The books of Shemot (Exodus) and Bamidbar (Numbers) explore Israel’s journey from slavery in Egypt to the Promised Land. Together with the recap for the second generation (Devarim/Deuteronomy), these books highlight the importance of trusting God’s provision, as seen in the examples of the Israelites in the wilderness (Numbers 11) and the lessons from Korah (Numbers 16-17) and Balaam (Numbers 22-25, 31).
This study on the Torah readings מַּטּוֹת Mattot and מַסְעֵי Massei (Numbers 30-36) warns against the dangers of deception, coveting, and cultural influences that can lead believers astray, drawing parallels to modern issues like critical gender theory. It emphasizes the need to recognize spiritual enemies, treat fellow believers with love (James 4), and remain faithful to God’s calling as a “kingdom of priests and a holy nation” (Exodus 19:3-6; 1Peter 2: Revelation 1, 5, 20).
Ultimately, believers must examine the source of their wisdom and direction, and to respond with courage and conviction when faced with moral decay in society.
