“You Caused the Death of the Lord’s People”
“You Caused the Death of the Lord’s People”
Blessings folk!
The ground had swallowed the leaders of rebellion.
Fire from heaven consumed those joining with the leaders.
The “fire-proven” censers were to be hammered into sheets to cover the altar…as a reminder.
A reminder to the people.
Do not rebel.
The people fled running when they saw the judgment of God.
Perhaps they now believed God?
Perhaps they learned?
Yeah…sure…the next verse…
Num 16:41
But on the next day all the congregation of the sons of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron, saying, “You are the ones who have caused the death of the LORD’S people.”
The next day.
Not a few days later.
Not weeks later.
THE NEXT DAY!
The next day they grumbled.
Against Moses and Aaron.
They literally blamed Moses and Aaron for the death “of the LORD’S people”.
Think about that.
Did they think that Moses/Aaron opened the ground?
Did they think that Moses/Aaron brought down fire from heaven?
Probably not.
What they did think is that Moses/Aaron were the ones who caused God to respond in these ways.
They literally faulted them with causing God to kill their wonderful leaders.
Nothing has changed.
Delusion of the masses.
