Israel had been liberated from Egypt, ratified the covenant at Sinai, and constructed the tabernacle. They had everything they needed to enter the land they had been promised. And then, standing at its border, they refused to go in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result was forty years of wandering. Numbers is the honest record of that failure: the complaints, the rebellions, the longing for Egypt, the mutinies against Moses. It is also the record of a divine faithfulness that the failure did not terminate - the manna that arrived every morning, the cloud that kept moving, and the promise that was still standing when a new generation rose to receive what their parents had refused.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNumbers Explained walks readers through the historical setting, narrative structure, and major themes of the book - from the wilderness terrain and the two census counts to the Balaam oracles and the daughters of Zelophehad. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart of The Bible for Modern Life Series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Samuel Whitaker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1972885057\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781972885055\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ascent Press Co.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/07\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.29d","brand":"Samuel Whitaker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49148513616127,"sku":"9781972885055","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/numbers-explained-samuel-whitaker-9781972885055","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
