Numbers 26:64 Summary
[This verse tells us that when Moses and Eleazar counted the Israelites, none of the people who were counted a long time before in the Wilderness of Sinai were still alive, except for a few like Caleb and Joshua. This happened because God said they would die in the wilderness as a judgment for their disobedience, as we see in Numbers 14:20-35. It reminds us that God is faithful to His promises, both to bless and to judge, as seen in Deuteronomy 28:1-68. We can learn from the Israelites' mistakes and strive to obey God's commands, knowing that He is our loving Father who desires our good, as taught in Romans 8:28 and Jeremiah 29:11.]
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the significance of the Wilderness of Sinai in this verse?
The Wilderness of Sinai is where the Israelites were counted by Moses and Aaron the priest, as recorded in Numbers 1:1-4, but as Numbers 26:64 notes, none of those counted then were still alive, except for a few like Caleb and Joshua, because of the Lord's judgment as seen in Numbers 14:20-35.
Why were the Levites not included in the count of the other Israelites?
The Levites were not included in the count because they were given no inheritance among the Israelites, as stated in Numbers 26:62, and as the Lord instructed in Numbers 18:21-24 and Deuteronomy 10:9.
What happened to the people who were counted by Moses and Aaron the priest in the Wilderness of Sinai?
According to Numbers 26:64 and Numbers 26:65, all the people who were counted by Moses and Aaron the priest in the Wilderness of Sinai had died, as the Lord had told them they would, in Numbers 14:20-35, except for a few like Caleb and Joshua.
What can we learn from the fact that none of the original Israelites counted in the Wilderness of Sinai were still alive?
