Jun 16, 2013 · Verse 15 shows us that believing in Him is equivalent to looking at the lifted up snake in the wilderness. The best translation has “believes” without an object and “in Him” is connected with eternal life. But in verse 16 John clarifies that our faith is to be in Jesus, the Son of God.

God (Yahweh)—the creator of heaven and earth, who chose Israel as his special nation and dwells in their midst. Moses—the prophet and human leader of the nation of Israel. He’s the chief spokesperson for God to his people, and vice versa. Aaron—Moses’ brother, and the high priest of Israel. Eleazar—Aaron’s son, who takes his place when Aaron dies. ...
There are a lot of weird happenings along the Israelites’ journey—including that episode with the talking donkey. But the main focus of the book is Israel’s repeated rebellion and God’s repeated mercy and discipline on his people. If we had to choose just one verse to sum up the key themes in this book, it would be Numbers 14:11:
Numbers isn’t a standalone book. Numbers is the fourth book of the Pentateuch—Israel’s five-movement origin story. Reading Numbers without at least familiarizing yourself with the previous three books (Genesis, Exodus, and Leviticus) is kind of like tuning in to the fourth season of a TV series—you’re not going to know what’s going on if you didn’t...
Act 1: Preparing to leave Sinai
(Nu 1:1–10:10) The book opens with Moses taking a census of the people in Israel. (That’s why we call the book “Numbers.”) Israel has been camping in the wilderness for a year now, and it’s time for them to be on the move. Moses gives the nation orders for how the twelve tribes should position themselves as they camp and as they move through the wilderness—with the tabernacle of God being at the center of the camp. A good deal of new laws, rituals, and sacrifices that take place here.
Interlude: From Sinai to Paran
(Nu 10:11–12:16) This isn’t a very pleasant journey. The people complain against God and Moses—and God sends fire and a plague. Moses’ brother Aaron and sister Miriam speak out against him, and Miriam is temporarily afflicted with leprosy. It’s really not great.
Act 2: Israel Rejects the Land
(Nu 13–19) When the Israelites get about halfway to Canaan, Moses sends twelve spies into the land to scope it out. Two of them, Joshua and Caleb, tell the people that the land is good, and God will give it to them. The other 10, however, have no confidence that they can take the land—they believe the forces protecting Canaan outmatch Israel. The nation isn’t very happy to hear this, so they turn on Moses. They refuse to take the land, and so God says, “OK. You will die in the wilderness and...
Numbers shows us how a holy God dwells with His people. Israel rebels against God, and even Moses disobeys Him, but God is faithful to bring this nation to the promised land. God keeps His promises: the promises He made to Abraham in Genesisalong with His promises to bless and punish Israel. Although few of us are in the nation of Israel’s position...
From the Jews’ mistakes, God reveals lessons for you to live while on your journey through the wilderness of life. These include: (1) serving God, (2) trusting Him, (3) leaving your life of the flesh behind, (4) growing spiritually from your trial, (5) seeking His mercy and grace, (6) letting Him guide you, and (7) faith.
