Malcom: Welcome to Immerse: the
Daily Bible reading Experience.
Day 100 and 40.
in the first month of the year, the
whole community of Israel arrived in the
wilderness of Zenin and camped at Kaddish.
While they were there,
Miriam died and was buried.
There was no water for the people
to drink at that place, so they
rebelled against Moses and Aaron.
The people blamed Moses and said,
if only we had died in the Lord's
presence with our brothers.
Why have you brought the congregation of
the Lord's people into this wilderness
to die along with all our livestock?
Why did you make us leave Egypt and
bring us here to this terrible place?
This land has no grain, no figs,
no grapes, no pomegranates,
and no water to drink.
Moses and Aaron turned away
from the people and went to the
entrance of the tabernacle where
they fell face down on the ground.
Then the glorious presence of the
Lord appeared to them, and the Lord
said to Moses, you and Aaron must
take the staff and assemble the
entire community as the people watch.
Speak to the rock over there
and it will pour out its water.
You will provide enough water
from the rock to satisfy the whole
community and their livestock.
So Moses did as he was told.
He took the staff from the place
where it was kept before the Lord.
Then he and Aaron summon the people
to come and gather at the rock.
Listen you rebels.
He shouted, must we bring
you water from this rock?
Then Moses raised his hand and
struck the rock twice with the staff.
And water gushed out so the
entire community and their
livestock drank their fill.
But the Lord said to Moses and Aaron,
because you did not trust me enough
to demonstrate my holiness to the
people of Israel, you will not lead
them into the land I am giving them.
This place was known as the waters
of Marba, which means arguing
because they're the people of Israel,
argued with the Lord, and there he
demonstrated his holiness among them.
While Moses was at Kadish, he sent
ambassadors to the King of Edam
with this message, this is what your
relatives, the people of Israel say,
you know, all the hardships we have
been through, our ancestors went down
to Egypt and we live there a long
time and we, and our ancestors were
brutally mistreated by the Egyptians.
But when we cried out to the
Lord, he heard us and sent an
angel who brought us out of Egypt.
Now we are camped at Kadish, a
town on the border of your land.
Please let us travel through your land.
We will be careful not to go
through your fields and vineyards.
We won't even drink water from your wells.
We will stay on the King's road
and never leave it until we have
passed through your territory.
But the King of Edam said, stay out of
my land, or I will meet you with an army.
The Israelites answered.
We will stay on the main road.
If our livestock drink your
water, we will pay for it.
Just let us pass through your country.
That's all we ask.
But the King of Edam replied, stay out.
You may not pass through our land.
With that, he mobilized his army and
marched out against them with an imposing
force because Edam refused to allow
Israel to pass through their country.
Israel was forced to turn around.
The whole community of Israel left
Kadish and arrived at Mount Whore there
on the border of the land of Edam.
The Lord said to Moses and Aaron,
the time has come for Aaron to
join his ancestors in death.
He will not enter the land.
I am giving the people of
Israel because the two of you
rebelled against my instructions
concerning the water at Marba.
Now take Aaron and his
son Ezer up Mount whore.
There you will remove Aaron's priestly
garments and put them on LEAs or his son.
Aaron will die there
and join his ancestors.
So Moses did as the Lord commanded.
The three of them went up Mount
whore together as the whole community
watched at the summit, Moses removed
the priestly garments from Aaron
and put them on Zer, Aaron's son.
Then Aaron died there on top
of the mountain, and Moses
and Azer went back down.
When the people realized that Aaron had
died, all Israel mourned for him 30 days.
The Canaanite King of Arad, who lived in
the Negev, heard that the Israelites were
approaching on the road through Ather him.
So he attacked the Israelites and
took some of them as prisoners.
Then the people of Israel
made this vow to the Lord.
If you will hand these people
over to us, we will completely
destroy all their towns.
The Lord heard the Israelites request and
gave them victory over the Canaanites.
The Israelites completely destroyed
them and their towns, and the
place has been called Homa.
Ever since
then.
The people of Israel set out from
Mount whore taking the road to the
Red Sea to go around the land of Edem.
But the people grew impatient with
the long journey and they began
to speak against God and Moses.
Why have you brought us out of
Egypt to die here in the wilderness?
They complained there is nothing
to eat here and nothing to drink,
and we hate this horrible manna.
So the Lord sent poisonous snakes among
the people and many were bitten and died.
Then the people came to Moses and
cried out, we have sinned by speaking
against the Lord and against you.
Pray that the Lord will
take away the snakes.
So Moses prayed for the people.
Then the Lord told him, make a replica of
a poisonous snake and attach it to a pole.
All who are bitten will live
if they simply look at it.
So Moses made a snake out of
bronze and attached it to a pole.
Then anyone who was bitten
by a snake could look at the
bronze snake and be healed.
The Israelites traveled next
to OBO and camped there.
Then they went on to AA aberam in the
wilderness on the eastern border of Moab.
From there, they traveled to the
valley of Zeroed Brook and set up camp.
Then they moved out and camped on the far
side of the Arnon River in the wilderness
adjacent to the territory of the Amorites.
The Arnon is the boundary line
between the Moabites and the Amorites.
For this reason, the book of the
Wars of the Lord speaks of the town
of Weeb in the area of sfa and the
ravines of the Arnon River and the
ravines that extend as far as the
settlement of R on the border of Moab.
From there, the Israelites traveled
to beer, which is the well, where the
Lord said to Moses, assemble the people
and I will give them water there.
The Israelites sang this song, spring Up.
Oh well, yes.
Sing its praises.
Sing of this well, which princes
Doug, which great leaders hollowed
out with their sectors and staffs.
Then the Israelites left the wilderness
and proceeded on through Matina.
Neha and Bemo.
After that, they went to the
valley in Moab, where Pisca
Peak overlooks the wasteland.
The Israelites sent ambassadors
to King Shan of the Amorites.
With this message, let us
travel through your land.
We will be careful not to go
through your fields and vineyards.
We won't even drink water from your wells.
We will stay on the King's Road until
we have passed through your territory.
But King Shan refused to let
them cross his territory.
Instead, he mobilized his entire army
and attacked Israel in the wilderness,
engaging them in battle at Jha.
But the Israelites slaughtered them with
their swords and occupied their land
from the Arnon River to the Jabbok River.
They went only as far as the
Ammonite border because the boundary
of the Ammonites was fortified.
So Israel captured all the towns
of the Amorites and settled in
them, including the city of Hessman
and its surrounding villages.
Hessman had been the capital
of King Shan of the Amorites.
He had defeated a former Moabite
King and seized all his land
as far as the Arnon River.
Therefore, the ancient
poets wrote this about him.
Come to Hessman and let it be rebuilt.
Let the city of Shan be restored.
A fire flamed forth from Hessman
ablaze from the city of Shan.
It burned the city of R in Moab, it
destroyed the rulers of the Arnon Heights.
What sorrow awaits you O people of Moab.
You are finished a worshipers of mosh.
Kiosh has left his sons as
refugees, his daughters as
captives of Shan, the Amorite King.
We have utterly destroyed
them from Hassin to Dban.
We have completely wiped them
out as far away as Nofa and MEbA.
So the people of Israel occupied
the territory of the Amorites.
After Moses sent men to explore
the Jayer area, they captured all
the towns in the region and drove
out the Amorites who lived there.
Then they turned and marched up the road
to Bayesian, but King OG of Bayesian and
all his people a attacked them at EDRi.
I, the Lord, said to Moses, do
not be afraid of him for I have
handed him over to you along
with all his people and his land.
Do the same to him as you did to
King Shan of the Amorites who ruled
in Hessman and Israel killed King
og his sons and all his subjects.
Not a single survivor remained
then Israel occupied their land.
