References for Num 33:16 —  1   2   3   4 

Num. 33:1–56 Most of Numbers is said to have been given to Moses by God (“The Lord spoke to Moses”; 1:1; 2:1; 3:5; etc.), but only ch. 33, which lists Israel’s campsites on the journey to Canaan, is said to have been recorded by Moses (v. 2). The chapter can be seen as Moses’ testimony of what God has done for Israel during his lifetime.

Num. 33:1–4 These verses summarize Exodus 2–12. On their gods also the Lord executed judgments. The ten plagues and the defeat of Pharaoh, who was regarded as a god, demonstrated that the Lord is more powerful than all the gods of Egypt. As the Lord had treated the Egyptian gods, so Israel was to wipe out the worship of rival deities in Canaan (Num. 33:52).

Num. 33:5–15 These verses summarize Ex. 12:37–19:2.

Num. 33:16–17 These verses summarize Israel’s journeys in chs. 10–11.

Num. 33:18–29 This part of the wilderness journey is mentioned only here.

Num. 33:30–34 This part of the wilderness journey is probably mentioned also in Deut. 10:6–7, if the similar place names refer to the same places.

Num. 33:35 Ezion-geber is probably at the northern end of the Gulf of Aqaba.

Num. 33:37–49 These verses summarize chs. 20–25.

Num. 33:50–56 Deuteronomy and Judges often repeat this stern warning against behaving like ungodly people and mixing their religions with Israelite worship. Israel will go into exile if she compromises her faith in God: I will do to you as I thought to do to them.
