Israel’s Penalty

³³who went before you on the journey, in the fire by night and in the cloud by day, to seek out a place for you to camp and to show you the road to travel.³⁴When the LORD heard your words, He grew angry and swore an oath, saying,³⁵“Not one of the men of this evil generation shall see the good land I swore to give your fathers,

Summary

In Deuteronomy 1:34, Moses recounts the Israelites' journey through the wilderness and their refusal to trust God's promise to give them the land. This verse highlights the consequences of their lack of faith, as God declares that none of the adults who doubted Him would enter the promised land except for Caleb and Joshua. It serves as a sobering reminder of the importance of faith and obedience in God's plan, showing that doubt and disobedience can lead to missed blessings and opportunities. Ultimately, Deuteronomy 1:34 underscores the significance of trusting in God's faithfulness and following His guidance wholeheartedly.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

the Lord heard the voice of your words, and was wroth--In consequence of this aggravated offense (unbelief followed by open rebellion), the Israelites were doomed, in the righteous judgment of God, to a life of wandering in that dreary wilderness till the whole adult generation had disappeared by death. The only exceptions mentioned are Caleb and Joshua, who was to be Moses' successor.
