Death Sentence on the Rebels

26 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying,
27 a“How long shall I bear with this evil congregation who complain against Me? bI have heard the complaints which the children of Israel make against Me.  
28 aSay to them, ‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘just as you have spoken in My hearing, so I will do to you:  
29 The carcasses of you who have complained against Me shall fall in this wilderness, aall of you who were numbered, according to your entire number, from twenty years old and above.  
30 aExcept for Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun, you shall by no means enter the land which I1 swore I would make you dwell in.  
31 aBut your little ones, whom you said would be victims, I will bring in, and they shall1 know the land which byou have despised.

Numbers

NUMBERS. This book is so called because it contains an account of the enumeration and arrangement of the Israelites. The early part of it, from the first through the tenth chapters, appears to be a supplement to Leviticus, being occupied with relating the appointment of the Levites to the sacred offices. The journal of the march through the wilderness is then given as far as Numbers 21:20; after which the early incidents of the invasion are narrated. One direct quotation only from this book (Numbers 16:5) is made in the New Testament (II Timothy 2:19); but indirect references to it by the later sacred writers are very numerous.
