When They Heard, They Rebelled
“For who when they heard, rebelled? Indeed, did not all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?"
Hebrew 3:16
"And with whom was He angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?"
Hebrew 3:17
verse 16: "For who when they heard, rebelled? In deed, did not all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?"

There are 6 questions that are used in verses 16-18 that bring the truth to the surface as to why there was a problem in Israel with regard to entering into the land God had promised.

Question 1: "For who when they heard, rebelled?" Question 2: "Indeed, did not all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?"

1 Corinthians 10:1-5: "For I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea; and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea; and all ate the same spiritual food; and all drank the same spiritual drink, for they were drinking from a spiritual rock which followed them; and the rock was Christ. Nevertheless, with most of them God was not well-pleased; for they were laid low in the wilderness" (NASB).

Verse 17: "And with whom was He angry for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?"

Question 3: "And with whom was He angry for forty years?" It was that generation that turned back from Kadesh-Barnea and refused to trust God and go into the land. He answers his own question with yet another question.

Question 4: "Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness?"

Corpses strewn in the wilderness, evidences of divine disqualification. The landscape of the scriptures is scattered with the corpses of those who did not finish well.

A little sin will add to your trouble, subtract from your energy, multiply your difficulties, and divide our relationships.

Join me in singing that wonderful hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah":
Guide me, O Thou great Jehovah,
Pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but Thou are mighty,
Hold me with Thy pow'rful hand.
Bread of heaven, Bread of heaven,
Feed me till I want no more;
Feed me till I want no more.

Open now the crystal fountain,
Whence the healing stream doth flow;
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through.
Strong Deliv'rer, strong Deliv'rer,
Be Thou still my strength and shield;
Be Thou still my strength and shield.
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
