, Goliath. What they say
Speaker 1: was about nine feet a royal cubuit, he'd be like,
Speaker 1: what twelve feet or fifteen feet something like that. Just
Speaker 1: let you guys know how big they were. The Gebisites
Speaker 1: were thought to be some related to the herns and
Speaker 1: the head tights. Some scholars suggested that the giants in
Speaker 1: the Bible were only giants relative to the shorter Israelites.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, so we'll tell you that. I'll tell
Speaker 1: you that because some scholars and they would say that
Speaker 1: the Bible also mes a goliath who was described as
Speaker 1: being six cubits, so they span tall, which is about
Speaker 1: nine feet. Some scholars suggest that the giants in the
Speaker 1: Bible were only giants relative to the shorter Israelites. Others
Speaker 1: suggest that the giants were genuine giants over nine feet tall.
Speaker 1: So some scholars would be leaning towards the side that
Speaker 1: Genesis six was Seth and Cain, right, Seth Heites and
Speaker 1: then the descendants of Cain. Other scholars and me would
Speaker 1: say that the sons of God. You know, you guys
Speaker 1: already know. I don't need to explain that we're angels
Speaker 1: having sex with women and having the nepheline. Right. So
Speaker 1: this is a very interesting portion, and this part that
Speaker 1: says that we saw giants, Okay that in in the
Speaker 1: that we're giants. In the King James is gonna say nepheline,
Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken or no, Actually, in the King
Speaker 1: James is probably gonna say giants, but in other interpretations
Speaker 1: they would say Nepheline. And there's always a battle between
Speaker 1: the Israelites and the Nephiline, okay that and God against
Speaker 1: these Nepheline. And God wants to take out the men,
Speaker 1: women and children of a tribe. And you see that
Speaker 1: even in Genesis ten, verse twelve, which I told you
Speaker 1: is about he stops the moon in the sun for
Speaker 1: moving because they're avenging their until they avente their enemies.
Speaker 1: Because God wants to make sure he take they take
Speaker 1: care of these giants and these nepheline. And we know
Speaker 1: that the you know going you know, looking through the
Speaker 1: Book of Enoch, that the that the spirits of these
Speaker 1: Nephiline are actually the demons that are here today. And
Speaker 1: that's what's believed in Jewish history, and it was mentioned
Speaker 1: in the Book of Enoch. And I'm am I telling
Speaker 1: you guys that the Book of Enoch is canon. I
Speaker 1: don't know. There is some discrepancies that people have. Is
Speaker 1: the Book of Enoch the words of Enoch? I don't
Speaker 1: know how can I tell you guys that, but it's
Speaker 1: very interesting. But the spirit of the Nephelene are It
Speaker 1: says it in the Book of Enoch are the demons
Speaker 1: that are here today, so they called the disembodied spirits
Speaker 1: of the Nepheline. They have no body but their spirits Rome,
Speaker 1: and they're assisting Satan in this in the his his
Speaker 1: battle against Man, right, So I thought that was an interesting,
Speaker 1: uh little portion there. Told you guys to stick around.
Speaker 1: If you stuck around till numbers fourteen comment below, and yeah, guys,
Speaker 1: please comment. You know, I love seeing the comments. That
Speaker 1: makes me so happy. And when I see that, and
Speaker 1: also I'll be able to shout you guys out and
Speaker 1: answer your questions if you have any. You know, let's
Speaker 1: see numbers fourteen, verse one. Israel refuses to enter Canaan.
Speaker 1: We'll probably be able to go through fourteen. We got
Speaker 1: about twenty minutes, so numbers fourteen, verse one. So all
Speaker 1: the congregation lifted up their voices and cried, and the
Speaker 1: people wept that night, and all the children of Israel
Speaker 1: complained against Moses and Arian, and the whole congregation said
Speaker 1: to them, if only we had died in land of Egypt,
Speaker 1: or if we had died in this wilderness, why has
Speaker 1: the Lord brought us to this land to fall by
Speaker 1: the sword, and our wives and children should become victims.
Speaker 1: Would it not be better for us to return to Egypt.
Speaker 1: So they said to one another, let us select a
Speaker 1: leader and return to Egypt. You see, the people lost
Speaker 1: their faith. Do they not remember that then when they
Speaker 1: went through the Red Sea, that God split the Red Sea,
Speaker 1: they were able to walk, and the Red Sea fell
Speaker 1: on the Egyptians. So they don't think they can overcome
Speaker 1: this because of the report from the spies, and the
Speaker 1: report was a little over exaggerated, you know, because the
Speaker 1: spies were scared to go in. Caleb was saying, we
Speaker 1: got this as a tripping We can do this and
Speaker 1: we can overcome them. But now you see that the
Speaker 1: people are losing faith. The giants, oh no, oh my,
Speaker 1: you know, we can't do this. We can't handle it.
Speaker 1: You know, they're afraid. So you're seeing them complain, murmur,
Speaker 1: and they they are filled with fear. Who should you fear?
Speaker 1: Only the one that could kill the soul, not the
Speaker 1: one that could kill the body, right, fear the Lord.
Speaker 1: And also God cannot lie, so if he makes a
Speaker 1: promise to you that this is going to be your land,
Speaker 1: then he can't go back on his promise. So what
Speaker 1: they said here is there's a portion here where he
Speaker 1: says they talk about fall by the sword, that our
Speaker 1: wives and children should become victims. So they say that,
Speaker 1: and then later you'll see what God does. Then Moses
Speaker 1: and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly
Speaker 1: of the congregation and children of Israel. But Joshua, the
Speaker 1: son of None Caleb the son of Ja'fa, who were
Speaker 1: among those who had spied out the land, tore their
Speaker 1: and they spoke to all the congregation of the children
Speaker 1: of Israel, saying, the land we passed through to spy
Speaker 1: out is an exceedingly good land. If the Lord delights
Speaker 1: in us, then we will bring us. And then he
Speaker 1: will bring us into this land and give it to us,
Speaker 1: a land which flows with milk and honey. For do
Speaker 1: not rebel against the Lord, nor fear the people of
Speaker 1: the land, for they are for they are our bread.
Speaker 1: Their protection has departed from them, and the Lord is
Speaker 1: with us. Do not fear them. That's kind of interesting
Speaker 1: that portion right there. It says that their protection has
Speaker 1: departed from them. What does that mean? Like? Spiritually? What
Speaker 1: I see there is was there like a little g
Speaker 1: God that was over them. And then once that little
Speaker 1: g God saw that the Lord, the King of Kings,
Speaker 1: the Lord of Lords were there, maybe that maybe that
Speaker 1: little g God or whatever that was over that that
Speaker 1: cana nights departed because God was so close. Because obviously,
Speaker 1: these these fallen angels or whoever's looking over these lands,
Speaker 1: these little g gods, they fear the One true God.
Speaker 1: That's kind of what I'm seeing there now. Am I
Speaker 1: speculating a bit? Yes? But their protection has departed from them,
Speaker 1: and the Lord is with us. That's what I'm kind
Speaker 1: of getting there from a spiritual take. And Joshua and
Speaker 1: Caleb they ain't no joke. They can lead that army man.
Speaker 1: They're they're they're warriors. And all the congregations said to
Speaker 1: stone them with stones. Oh wow. And the glory of
Speaker 1: the Lord appeared in the Tabernacleamedium before all the children
Speaker 1: of Israel. Moses interceds for the people. You see, this
Speaker 1: is like Game of Thrones right here. That's what I'm
Speaker 1: telling you, guys. This is such interesting part. I'm glad
Speaker 1: you guys stuck through this. I hope you guys are
Speaker 1: still here because this part is it's so fascinating to
Speaker 1: me hopefully it's fascinating to you. It's just kind of
Speaker 1: stuff I love. And I was in the army, so
Speaker 1: I'm just like, all right, what's going on here? You know,
Speaker 1: I can imagine this whole thing. And it's crazy that
Speaker 1: they said, all the congregations, all the people said to
Speaker 1: stone them, Joshua and Caleb. They wanted to kill them.
Speaker 1: Moses intercedes for the people. Then the Lord said to Moses,
Speaker 1: how long will these people reject me? How long will
Speaker 1: they not believe me? With all the signs which I
Speaker 1: have performed among them? You see, guys that I'm talking about,
Speaker 1: they're hard in hearts even right now, the Israelites, the Jews,
Speaker 1: whether you believe that they're the Chosen people or not,
Speaker 1: the ones that are in Israel right now, I know
Speaker 1: we have conspiration theories here too. Their hardened hearts. The
Speaker 1: Messiah was right in front of the Pharisees as we're
Speaker 1: reading the New Testament, and they couldn't even see it.
Speaker 1: Hardened heart people, right, this is what God says. I
Speaker 1: will strike them with the pestilence and disinherit them, and
Speaker 1: I will make you a nation greater and mightier than they.
Speaker 1: And Moses said to the Lord. Then the Egyptians will
Speaker 1: hear it, for by your might you brought these people
Speaker 1: up from among them, and they will tell it to
Speaker 1: and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land.
Speaker 1: They have heard that you, Lord are among these people,
Speaker 1: that you, Lord have are seen face to face. And
Speaker 1: your clad stands above your clouds, Your cloud stands above them.
Speaker 1: And you go before in the pillar of cloud by
Speaker 1: the day, in a pillar of fire by night. Now,
Speaker 1: if you kill these people as one man, then the
Speaker 1: nations which have heard of you your fame, will speak saying,
Speaker 1: because the Lord has not able to bring this people
Speaker 1: to the land which he swore to give them. Therefore
Speaker 1: he killed them in the wilderness. And now I pray,
Speaker 1: let the power of my Lord be great, just as
Speaker 1: you have spoken, saying, the Lord is long suffering and
Speaker 1: abundant in mercy forgiving iniquity and transgression. You see he's
Speaker 1: quoting what the Lord said to him. Okay, this is powerful,
Speaker 1: but he by no means clears the guilty. Busying the
Speaker 1: iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third
Speaker 1: and fourth generation. Part of the iniquity of this people.
Speaker 1: I pray, according to the greatness of your mercy, just
Speaker 1: as you have forgiven as people from Egypt even until now.
Speaker 1: So do you see how Moses is speaking to God
Speaker 1: for you said this and you can't go you can't
Speaker 1: go against it. And also he did he wants to
Speaker 1: make sure that he's representing God, and and he knows
Speaker 1: that he's saying that the Egyptians will hear it, and uh,
Speaker 1: and say like you brought these people out of Egypt,
Speaker 1: but you couldn't even protect them, or you couldn't even
Speaker 1: know you end up killing them and and uh, now
Speaker 1: if you kill these people as one man, see that,
Speaker 1: See that's he's God. And then God. And then Moses
Speaker 1: is praying using God's word. And you see, this is
Speaker 1: why it's good to know God's word, because when you
Speaker 1: pray to God, you could you could say, like you know,
Speaker 1: like let's say, if you do a prayer like you know,
Speaker 1: you can use this type of stuff like God, you
Speaker 1: said this when you're in a situation and you said this,
Speaker 1: can you please do the what you said for me?
Speaker 1: You know? And I'm sure God loves it because you're
Speaker 1: using God's word and and uh in your prayers and
Speaker 1: that he could tell that you've been studying. Right then,
Speaker 1: the Lord said, I have pardoned according to your word.
Speaker 1: But truly, as I live, all the earth shall be
Speaker 1: filled with the glory of the Lord. Because all these
Speaker 1: men who have who have seen my glory and the
Speaker 1: signs which I did in Egypt and in the wilderness,
Speaker 1: have put me in the test, to put me to
Speaker 1: the tests now these ten times, and have not heeded
Speaker 1: my voice. They certainly shall not see the Lord of
Speaker 1: which I swore to their fathers, nor shall any of
Speaker 1: those who rejected me see it. But my servant Caleb,
Speaker 1: because he has a different spirit in him, has followed
Speaker 1: me fully. I will bring into the land where he went,
Speaker 1: and his descendants shall inherit it. Now that Malachites and
Speaker 1: the Canaanites dwell in their valley, tomorrow turn and move
Speaker 1: into the wilderness by the way of the Red Sea.
Speaker 1: So see, Caleb has faith. But my servant Caleb, he
Speaker 1: has a different spirit in him, has followed me full.
Speaker 1: I will bring into the land which he went, and
Speaker 1: his descendants shall inherit it. You see this is very interesting. Okay,
Speaker 1: So Haleb has faith. He's not fearing these people. He's
Speaker 1: telling them and we could do this because we have
Speaker 1: God on our sides. He is being faithful and obedient
Speaker 1: to the Lord. And you see how the Lord is
Speaker 1: rewarding him. Sentence on the rebels, and the Lord spoke
Speaker 1: to Moses and Aaron, saying, how long shall I bear
Speaker 1: with this evil congregation who complain against me. I have
Speaker 1: heard the complaints which the children of Israel make against me.
Speaker 1: Say to them, as I live, says the Lord. Just
Speaker 1: as you have spoken in my hearing, so I will
Speaker 1: do to you. The carcasses of you who have complained
Speaker 1: against me shall fall in the wilderness. All of you
Speaker 1: who are numbered according to the entire number from twenty
Speaker 1: years old and above, except for Caleb, the son of
Speaker 1: Jeff and Igh and Joshua, the son of none, you
Speaker 1: shall by no means enter the land which I swore
Speaker 1: I would make you dwelling. But your little ones, whom
Speaker 1: you said would be victims, I will bring in and
Speaker 1: they shall know the land which you have despised. But
Speaker 1: as for you, as for your carcasses shall fall in
Speaker 1: the wilderness, and your sons shall be shepherds in the
Speaker 1: wilderness forty years and bear the brunt of the infidelity
Speaker 1: until the carcasses are consumed in the wilderness. According to
Speaker 1: the number of days in which you spied out the
Speaker 1: land forty days. For each day you shall bear your
Speaker 1: guilt one year, namely forty years, and you shall know
Speaker 1: my rejection. I the Lord, have spoken this. I will
Speaker 1: surely do this to all this evil congregation who are
Speaker 1: gathered together against me in the wilderness. They shall be consumed,
Speaker 1: and they there they shall die. Now the men whom
Speaker 1: Moses sent to spy out the land, who returned and
Speaker 1: made all the congregation complain against him by bringing a
Speaker 1: bad report to the land, those very men who brought
Speaker 1: the evil report about the land died and by the
Speaker 1: plague before the Lord. But Joshua the son of None
Speaker 1: and Caleb, the son of Jafa remained alive. Of the
Speaker 1: men who went to spy out the land. Wow, you
Speaker 1: see what happened to the people like man? They God
Speaker 1: has done all these signs, all these miracles and all
Speaker 1: these things for them, feeding them the manna and taking
Speaker 1: care of them day by day, coming and into the tabernacle,
Speaker 1: coming down on a cloud, doing so many things for them.
Speaker 1: And they're just murmuring and complaining and not trusting the Lord.
Speaker 1: So this is what happens, you know, And to me,
Speaker 1: is it like wow, that's it? Is it a punishment
Speaker 1: that is extreme? Yes, But like I said, it was different,
Speaker 1: Like we believe in the Lord. We haven't seen him
Speaker 1: and he does signs and miracles for us as well,
Speaker 1: but it's not like it's not like instant right now.
Speaker 1: I mean sometimes people are healed instantly. I'm not saying that,
Speaker 1: but it's harder for us to to It's faith cometh
Speaker 1: by hearing and hearing by the word of God. The
Speaker 1: way we build faith is by reading the word of God,
Speaker 1: by praying for faith, and by by having a relationship
Speaker 1: with God. Then back then their faith was built by signs,
Speaker 1: by miracles, and by God coming and speaking to Moses
Speaker 1: face to face. Right. So it's just different, but you
Speaker 1: kind of see where I'm going there, right, So numbers fourteen,
Speaker 1: verse nine A futile in base in attempt. Then Moses
Speaker 1: told these words to all the children of Israel, and
Speaker 1: the people mourned greatly, and they rose early in the
Speaker 1: morning and went up to the top of the mountain, saying,
Speaker 1: here we are, and we will go up to the
Speaker 1: place which the Lord has promised, for we have sinned.
Speaker 1: And Moses said, now, why do you transgress the command
Speaker 1: of the Lord, For this will for this will not succeed.
Speaker 1: Do not go up lest you be defeated by your enemies.
Speaker 1: For the Lord is not among you. For the Amlakites
Speaker 1: and the Canaites are there before you, and you shall
Speaker 1: fall by the sword because you have turned away from
Speaker 1: the Lord. The Lord will not be with you. But
Speaker 1: they presumed to go up to the mountaintop, so they
Speaker 1: disobeyed the Lord. You know, if they would have waited
Speaker 1: on the Lord, prayed, prayed up, listen to Moses, then
Speaker 1: they would have been good. But it seems like they
Speaker 1: were like, no, we're going to go up there. Anyways,
Speaker 1: they disill bade, but they presumed up to the mountaintop.
Speaker 1: We're at numbers fourteen forty four. Nevertheless, neither the Ark
Speaker 1: of the Covenant or the Lord nor Moses departed from
Speaker 1: the camp. Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who dwelt
Speaker 1: in the mountain came down, attacked them and drove them
Speaker 1: back as far as Hormah. So the battle happened, and
Speaker 1: they weren't ready. They didn't even have the Lord with
Speaker 1: them nor the tabernacle. So you see they weren't listening
Speaker 1: numbers fourteen three, helld on really quick. Oh yeah, it's
Speaker 1: just telling you that they're going to die by the sword.
Speaker 1: How long is numbers fifteen? Okay, we can just finish
Speaker 1: it with numbers fifteen. There's not really much for me
Speaker 1: to This is kind of when you get to numbers fifteen,
Speaker 1: it's kind of like kind of like going back to
Speaker 1: the Book of Leviticus. It's explaining laws of grain, drink offerings,
Speaker 1: explaining the law's intentional sin. So we'll just finish it
Speaker 1: off with this. I'm just gonna read through and then
Speaker 1: kind of top it off with fifteen, and we'll start
Speaker 1: at number sixteen next week. Praise God, we're getting through
Speaker 1: the book of numbers. Let's go. That was a really
Speaker 1: like so far, I've really enjoyed what I was teaching
Speaker 1: here today. I enjoyed it. You see, I'm really spunky
Speaker 1: in the morning. I think I'm a morning person. I
Speaker 1: think I like to do these shows in the morning,
Speaker 1: but sometimes, you know, time permits where I have to
Speaker 1: do it at night. But let's go ahead and check
Speaker 1: this out. This is numbers fifteen verse one, And the
Speaker 1: Lord spoke to Moses, saying, speak to the children of Isuel,
Speaker 1: and say to them, when you have come into the land,
Speaker 1: you are to inhabit which I am giving to you,
Speaker 1: and you make an offering by a fire to the Lord,
Speaker 1: a burn offering, or a sacrifice of phil a vow,
Speaker 1: or a free will offering, or in your appointed feast,
Speaker 1: to make a sweet aroma to the Lord from the
Speaker 1: herd of flock. So God is basically telling them, you know,
Speaker 1: once you do and inherit this land that I've been
Speaker 1: trying to get give you. He wants to remind them
Speaker 1: of what they need to do. Right. Then, he who
Speaker 1: presents his offering to the Lord shall bring a grain
Speaker 1: offering of one tenth of an ephah of fine flower,
Speaker 1: mixed with one fourth of a hein of oil, and
Speaker 1: one fourth of a hen of wine. As a drink offering,
Speaker 1: you shall prepare with the burnt offering and the sacrifice
Speaker 1: of each lamb or for a ram is, you shall
Speaker 1: prepare a grain offering of two tints of an ephah
Speaker 1: of fine flour, mix with one third of a hen
Speaker 1: of oil, And as a drink offering you shall offer
Speaker 1: one third of a hen of wine as a sweet
Speaker 1: arama to the Lord. And when you prepare a young
Speaker 1: bull as a burnt offering, or as a sacrifice of
Speaker 1: phil a vale, or a peace offering to the Lord,
Speaker 1: then shall he offered with a young bull a grain
Speaker 1: offering of three tenths of an epha, a fine flower
Speaker 1: mixed with half of ahin of oil. And you shall
Speaker 1: bring as a drink offering half a hen of wine,
Speaker 1: as the offering made by fire, a sweet arama to
Speaker 1: the Lord. Numbers fifteen, verse eleven. Thus this shall be
Speaker 1: done for each young bull, for each ram, for each
Speaker 1: lamb or young goat, according to the number that you prepare.
Speaker 1: So you shall do with everyone according to their number.
Speaker 1: And all who are native born shall do these things
Speaker 1: in this manner, in presenting an offering made by fire
Speaker 1: a sweet a roma to the Lord. And if a
Speaker 1: stranger dwells with you, or whoever is among you throughout
Speaker 1: your generations, that would present an offering made by fire
Speaker 1: a sweeter roman to the Lord, just as you do,
Speaker 1: or shall so shall he do. So, you know, he's
Speaker 1: got to saying that if someone comes in as a
Speaker 1: stranger and they want to do this as well, then
Speaker 1: then they can do it. Gentiles can convert and can
Speaker 1: believe in Yahweh, and he's saying that it's okay for
Speaker 1: them to do it as well. Numbers fifteen verse fifteen.
Speaker 1: One ordinance shall be for you of the Aroma to
Speaker 1: the Lord. Just as you do, so shall he do.
Speaker 1: One ordinance shall be with you. Shall be for you
Speaker 1: of the Assembly, and for the stranger who dwells with you,
Speaker 1: in ordinance forever throughout your generations, as you are, so
Speaker 1: shall the stranger be before the Lord. One law and
Speaker 1: one customs shall be for you and for the stranger
Speaker 1: who dwells with you. And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
Speaker 1: speak to the children of Israel, and say to them,
Speaker 1: when you come into the land which I bring you,
Speaker 1: then it will be when you eat of the bread
Speaker 1: of the land. Then you shall offer up a heave
Speaker 1: offering to the Lord. You shall offer up a cake
Speaker 1: of the first of your ground meal as a heave offering,
Speaker 1: as a heave offering to the threshing floor. So shall
Speaker 1: your offer it up, And this is the numbers fifteen
Speaker 1: twenty one of the first of your ground meal, you
Speaker 1: shall give it to the Lord a heave offering throughout
Speaker 1: your generations. Okay, so now we have the laws concerning
Speaker 1: unintentioned sin. If you sin unintentionally, I do not deserve
Speaker 1: all these commandments which the Lord has spoken to Moses,
Speaker 1: all that the Lord has commanded you by the hand
Speaker 1: of Moses for the day of the Lord gave commandment,
Speaker 1: and onward throughout your generations. Then it will be, if
Speaker 1: it is unintentionally committed without the knowledge of the congregation,
Speaker 1: that the whole congregation shall offer one young bull as
Speaker 1: a burnt offering, as a sweet aroma to the Lord,
Speaker 1: which is a great offering, and his drink offering according
Speaker 1: to the ordinance, and one kid of the goats as
Speaker 1: a sin offering for the priests shall make an atonement
Speaker 1: for the whole congregation of the children of Israel, and
Speaker 1: it shall be forgiven them, for it is unintentional, that
Speaker 1: they shall bring their offering and offering made by fire
Speaker 1: to the Lord, and their sin offering before the Lord.
Speaker 1: Of the unintended sin, it shall be forgiven the whole
Speaker 1: congregation of the children of Israel and the stranger who
Speaker 1: dwells among you, because of the people did it unintentionally,
Speaker 1: because all the people did it unintentionally. And if a
Speaker 1: person sins unintentionally, then he shall bring a female goat
Speaker 1: in its first year as a sin offering. So the
Speaker 1: priest shall make atonement for the person who sins unintentionally.
Speaker 1: When he sins unintentionally before the Lord, to make atonement
Speaker 1: for him, it shall be forgiven him. You shall have
Speaker 1: one law for him who sins unintentionally, for him who
Speaker 1: is native born among the children of Israel, and for
Speaker 1: the stranger who dwells among them, law concerning presumptuous sin.
Speaker 1: But the person who does anything presumptuously, whether he is
Speaker 1: native born or stranger, that one brings reapproach to the Lord,
Speaker 1: he shall be cut off from among his people. Because
Speaker 1: he has despised the word of the Lord and has
Speaker 1: broken his commandment. That person shall be completely cut off.
Speaker 1: His guilt shall be upon him. Hold on, let's look
Speaker 1: that up real quick numbers numbers thirty numbers, fifteen verse
Speaker 1: thirty numbers fifteen verse thirty. But the soul that do
Speaker 1: with ought presumptuously, Let's see what that. I would say
Speaker 1: that that's portion site monument, part fictional, part time. Repetition
Speaker 1: is one of the words. It's hand or strength. Now
Speaker 1: the children of Israel and the wilderness they found that.
Speaker 1: Let me see. But the person does who does anything presumptuously,
Speaker 1: whether he is native born, brings reapproach to the lord tension.
Speaker 1: Let me see, maybe it's repetition or time. It says
Speaker 1: hand hand a man's strength power put forth his hand
Speaker 1: to also take the trailer. Yeah, I don't know how
Speaker 1: to interpret that word presumptuously. It's saying like, let me
Speaker 1: see what is is that what it says in here too?
Speaker 1: And it because he despised the word, the Lord has
Speaker 1: broken his commandment. Yeah. The but the soul that Doe
Speaker 1: ought presumptuous, whether he be born in the land or
Speaker 1: a stranger. Let's see what reapproacheth to me? To revile men?
Speaker 1: Blasphemy God? Oh okay. So so if you sin presumptuously,
Speaker 1: whether it's a native born or stranger, is one that
Speaker 1: brings reapproach to the Lord or blasphemy? Uh to God? Okay,
Speaker 1: So it's like a it's like a bigger Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: like repetitive sins. I guess I don't know how to
Speaker 1: how to interpret presumptuously because it says time or repetitive
Speaker 1: is one of the or. It says hand or strength,
Speaker 1: so it's it's hard to It says bring a reapproach
Speaker 1: to the Lord, which means blasphemy to God. He shall
Speaker 1: be cut off among his people. So that makes sense.
Speaker 1: If you blasphem me God, then yeah, all right, let's
Speaker 1: let's continue. I don't know if that mas repetitive sins
Speaker 1: or what. Let's continue numbers fifteen, verse thirty two. Maybe
Speaker 1: I can look at let me let me see, let
Speaker 1: me just look it up. I want to see what
Speaker 1: that is. Okay, we have another five or ten minutes,
Speaker 1: so what is Okay, let's see what that means. In
Speaker 1: religious context, of presumptuous sin is a deliberate and wilful
Speaker 1: sin committed with full knowledge of its wrongness, showing disregard
Speaker 1: for God's law or authority, and often implying a challenge
Speaker 1: to God's mercy. Oh okay, So that's its deliberate or
Speaker 1: willful sins against God wow, knowing of it's with full
Speaker 1: knowledge of its wrongness, showing the disregard of God's law authority. Okay,
Speaker 1: oh okay. So an example of a presumptuous sin is
Speaker 1: King David action to be sent for Bathsheba and arrange
Speaker 1: for her husband Uriah to be killed. There are sins
Speaker 1: committed with full knowledge of their wrongfulness and without repentance.
Speaker 1: Oh man, this is probably interesting. I mean, this is
Speaker 1: very important for us to know. Maybe that's why God
Speaker 1: is having me look this up. Presumptuous sin is often
Speaker 1: described as sinning in the name of the Lord or
Speaker 1: acting without authority. It's a transgression that arises from pride, arrogance,
Speaker 1: or a belief that one is above or beyond God's
Speaker 1: commands or expectations. Wo dangerous in a religious contest. Sperential's
Speaker 1: sin is can have severe consequences, potentially leading to spiritual
Speaker 1: separation from God or punishment, depending on the religious belief system.
Speaker 1: Contrasts with other sins. In contrast to unintentional or ignorant sin,
Speaker 1: which may be forgiven throughout repentance and sacrifice, presumptuous sin,
Speaker 1: by their nature, implied a rejection of God and his authority,
Speaker 1: making them less successible to forgiveness. I see, I see.
Speaker 1: It's intentional, deliberate sin. Okay, penalty for violating the Sabbath. Now,
Speaker 1: while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they
Speaker 1: found a man gathered gathering sticks on the Sabbath day,
Speaker 1: and those who found them gathering sticks brought him to
Speaker 1: Moses and Aaron and all the congregation. They put him
Speaker 1: under guard because it had not been explained what should
Speaker 1: be done to him. And the Lord said to Moses,
Speaker 1: the man must surely be put to death, with all
Speaker 1: the congregations shall stone him with stones outside the camp. So,
Speaker 1: as the Lord commanded Moses, all the congregation brought him
Speaker 1: outside the camp and stoned him with the stones, and
Speaker 1: he had died. So you're violating the Sabbath, and God
Speaker 1: is dwelling among you, and God is you know it's
Speaker 1: you're violating one of God's commandments here right that you're
Speaker 1: basically sinning presumptuous by violating the Sabbath. Tassels on garments. Again,
Speaker 1: the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, speak to the children
Speaker 1: of Israel. Tell them to make tassels on the corners
Speaker 1: of their garments. Throughout the generations that put a blue
Speaker 1: thread in the tassels of corners, and you shall have
Speaker 1: the tassels that you make. May look upon it and
Speaker 1: remember all the commandments of the Lord, and do them.
Speaker 1: That you may not follow the harle tree, to which
Speaker 1: your own heart and your own eyes are inclined, and
Speaker 1: that you may remember to all the commandments and be
Speaker 1: holy for the Lord. I am the Lord, your God,
Speaker 1: who brought you out of the land of Egypt to
Speaker 1: be your God. I am the Lord, your God. So
Speaker 1: we finished numbers twelve. So wow, we went nine all
Speaker 1: the way through fifteen. And literally it's it's crazy because
Speaker 1: when I'm watching these other pastors teach, sorry, I stretch.
Speaker 1: When I listen to these pastors teach, were literally like
Speaker 1: on the same pace as the their sermons. So this
Speaker 1: is perfect. So we'll be in number sixteen next week.
Speaker 1: We'll stop the screen share if you were watching on
Speaker 1: Patreon and on the video. Yeah, thank you so much
Speaker 1: for joining me. This is this is very the meat
Speaker 1: and potatoes. I loved it. I like it was it was.
Speaker 1: I like that numbers twelve, I like numbers twelve, thirteen.
Speaker 1: Those are very interesting parts and portions of the Bible,
Speaker 1: you know, and I like it. It's I like the
Speaker 1: drama and all the other stuff that's happening as well.
Speaker 1: It kind of we can learn lessons from these, you know,
Speaker 1: spiritual lessons of of what's of how the people handled stuff,
Speaker 1: you know, like when they were complaining and they're murmuring,
Speaker 1: and and we need to understand that we need to
Speaker 1: appreciate what God is giving us. And you saw that
Speaker 1: part where the guy disobeyed the Sabbath and he got
Speaker 1: in God to destone him. So just a lot of
Speaker 1: things that we need to understand. The presumptuous sin, we
Speaker 1: now we know what that is. That's man, that's hard,
Speaker 1: you know, having knowledge. When we read the Bible, we
Speaker 1: are now held accountable for what we know. So when
Speaker 1: we sin against God, we transgress against God. Right, we
Speaker 1: know that it's wrong. So all right, so what we'll do,
Speaker 1: like we always do, We're gonna end this in prayer.
Speaker 1: If you made it to this point, to the end
Speaker 1: of this show, comment on Spotify or you could send

Speaker 1: things that we're reading that we're not accustomed to. In
Speaker 1: the Book of Numbers, like, for example, the people that
Speaker 1: are you know, the gentleman right there and numbers fifteen
Speaker 1: that disobeyed the Sabbath. You had them stoned. And help
Speaker 1: us to understand these certain things, because what I'm gathering,
Speaker 1: Lord is that you were there in their presence and
Speaker 1: you're doing these signs, these miracles, and they should understand
Speaker 1: more than us, even though we do have the Bible.
Speaker 1: But now we're held accountable Lord because you're teaching us
