Num. 14:6–9 Joshua and Caleb rightly call the reaction to the spies’ report a rebellion against the Lord.
Num. 14:6 tore their clothes. A typical sign of grief (Gen. 37:29, 34).
Num. 14:8 If the Lord delights in us, he will bring us into this land and give it to us. God’s blessing on Joshua and Caleb (see vv. 30; 38; 26:65) shows his approval of their faith.
Num. 14:11–12 How long will this people despise me? The Lord shows the severity of his anger by threatening to destroy the nation and start all over again with Moses alone. He made a similar threat in Ex. 32:10.
Num. 14:13–19 Moses prays here, as he did after the golden calf incident (Exodus 32).
Num. 14:20–35 God declares, I have pardoned, according to your word. That is, he will not destroy Israel immediately; however, they cannot go ahead with their planned entry into Canaan.
Num. 14:21 all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the Lord. God’s purposes will not be defeated by human failure. (See notes on Ps. 72:18–20; Isa. 6:3.)
Num. 14:29 All those twenty years old and upward will die in the wilderness. They were the ones who had been enrolled to fight (1:3) but in this case had refused to do so.
Num. 14:36–38 God forgives sin, but sin still has consequences. Israel would remain the people of God, but the generation that rebelled against him would die in the wilderness.
Num. 14:36–37 died by plague. God judged the 10 faithless spies because their bad report had made all the congregation grumble against Moses.
Num. 14:41–45 The Israelites disobeyed Moses’ command and presumed to decide their own course of action. This brought God’s judgment. Hormah (meaning “Destruction”; see 21:3) is a village on the southern border of Canaan (Josh. 15:30).
