And like I said, I really appreciate

you guys. We're getting like eight to eleven comments each show and that really makes me excited, and like I said, it pushes up the algorithm, right, we want people to hear the Bible. Right. I could tell that something was missing with Cult to Conspiracy. Not saying that they're doing

a bad job. They're doing. You know, obviously they're doing wonderful and they're bringing a lot of people wonderful as far as podcasting, right, they have a lot, they have a huge audience and big so obviously something was missing. You know, I'm not saying that everybody is into this type of show, but I think that it fill the void, definitely fill the void of real truth. Right, So everybody

that does listen, like I said, I appreciate you. And from the bottom of my heart, I really appreciate everybody that listens. So as you guys know, you know, we're in the Book of Numbers, and we are in numbers twenty nine, and I'll bring up my notes real quick to make sure that I'm ready to go. Let's see numbers twenty nine. There we go. So we're gonna be talking about the feast of trumpets, tabernacles, day of atonement.

I know that we went over this in Leviticus. What's happening here is there's a new generation of people, and you know, basically, they want to make sure that they our God wants to make sure that he is bringing it up to them. So they let me just bring it up both notes. I got two things that notes going here numbers twenty nine. There we go, okay, so this is twenty Okay, cool, I got twenty nine right here. And yeah, so this is a new generation of people.

So God is just going over the laws once again and the feast and everything, so not the full law, but he's going over things that he wants to make sure that they know because they're about to go into the Promised Land, right, so he wants to make sure that he reiterates what they need to do. Let's let's go ahead and share the screen, and we don't shy away from anything. If you're new to this show, I

don't skip anything. Even though we went over this in Leviticus, there's people right now that are new to the show, right, so you guys need to hear this too. So what I like to do is go over the whole entire Bible, you know, from We're going to go cover to cover, you know, So we don't like to shy away from anything. And okay, I want to have that pulled up. And I also want to have that pulled up. Let's go all right, let's let's go ahead and read. We're going

to be in numbers twenty nine verse one. This is going to be offerings at the feast of trumpets, okay. And in the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work for you. It is is a day of blowing the trumpets. You shall offer a burnt offering as a sweet aroma to the Lord, one young bull, one ram, and seven lambs in the first year without blemish. Their grain offering shall be fine flour mixed with oil.

Three tenths of an epha Ephah is a measurement in a measurement used and it's it's it's a particular amount I could uh, let me see, let's let's find out see guys, No, yes, I have that pulled up. What is an epha Bible? Okay. Epha as a Hebrew dry measure equivalent to a bushel. How much is it? I know it tells you one tenth of a homer or a little over a bushel. So for those that know measurements, you'll probably know what a homer is. I don't know what it is, but it's all good. Let's continue. So

when you hear epha, it's one tenth of a homer. Okay, So every time you hear that, then you know exactly what that is. Now, So let's go there. We'll go back to my notes and bring that up. Cool, all right, So we are so three tenths of an ephaw for the bowl, two tenths for the ram, and one tenth for each of the seven lambs, and also one kid

of the goats. Kid means like uh like, basically like a baby goat, as a sin offering to make atonement for you, besides the burnt offering with its grain offering for the new moon, the regular burno offering with its grain offering, and their drink offerings according to their ordnance, and as a sweet aroma, an offering made by fire to the Lord. So let's see, let's see if there's

anything I could kind of Okay. So the chapter begins with instructions for the offerings of the first day of the seventh month, which is the day of rest and sacred assembly. This day is known as the feast of trumpets. Yome to rah is what it's called. The offering includes a burn offering for the young bull, which you already talked about. Additionally, a male goats offered. The Hebrew term for trumpets is to raw, signifies a loud noise or shout,

emphasizing the celibratory and sacred nature of the day. That is an event that's happening. And let's see if there's any teaching points to that. Okay, uh, where is that? Sorry? Guys? All right, cool, perfect, and all right, let's continue. So numbers twenty nine, verse seven on. This is the offerings of the day of Atonement. On the tenth day of the seventh month. You shall have a holy convocation. You shall afflict your souls. You shall not do any work.

You shall present a bird offering to the Lord as a sweet aroma. One young bull, one ram, and seven lambs in their first year. Be sure that they are without blemish. Their grain offerings shall be of fine flour mix with oil. Two tents of an eph off for the bull, two tents of a one ram, one tenth of each for the seven lambs. Also one kid of the goats as a sin offering. Besides the sin offering for atonement, the regular burn offering with its grain offering

and their drink offerings. So day of atonement we'll go here to the offering is part for the sin offering and the regular daily bronc. Okay, cool, we got that, and we went over a day of atonement when we were in Leviticus. So I'm going to read through this, but I'm not going to do very much commentary on it, all right, because we have gone over this before, but I'm still gonna read it. I've seen a lot of pastors do this. A lot of pastors do this. They say,

all right, we run numbers chapter twenty nine. You guys know we went over this in Leviticus, so I'm not going to read this. We're going to skip to you know, numbers chapter thirty. Well, we don't do that here because we continue to dig and dig and dig. So that's offerings on day of Atonement, okay, And next up we're going to go to numbers twenty nine, verse twelve. Is there any teaching points I could go over for those

verses that we just went over, I'll read it. Offerings on the day of atonement on the tenth day of the seventh day of the day of Atonement, and a day of atonement is called yan Kapor, which I'm sure you guys have heard before. Okay. It is a day of fasting and humility. The offerings include one young bull, one ram. We already talked about all that in this email. Goat the Hebrew word kapoor relates to atonement or covering highlight in the days focus on reconciliation with God. That's

in my notes. So all right, let's continue offerings at the Feast of Tabernacles numbers twenty nine, verse twelve. On the fifteenth day of the seventh month, you shall have a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work. You shall keep a feast to the Lord. Seven days. You shall present a burnt offering and offering made by fire as a sweet aroma, thirteen bowl, young bulls, two rams, and fourteen lambs in the first in their first year,

they shall be without blemish. Their grain offering shall be a fine flower mixed with oil two tents of an ethaugh for each of the thirteen bulls, two tenths of fine flower mixed with oil, three tenths of an efall for each of the thirteen bulls, two tenths of two tenths for each of the two rams, and one tenth for each of the fourteen lambs. Also one kid of the goats as a sin offering besides the regular burn offering, its grain offering and it's drink offering. Two okay, And

so that's the first day, so we'll stop there. So the first day, thirteen bulls, two young rams. So is it with a milk rid. So starting with the fifteenth day of the month, the feast of the Tabernacles Sekut is celebrated for seven days. Each day has a specific offering. So we're gonna go through those, right, So we went through the first day already. Now we're going to go

to the second day. The second day is on the second day, present two young bulls, two rams, fourteen lambs uh in their first year without blemish, and their grain offering and their drink offering for the bulls, for the rams and for the lambs by the number according to the ordinance. Also one kid of the goats as a sin offering besides the regular burn offering with its grain offering and their drink offerings. So that's the second day.

Second day cool, and now we're going to go to the third day, and on the third day, present eleven bulls, two rams, fourteen lambs in the first year without blemish, and their grain offering and their drink offerings for the bulls, for the rams, for the lambs, for the number according to the ordinance. Also, one goat is a sin offering besides the regular burn offering, it's grain offering and it's drink offering. Now we're going to go to the fourth day.

This is numbers twenty nine, verse twenty three. On the fourth day, present ten bulls, two rams, and fourteen lambs in the first year without blemish. Now, let me just tell you guys before we continue. From our perspective, this is like, this is very foreign. So if you're new to listening to this, and let's say you haven't gone back to Levitikus or learn anything from all that, I suggest you go back, Okay, listen to it from there. That way you understand what's going on here and why

we're even dealing with this in the first place. Right, So, yeah, that way you know the context and everything. So let's continue on the and you know what to be honest, we may not sure because there's kind of a lot, but we may be able to finish the book of Numbers and get into Deuteronomy pretty soon here. So we might be able to finish it, maybe this week or next week. Not sure, but I'm really looking forward to getting into the Book of Deuteronomy because it's really really

interesting and awesome too. So let's continue. And they're grain offering and their drink offering for the bulls, for the rams, for the lambs by their number, according to their ordinance. Also one kit of goats a sin offering besides the regular burn offering, it's grain offering and it's drink offering. Okay, so now we're on numbers twenty nine verse twenty six on the fifth day. So we're on the fifth day.

Now present nine bulls, two rams, and fourteen lambs of their first year without blemish, and their grain offering and their drink offering for the bulls, for the rams, and for the lambs by their number, according to their ordinance. Also one according to their ordinance. Also one goat as a sin offering besides the regular burn offering, it's grain offering and it's drink offering. Now we are going to go into the seventh day, which is numbers twenty nine,

verse thirty two. On the seventh day, present seven bulls, two rams, and fourteen lambs in the first year without blemish, and their grain offering, for the drink offerings for the bulls, for the rams, for the lambs by their number, according to their ordinance. Also, one goat is the sin offering besides the regular burn offering, is grain offering, and is drink offering. So let me just read my notes, or actually let's read this first and then we'll go to

my notes. Okay, So numbers thirty twenty nine thirty five. On the eighth day, you shall have a sacred assembly. You shall do no customary work. You shall present a burnofering and offering made by fire as a sweet aroma to the Lord. One bowl, one ram, seven lambs in the first year without blemish, and the grain offering and their drink offerings for the bull, for the ram, and for the lambs by their number, according to the ordnance. Also one goat is a sin offering besides the regular

burn offering, his grain offering, and his drink offering. Let's see what it says on the eighth day is a closing assembly. Okay, so we're gonna stop at number twenty nine thirty nine. We're going to my notes. The eightey is closing assembly, also known as shamini at suret. I'm probably pronouncing that wrong and butchering it. I apologize if i am. The offerings include one bowl, one ram. We

already talked about it. The Hebrew term at seret implies a solemn assembly of gathering marketing marking the conclusion of the festival period. Okay, so it implies a solemn assembly or gathering. All right, So let's go ahead and check out this. So we're at numbers twenty nine, verse thirty nine. These you shall present to the Lord at your appointed feast, besides your vowed offerings and your free will offerings, as your burnt offerings, and your grain offerings, as your drink offerings,

and your peace offering. So Moses told the children of Israel everything, just as the Lord commanded. Moses. Amen to that. So we went through those to see if we got anything. In my notes, here find the Lord and strikes Moses about additional solemn assembly to be held a day. This assembly involves a special burn offering. Okay, we already read that, So now let's let's check out some teaching points for

numbers twenty nine. The Importance of Sacred Times. Numbers twenty nine outlines the offerings for the seventh month, emphasizing the sacredness of times set apart by God. This includes the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Betomat, and the feasts of Tabernact Detailed instructions. The chapter provides specifics and specific instructions for each offering, highlighting the importance of obedience and precision in worship. Each offering is a reminder of the

need for atonement and dedication to God. All Right, you guys see the extreme detail that God goes to, too, goes to for these people. And the thing is, it's like that, you know, It's like, we should appreciate the fact that Jesus died on the cross and he bridged that gap between us and God because being holy, that's what the whole Leviticus is about. It's about becoming holy

or set apart. Okay, so we should definitely appreciate what Jesus did on the cross, appreciate that God, the father sin has only begotten son to die on the cross for us. You know why, because it bridges that gap. You know, He's the met between man and God before you had to do all these things you know, to to you know, and you're still not even holy. You know, if you follow the law to a t, you could be holy. But who's doing that, you know, it's it's

just it's not working for humans. The only the only person I was able to do that is when Jesus was a man on the earth. Obviously he was God too, But let's continue symbolism of sacrifices. The various offerings include burn offerings, grain offerings, and sin offerings symbolize the different aspects of worship and relationship with God. They point to the need for purification and dedication. Yes, we definitely have

a need for purification. Everybody does right community worship. The communal aspect of these festivals underscores the importance of corporate worship and unity among God's people. So fellowship is definitely important. That's why, you know, some people they tell me that this is their church, and that's great, but we need

to have fellowship somewhere. So that's why it would be really cool if you guys just DM ME and and and I could I could at least contact you guys and and you know, have some type of communication besides me just talking and that way, if you guys have any questions, you could always, like I said, DM me Josh Monday Underscore podcast, follow me on Instagram. Foreshadowing Christ. The sacrifices and festivals foreshadow the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ,

who fulfills the law and offers eternal atonement for sin. Yes, that is definitely what I was talking about. It it's foreshadowing Christ. Right, practical applications for you guys for this chapter, prioritize worship. Just as the Israelite set aside specific times for worship, we should prioritize regular, intentional worship in our lives. And you know what a form of worship is obedience to God, right, it's it's it's like, that's a form

of worship. Some people believe that worship is going into church, putting your hands up, white people. Why white people play songs in music, worship music, and they feel like that's worship. Now, yes, it's a it's a form of worship. But God would rather you be obedient than than to do that. I think you know, I believe you see that throughout the Bible, obedience is so important. And you know what, what's crazy is The next line that I have is obedience in details.

Pay attention to the details of your spiritual life, ensuring that your actions aligned with God's commands. This is this is just It's vastly important. Obedience. Is it easy? No, but the Christian walk is not easy. When you when you actually come and you get saved by God, you get saved by the Lord, and then you end up picking up your cross and following him. You think it's an easy path. It's not easy. It's not like you get saved and then everything just becomes easy the rest

of your life. It actually, that's when the spiritual battle begins. That's when you put a giant target on your back for the devil to try to hit. So it's really important. Let me just make sure I won't get any text messages while I'm doing this, all right? Next one is seek atonement. Regularly seek forgiveness and purification through Christ, recognizing our need for His atoning sacrifice. Amen to that value community.

I kind of told you guys about that worship and fellowship reflect on Christ's sacrifice, Meditate on how the Old Testament sacrifices point to Jesus, deepening your appreciation for his work on the cross amen. I don't think I have anything here. And if you guys do want to, if you do want further additional context on these festivals, then go to Leviticus twenty three. That's when if you go back to my podcast and see when I'm going through Leviticus twenty three, I do a little deeper dive on

these particular festivals. Okay, this one I just wanted to read through, do a little commentary, a little context, but not get too crazy. And then and then if you want to go to Hebrews ten one through eighteen that discusses how Christ fulfills the sacrificial system and offers a once for all atonement. So check that out. And I know that some people have different opinions on that. Let me tell you Sean from Kingdom in context. I listened to his show, I listened to his debates, and he

believes that as Christians we should still follow the law. Now, just all I all I I don't tell anybody what they should and should not do. All I tell you as listeners if you have time. I know that this is one of your studies. You listen to Wednesday Sunday service, of course, but I also suggest that people listen to debates, you know, and and also kind of get a grasp on one person's point of view and another person's point

of view. Right, That's what I do. And I don't just put stuff to the side because my pastor says something or some church leader says something. I don't do that, and I'm sure you guys don't either, you guys, especially if you're in the Christian and conspiracy community. But I study all of it, you know, the Trinity, I study, you know. I try to listen to debates and just

I just suggest that you guys do that. This is great, that going through the Bible is great, and then at some point if you ever have a question on something, you could always list to a debate on it. That's that's what I would say, guys on that because he with Sean, I get along with them. But on the show before we did some biblical cosmology episode before, but he would have a different opinion on that portion that

I just said. He would say, Hebrews ten is not about that so just want to let you know that there's I don't like to just teach a one thing. I like to teach tell you guys, there's different things out there, and make sure that I explain that to you. Colossians two sixteen through seventeen reminds us that the festivals are a shadow of the things that come the substance found in Christ. Okay, so we're good. Now we got we kind of went over that. The chapter includes the

summary emphasizing, Okay, we're good. Their themes were good. Okay, cool, All right, now we're gonna go to numbers thirty. So we did a good twenty minutes on that. Perfect excuse me clear in my throat, all right, here we go, numbers thirty, Verse one. The law concerning vows is what the title is. Then Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes concerning the chosen of Israel, saying, this is

the thing which the Lord has commanded. If a man makes a vow to the Lord, or swears an oath to bind himself by some agreement, he shall not break his word. He shall do he shall do according to

all that proceeds out of his mouth. Or a woman makes a vow to the Lord and binds herself by some agreement while in her father's house or or in her father's house in her youth, and her father hears her vow and the agreement agreement by which she has bound herself, and her father holds his peace, then all her vowels shall stand, and every agreement with which she

has bound herself shall stand. But if her father overrules her on the day that he hears, then none of her vows nor her agreements by which she has bound herself shall stand, and the Lord will release her because her father's overruled her. So since she's in her youth, obviously she's probably young, and her father would probably know better. So if he hears her making a vow to the Lord, and that day he corrects it, then God is not

going to hold her accountable for that. But if he hears it and doesn't say anything, then that it's gonna stand. You see. And the first chapter or the first couple verses there one and two. If a man makes a vow or swears an oath to bind himself by some agreement, he shall not break his word. He shall do according to that what proceeds out of his mouth. So obviously you want to be careful. What you what kind of

a vow that you make to the lord. If you're gonna swear to the Lord, I'm not gonna do this anymore. You better be careful because it says right here, he shall, and he shall not break his word. He shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth, which is, you know something that we obviously should already know that we should we should be men of our word, right,

and we should not make a vow. But you know, you be a man of your word to when you're speaking to men, you know, and and you make a vow or to your wife, right. But this is talking about a vow that you make it to the lord. It also says or swears an oath to bind himself by some agreement. So a vow to the lord also by some agreement. So he said he shall, okay, you know in court when he say shall not, that's different than saying should not. Shall not means do not do

it at all? Okay, It's a it's a more powerful statement. So let's see. Is there anything anything introduction to the vows. I'm just gonna see if I wrote anything here. Okay, if I got anything out here, Moses conveys the command of the Lord to the leaders the tribes. Is regardting vows. A man who makes a vow to the Lord wh swears an oath we already read that will not break his promise. The Hebrew word for a vow is neither emphasizes a solemn promise or commitment made to God. Okay,

we already read. Okay, here's the other one. This reflects the part so when you're when you're talking about the vows by the young woman. This reflects the patriarchal structure where the father has authority over his daughter's commitments. So that's that's why, that's why it says that the father can overrule her. All right. Now, we're at numbers thirty

verse six. If indeed she takes a husband why bound while bound by her vows or by a rash utterance from her lips by which she bound herself, and her husband hears it and makes no response to her on the day that he hears, then her vow shall stand, and her agreements by which she bound herself shall stand. But if her husband over rules her on the day that he hears it, he shall make void her vow. Excuse me what she took and which she uttered by her lips, by which she bound herself, and the Lord

will release her. So, as you can see in the structure, when the woman is at home with the father, the father is obviously able to overrule her right. And also when you know the husband is the leader of the home, you know, I don't I know. People might say, ah, that's that's this, that's that. Okay, the husband is the leader of the home, but he should also be the spiritual leader of the home. Okay, So you can't just

be the leader. And if you don't love your wife like Christ love the Church, she's not going to follow you. So here is also, you know, showing the husband's authority over his wife's vows. It's also reflecting the maritual hierarchy of what God wants right. God wants the man to be the leader of the home and also to be able to be encouraging to his wife and tell her the correct things to do. But what I what I would say is make sure if you are the husband,

that you are making the correct decisions. Make sure you're being obedient to the Lord, because if you're not being obedient to the Lord, and you're trying to tell your wife what to do. You're not leading the home correctly. If you're not the spiritual leader. If you come home from work and you're just drinking beer the whole time, telling your wife make me dinner, lady, you know you're probably gonna have a pill battle. Depending on the wife.

Some wives are probably okay with that kind of stuff, you know, but I'm just saying others wouldn't be. So. If you want to be a leader of your home, I suggest, as a man, you be the top tier man. You know, you be a top tier man. We're the spiritual leader of the home. You're obedient to the Lord, and you're letting Jesus take the wheel. You know, God is obviously the number one. And then you know a husband and wife, right, all right, So you place God first,

everything else will follow. Let's see, let's get back to my notes. Vows made by a merry woman. We already read that. Now let's go two numbers thirty verse nine. Also, any vow of a widow or a divorced woman by which she has bound herself shall stand against her. If she vowed in her husband's house, or bound herself by agreement. Wait, oh, let's see nine. Okay, number nine, it says without a male authority figure, her vows stand, highlighting her autonomy in

this context. Okay, so that was kind of obvious. So let's continue number thirty, verse ten. If she vowed in her husband's house or bound herself by an agreement with an oath, and her husband heard it and made no response to her and did not overrule her, then her vowels shall stand, and every agreement by which she bound herself shall stand. And if her husband truly made them void on on the day he heard them, then whatever proceeded from her lips concerning her vowels or concerning the

agreement binding her shall not stand. Her husband has made them void, and the Lord will release her every vow and every binding oath to afflict her soul. Her husband make confirm it, or husband may make it void now, or for her husband makes no response whatever to her day today, then he confirms all her vowels, of all her agreements that bind her. He confirms them because he made no response to her on the day that he

heard them. But if he does make them void after he has heard them, then he shall bear her guilt. So if he tries to make them void after he already heard them, then that's a mistake. You gotta, you gotta, you gotta do it right then. So oh okay, So ten through fifteen, if a woman makes a vow in her husband's house, that stands unless her husband ullifies it on the day. Let's see what it says. The husband's role in confirming or nullifying vowels underscores his responsibility and authority.

You see, God, there's a lot of responsibility as a husband in the home back then, there's a lot now. But God is just clarifying everything for the man and the woman. Right. These are the statues which the Lord God commanded Moses between a man and his wife, and between a father and his daughter in her youth in her father's house. So very good for people to follow. Let's see what see what teaching points we can look up here for numbers thirty, So the importance of vows. Okay,

so numbers thirty. Verse two states when a man makes a vow to the Lord or swells, Oh, I think did I do that already? Let's see. Let's see this verse underscores the gravity of making vows to God and the expectation of fulfilling them. Next one is authority and accountability. Verses three through five discusses the role of a father confirm a no fire daughter's vow. This highlights of biblical principle, which we kind of already went through. Okay, we kind

of did a pretty deep dive on that. So we'll just go to the practical applications that you can use for your life, and then we'll go to numbers thirty one. Consider before you commit. This is very important before making a vow or promise prayerfully consider your ability to fulfill it. Let your yes be yes or your no be no, Matthew five thirty seven. Right, So, yeah, I wouldn't make a vow whatsoever unless you one million percent no, you

could fulfill it. You do not. I want to be making promises to the Lord at all that you cannot fulfill. And if you have some type of addiction, be careful, be careful about promising God that you're not going to do that particular drug or that particular alcohol, or that particular food or whatever you have that you're addicted to. Be careful and be careful about promising your wife or your husband, or your dad or your mom that you're not going to ever do that drug that you're addicted

to ever. Again, make sure you're a million percent sure before you tell somebody that, or else you're gonna have a very uphill battle. You're going to continue to just backslide and backside and backslide. And if you're making promises to God, I don't think you should. It's sane right here not to do that, Okay, Seek godly counsel in matters of significant commit Seek the wisdom and guidance of spiritual leaders or mentors who can provide insight and accountability.

That's obviously important to you know, young men that are listening, that's that are not married yet, choose wisely and choose a Christian woman or a believer. I just want to let you know it's very hard when you're unequally yoked for you to become the spiritual leader of your home if your wife is not even a believer. And also it's going to be hard with your kids because you're going to be trying to teach them the Bible and she's going to counter be teaching him whatever she believes.

So I just say, I'm just giving you young men and young women just a little advice. Women, if you're going to marry a man, you also want to make sure that you're choosing wisely, understand, and you're going to be with this person for your whole entire life, and you've got to make sure that you're equally yoked, meaning that you guys believe the same thing spiritually, because when you spiritually believe the same thing and you're making prayers, you know, you could be praying all day long and

your husband doesn't believe in God, and now there's lack of faith in the home, not from you, but from him. And I'll tell you something. When I was going through Luke Matthew Mark. You see when Jesus goes back to his town and Galilee, and what happens is the people they see him as just a carpenter's son. How is he doing all that stuff? That guy? I know who that is, That's Joseph's son. There was lack of faith. So Jesus healed a few people and he bounced, he

was gone. He didn't do a bunch of miracles like he did in these other cities, because he marveled at the lack of faith. So be careful if you have somebody in your home that has lack of faith. If you want Jesus to do miracles in your life and help save your son that's dying, or save your daughter that has infection, all this stuff, well you need to make sure your home doesn't have lack of faith. Not

saying that he wouldn't heal them. I'm just saying that lack of faith doesn't help that situation out look in Galilee. That's an example. Honor your word. Strive to be a person of integrity whose words aligned with actions reflecting the character of Christ in all your dealings. That is one important in your job well obviously in your marriage first

and in your job as well. When you have integrity and you deal with people and you have the right character and what you're speaking, your integrity and your words aligned with your actions, then you will be unstoppable at your job. Okay. Communicate in relationships very important in marriage and family. Maintain open communication about commitments, and seek unity and decisions that affect your spiritual journey. I agree with that one hundred percent. Communication and relationships, and I know

it's hard. Ladies and gentlemen, I know it's hard because me and my wife we have three kids, three, four,

and six. Okay, we had a one year old, two year old, and four year old at one time, and it's a madhouse, right, So communication is key if you have kids in the scenario, understand that you got to still continue to get to communicate with your wife and understand that that situations get pretty stressful, but you got to continue communicating, have integrity and unity in your decisions, and make sure you still continue to lead your wife to the Bible and to Christ and your kids. Okay,

for sure? All right, anything else that I could kind of all right, I don't have anything else, okay, So additional spiritual scripture, I mean additional spiritual scripture, sorry, additional scriptures that you could go to. Ecclesiastes five, verse four through five. When you make a vow to God, do not delay and fulfillment. He has no pleasure in fools. Fulfill your vowel. That's Ecclesiastes five, four through five. Let me make sure when you make a vow and do

not delay fulfill it. It has no pleasure in fools. Fulfill your vowel. Okay, So just want to make sure that's saying that. In Matthew five thirty three through thirty seven, Jesus teaches about the importance of keeping oaths and letting your word be trustworthy. Your yes is be yes, your nose be nos. Right, So in that those verses, Jesus teaches that, So you could go back there check that out for about vowels. Okay, James five twelve. Above all, my brothers, do not swear, not by heaven or earth,

or by any other oath. Simply let your yes be yes or your no be no, so that you will not fall under judgment. Sorry, that portion is actually in James and not Jesus. Okay, I'm just telling you. Actually, maybe let's check what that is again. You have heard that is said to people long ago. Do not break your oath or fulfill the Lord's vowels that have been made.

That's that's thirty three. Okay, perfect, We're good. So if you guys want to go back read those James five twelve, Matthew five thirty three through thirty seven Ecclesiasts four ecclese as Thees five four and five. Okay, all right, nice, So now we're gonna go to numbers thirty one, moving right along nicely here, all right, now we're gonna get off of the vows and the feast, and now we're

getting into vengeance on the Midianites. Here we go numbers thirty one, verse one, and the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, take vengeance on the Midianites for the children of Israel. Afterward you shall be gathered to your people. So Moses spoke to the people, saying, arm some of yourselves for war, and let them go against the Midianites to take vengeance for the Lord on midian A thousand from each tribe of all the tribes of Israel you shall send to war.

Here we go. Now this is the uh, the battle part.

Speaker 2

Oh, I'm trying to get some some of this, honey, Thank you.

Speaker 1

For your patience. Sorry, I gotta take a drinker. All right, let's go. Let's go. Did I do one through six yet? Okay, here we go. We're on numbers thirty one, verse five. So there were recruited from the division of Israel, one thousand from each tribe, twelve thousand armed for war. Then Moses sent them to war, one thousand from each tribe.

He sent them to war with Pheneus, the son of Aliazar the priests with the holy articles and the signal trumpets in his hand, and they warred against the Midianites, just as the Lord commanded Moses, and they killed all the males. They killed the kings of Midian and the rest of those who were killed Ivi, rickam Her, and Rieba, the five kings of Midian. Balem, the son of bor was also killed with the sword. Do you remember Balem? Okay, remember Balem? So Now I was wrong, It's actually was.

It was talked about in Joshua as well. I said, we wouldn't have known unless we read, uh, you know, numbers about it. But hey, it's right here. Balem the son of Boruh was also killed by the sword. So that's through six. Let's see. Let's check this out. Median okay, yeah, okay, uh sorry, let me just there's a teaching point, events, places and people, practical applications. Nope, I want that. So here we go. Numbers soap, So, Moses's father in law

was a Midianite. So that's kind of interesting that they end up becoming enemies like this. All right, So numbers thirty one, verse nine and the children of Israel took the women of Midian captive with their little ones, and took as spoil all their cattle, all their flocks, and all their goods. They also burned with fire all the cities where they dwelt and all their forts. And they took all the spoil and all the booty of man and beast. See, wars happened, you know, wars happened. You know.

I was in the United States Army, Okay, So I was always when I got into the Army, I was and I ended up deploying. I had that thought in my mind, like what if I go to war and I kill somebody? Like, is God going to be okay with that? You know, knowing especially I joined in twenty thirteen, Okay, so it was right after Sandy Hook, and I was studying Sandy Hook at the time, and I was like, oh my gosh, and this is you know, at the time, I felt like it was a complete false flag and

all this stuff, and I was just studying it. And I don't want to talk about that right now. I just want to tell you that's what I was studying at the time. And I went into the military, and once I deployed in twenty fifteen, I was like, thinking, man and had I kind of was awake to a

lot of the stuff. So I was like, you know, how would God feel if we were if we were in war and I killed somebody, knowing that we're really this there for all the you know, all the stuff that we know now, and it was just a hard thing for me. So I just want to let you

guys know that. You know, it's it's something hard for a soldier, like to a Christian soldier to juggle in their mind, especially when there's the military industrial complex and all this these reasons why we're there and we're literally just you know, thank God. I was in Kuwait and I was on a airfield and I was just feeling helicopters the whole time. God is great, you know, God is great. But as you see, the children of Israel took the women of Median captive and their little ones.

So let's see what they did after this, So numbers thirty thirty one, verse twelve. Then they brought the captives, the booty, and the spoil to Moses, to alias you are the priest, Alias are the priest, and to the congregation of the children of Israel to the camp and the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho, and Moses alias are the priest, and all the leaders

of the congregation went to them outside the camp. But Moses was angry with the officers of the army, with the captains over thousands and captains over hundreds who had come from the battle. And Moses said to them, have you kept all the women alive? Look, these women caused the children of Israel, through the Council of Balem, to trespass against the Lord, and the incident of peor and

the plague among the congregation of the Lord. Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has who has known a man intimately. But keep alive yourselves all the young girls who have not known a man intimately. As for you, remain outside the

camp seven days. Whoever has killed any person, whoever has touched any slain, purify yourselves and your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day, purify every garment, everything made of leather, everything woven of goat's hair, and everything made of wood. So obviously that's it's that's hard for me. You know to hear this, but they sined against God. This is different because you know, they have a tabernacle and God is like literally present with them.

You know, It's just it's just different. You know. It's not easy for me to to sit here and tell you guys, like, hey, I agree with everything that just happened right there. No, you deal with things in the Bible that are tough to swallow, but you're not in that position and you don't understand, and God obviously knows best. So we just got to go with and roll with it. But let's continue. I don't really have anything to say about that part. Let's see, is there any teaching points

I'm missing? Yeah, it's called the it's like the purification after the battle. After the battle, moseses or the Israelite leaders are we turning to the soldiers to camp, which we read Moses is angered by the soldier decision to spread the media nite women. He commands them to kill every male child in non virgin women, but allows the virgin women to live. Moses navies are to struct the

soldiers about the law concerning purification. Yep, we understand that they so, even though you're at war, you're still gonna have to you know, you're still unclean if you killed somebody, so you need to go out seven you know, seven days all that. So we're at numbers thirty one, Verse twenty one. Then, alias are the priests said to the men of war who had gone to battle, to the battle, this is the ordinance of the law Lord commanded Moses.

Only the gold, the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin, and the lead. That's the booty. That's what that is. Everything can endure fire, you shall put through the fire, and it shall be clean, and it shall be purified with the water purification. But all that cannot endure fire, you shall put through water. You shall wash your clothes on the seventh day and be clean afterwards to you

may come into the camp. So these people obviously were worshiping other gods and pagan and you know, God just wants it to be clean if they're gonna take it. Let's see, So twenty one through forty seven. Okay, we didn't go through that yet. So purification, division, offering of tribute. Okay, so division of plunders. So we'll continue reading. First one structs the soldiers. So right, this is a numbers thirty one, twenty five. Now the Lord spoke, this is division of

the plunder. Okay, Now the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, count up the plunder that was taken of man and beast. You and Alias are the priest and the chief fathers of the congregation, and divide the plunders into two parts, between those who took part in the war who went out to battle, and all the congregation and levy. A tribute to the Lord of the men of war who

went out to battle. One of the five hundred of the persons, the cattle, the donkeys, the sheep, take it from their half and give it to Alias the priest as a heave offering to the Lord. And from the children of Israel. Half. You shall take one of every fifty drawn from the persons, the cattle, the donkeys, and the sheep from the livestock, and give it give them to the levites who keep charge of the tavern nacle of the Lord. So Moses and Elias are the priests.

Did as the Lord commanded Moses, so one thing, I would say, So, okay, we'll continue. I have a little thing right here, but I want to wait till we finished all the way to verse forty seven. Okay, so we're at numbers thirty one thirty two. The booty remain. The booty is like all the money and the gold, the silver of the ten, all that stuff that I

was talking about. The booty remaining from the plunder which the men of war had taken, with six hundred and seventy five thousand sheep and seventy two thousand cattle, sixty one thousand donkeys, and thirty two thousand persons, in all of women who had not known a male intimately, and the half the portion of those who had gone out to war was in number and three hundred and thirty seven thousand, five hundred sheep, and the lord's tribute of

the sheep was six hundred and seventy five. The cattle were thirty six thousand, of which the lord's tribute was seventy two. The donkeys were thirty thousand, five hundred, for which the lord's tribute was sixty one. The persons were sixteen thousand, for which the lord's tribute was thirty two. Persons. So Moses gave the tribute, which was the lord's heave, offering to Aliazar the priest as the Lord commanded Moses, and from the children of Israel's half, which Moses separated

from the men who fought. Now the half belonging to the Congregation was three hundred and sixty seven thousand, five hundred sheep, thirty six thousand cattle, thirty thousand, five hundred donkeys, and sixteen thousand persons. And from the children of Israel's half, Moses took one of the fifty drawn from man and beast and gave them to the Levites, who kept charge

of the tabernacle of the Lord. As the Lord commanded Moses, thank God, we do not have to be at war like that, okay, or they just going to just just slaughter like that? Now war is it just happens. I mean, they were trying to go through the land of Median and the Israelites said, let us go through. We want to drink any of your water, we want to eat any of your food, your grain, we have everything we need.

We just want to go through. And they said no, and then they started trying to curse them right with Baylim and Baalick, the king Bailick. You know. So there was a lot of stuff that led up to this. If you're listening and you're you're new to this situation, and you know you haven't gone back. You got to go back and listen to the whole thing in numbers, and you'll see things that happen, like the women seduce the Israelites. They came down and seduce them. So that's

why the women are paying for what they did. Okay, So that's why all this is happening. And war it happens, and you're gonna see it throughout the Bible, you know, And a lot of the time when war happens, God says to kill all the men, women and children, and the and the cattle. Uh. That is when usually when they're going up against the Amorites or you know, going up against the giants. But this happens to be the Midianites, and they were were trying to do a lot of

stuff to the Israelites. So let's see if I have anything in my notes, it says division of plunder the booty of war, including captism livestock is counter divided between the soldiers, which we already read, and the rest of the Israelites community, with portion given to the Levites. So there's a portion given to Levites, because the Levites they don't get they don't have land and all the and

and sheep and everything they get. They get a portion because they don't have all that stuff, because they're they're priests. God come o Moses to levy a tribute from the portions as an offering to the Lord. Yes, all right, now, let's continue. Is there anything Let's see. I'm just trying to see if there's anything I'm missing places Midian We already talked about that. The media Knights were a nomadic people descended from Midian, a son of Abraham by Katurah

Genesis twenty five one through two. The Midia Knights lived in the region east of the Jordan River and the Dead Sea. It is now modern day northwest Saudi Arabia, northern Jordan, and parts of the southern Israel. The Hebrew route word for Midian can imply strife or contention, which is fitting giving the conflict described in this chapter. All right, so you have that, cool? All right, I don't have any anything on that portion numbers thirty one, verse forty eight.

Then the officers who were over thousands of the army, the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds came near to Moses, and they said, to Moses, your servants have taken account of the men of war who are under our command, and not a man of us is missing. Therefore we have brought an offering to the Lord. Then every man found of ornaments of gold, armlets and bracelets, and signet rings, and ear rings and necklaces, to make

atonement for ourselves before the Lord. So Moses and aliens Are the priests received the gold from them, all the fashion ornaments and all the gold. Of the offering that they offered to the Lord from the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds was sixteen thousand, seven hundred and fifty shekels. The men of war had taken spoil every

man for himself. And Moses and alias Are the priests received the gold from the captains of thousands and hundreds and brought it into the tabernacle of meeting as a memorial for the children visual before the Lord. Let's see what teaching points we have here. Divine command and obedience. We talked about that already. It begins with the Lord instructing Moses to take vengeance on the Midianites. This command highlights the importance of obedience to God's directives, even if

they are difficult to understand. You see, some of this is very difficult to understand, especially the way we do it nowadays. Nowadays, war is you guys already know. It's just a lot of it. It's just politicians who never have shot a bullet making decisions for soldiers like myself to go out and do things. And we're all fighting against other men who are uncles, who are brothers, who have sisters or also women who have husbands, you know, and wives. The men have wives. And then we're out

doing the bid for all these politicians. It's terrible, you know. Now this is different because they're they're actually they're taking directors from God. So so it's judgment time for the Midianites. That's what it is is. It's a literal judgment time, So judgment on sin the Midianites. This is another teaching point. The Midianites had led Israel into sin at pure and this chapter shows the seriousness which God deals with uh

seriousness with which God deals with sin. It serves as a reminder of the consequences of leading others into sin. You're better off having a millstone around your neck and being dropped in the deepest part of the ocean, than to cause one of my children to stumble. That's what Jesus says. So even Jesus is like that too. The women came down and they caused the men to stumble. The Balem, you know, was trying to Bailik, was trying to get Baalim to curse the Israelites. Okay, so they

are being judged for their sins. Role of leadership. Moses as a leader, faithfully communicates and executes God's command numbers thirty one, three through six. This underscores the responsibilities of leaders to guide their people according to God's will. Yeah, you guide your people according to God's will, even if it's uncomfortable. I'm sure it's uncomfortable to be put in that position. I wouldn't want to be in that position of Moses where you have to say, slay all those women.

That'd be very, very tough for me. I'm just being honest. Purification and holiness. After the battle, the Israelites are instructed to purify themselves and the spoils of war numbers thirty one, nineteen through twenty four. This emphasizes the need for holiness. And and they're cleansing for from defilement. Yes, because they are murdering people in the battlefield. They're killing and you know, God, even though it's God's will, he still they still have

to cleanse himself right and purify themselves. Distribution of spoils. The division of the spoils numbers thirty one through fifty four reflects God's provision and fairness, ensuring that both those who fought and those who stayed behind were rewarded. Were rewarded. And let's check out some practical applications that you could use for your life. Obedience to God's word. We are called to obey God's commands, trusting in his wisdom and justice,

even when we do not fully understand his ways. Okay, so we don't fully understand always, but we still need to trust His wisdom and justice. Guarding against sin. Just as the Israelites face consequences for their sin, we must be vigilant in guarding our hearts and communities against influences that lead us away from God. You guys understand how much influences are out there right now in America? My gosh,

it's terrible. I mean, there's so much out there that leads you away from God, and we deal with it, you know, we all deal with it as Christians and believers. And you know, for those out there that are listening to this Bible say that aren't fully believers, yet you're dealing with it all the time. There's so much out there, so much out there that will lead you away from God. That's why this Bible study is vastly important for your

life and for mine. It's helping me, assisting me into understanding and is teaching me to understand the Bible in a certain way that I that I never got to do. So it's such a blessing. Praise God. Pursuit of holiness, we are reminded of the importance of spiritual purification and living a life set apart for God. That's what holiness means. Being holy is to be set apart, a life set

apart for God. Equity and generosity. The fair distribution of spoils teaches us to be equitable and generous, recognizing that we all have that all we have is from God. Everything you have is from God. Okay, everything in the Book of James, I think it says everything you have give glory to the Father the people that we're in here. Balam I told you guys about Balim Okay. He was a non Israeli, a prophet who previously attempted to curse Israel but ended up blessing them. He is killed by

the Israelites during the battle against the Midianites. All right, let's see, all right, we went over the teaching points, the practical applications. Perfect, all right, so we're gonna go to numbers thirty two. Now, moving right along. We may or may not be able to finish numbers today. I'm not sure. The tribes settling east of the Jordan, now this is numbers thirty two, verse one. Now, the children of Reuben and the children of God had a very

great multitude of livestock. And when they saw the land of Jazzar and the land of Gilead, that indeed a region was a place for the livestock. The children of God and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, to Aliasar and the priest and the leaders of the congregations, saying at tooth de bonne jesse niema hashbone iliya shabam nebo, and beyond the country which the Lord defeated before the Congregation of Visual is a land of livestock, and your

servants have livestock. Therefore, they said, if you have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants as a possession. Do not take us over the Jordan. Okay. So they didn't want to go over the Jordan. They didn't want to go into the promised land. And Moses said to the children of Gadden, to the children of Reuben, shy, your brethren go to war while you sit here. Now, why will you discourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the

land which the Lord has given them. Thus your fathers did when I sent them away from Kadesh Barnia, and to see the land, For when they went up the valley of Eshkol, and the land which the Lord had given them for the Lord's anger was a row on that day. And he swore and oh, saying, surely none of the men who come out of Egypt from twenty years old and above shall see the land which I swore to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, because they have not wholly followed me, except Caleb and the son of jep Nah.

That Kennesite and Joshua, the son of None, for they have holy followed the Lord. So the Lord's anger was aroused against Israel, and he made them wander in the wilderness forty years until all, until all that generation had done evil, and the sight of the Lord was gone. And look you have risen in your father's place a broad of sinful men, to increase still more fierce anger against the Lord. Of anger of the Lord against Israel.

For if you turn away from following him, he will once again leave them in the wilderness, and and you will destroy all these people. Then they came near to him and said, we will build sheep folds here for our livestock, and cities for our little ones. But we ourselves will be armed, ready to go before the children of Visuel until we have brought them to their place. And our little ones will dwell in the fortified cities

because of the inhabitants of the land. And we will not return to our homes until every one of the children of Israel has received his inheritance. But we will not inherit with them on the other side of the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance has fallen to us on the eastern side of the Jordan. So let me go back and see what's going on here. This is verses one through five. It says the tribes of Reuben and Gad, having large livestock herds, are attacks attracted to

the fertile lands. So that's what's happening here. They proposed to Daily's other priests and community leaders to these lands to be suitable for them. So yeah, it's because they have a bunch of livestock. Moses expresses concern about the decision might discourage the other Iselites from crossing into Canaan, reminding them of the consequences their ancestors face for their disobedience. He fears history he might repeat itself, and worries about

God's anger against Israel. Right now we're jumping into the negotiation. The tribes of Reuben Agad offer a solution. They proposed to build pens for the livestock because they because they have a lot of livestock. Right we talked about that right now, and the cities of their families for their men of the fighting age will cross the Jordan armed to help the follow fellow. Is right. So they're saying that they're but their men of fighting age will cross

the Jordan armed to help their fellow Israelites. Okay, perfect, now we're going to be in numbers thirty two, verse twenty. Then Moses said to them, if you do this thing, if you arm yourselves before the Lord for the war, and all your armed men cross the Jordan before the Lord until he has driven out his enemies from before him, and the land is subdued before the Lord, then afterward you may return and be blame us before the Lord and before Israel, and this land shall be your possession

before the Lord. But if you do not do so, then take note you have sinned against the Lord, and be sure your sin will, your sin will find you out. Build cities for your little ones and folds for your sheep, and do what has proceeded out of your mouth. So now we're at twenty. Moses agrees to their proposal, with the condition if they fulfilled their promise, their families and livestock can stay east of the Jordan. But if they fail, they will receive their inheritance in Canaan. All right, let

me get another drink of water. Obviously I still have some weird thing going on. All in my throat. All right, um, Now we're in twenty five thirty two, we're going to be in numbers thirty two, verse twenty five. And the children of God and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying, your servants will do as my Lord commands. Our little ones, our wives are flocks, and all our livestock will be

there in the cities of Gailad. Gilead. Sorry, but your servants will cross over every man armed for war before the Lord to battle, just as my Lord says. Now we're in thirty two, verse twenty eight. This is going to be the assignment of land. So Moses command concerning them, and alias are the priests to Joshua, the son of Nun, and the chief fathers of the tribes of the children

of Israel. And Moses said to them, if the children of God and the children of Reuben cross over the Jordan with you, every man armed for battle before the Lord, and the lands is subdued before you, then you shall give them the land of the Gilead as a possession. But if they do not cross over armed with you, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan. All right, So now we're in verse thirty one. We're

in number thirty two, verse thirty one. Then the children of God and the children of Reuben answers, saying, as the Lord has said to your servants, will do. We will cross over armed before the Lord into the land of Canaan, but the possession of our inheritange shall remain with us on this side of the Jordan. That's so the assignment of land we kind of talked about that the valigance the fellow is ship okay, So Gad have

the tribe of Manassai. Okay. So it says here in the notes that Moses, with Eliezar and the community leaders grants the land of Jazar and Gilead to the tribes of Reuben and God and half the tribe of men Assai after the vow to fight alongside their fellow Israelites. Yeah, so they will send them their sons that are fighting aids to war. But they just want to they just want that land. So Moses, let's continue numbers thirty two,

verse thirty three. So Moses gave to the children of God, to the children of Reuben, and to half the tribe of Manassa. The son of Joseph, the Kingdom of Chion, king of the Amorites. All right, here we go. Let me just reread that. So Moses gave the children of God to the children of Ruben and half the tribe,

and asside the son of Joseph Caun. We talked about that the kingdom of Shinia Shinah Shahan king of the Amorites, and the kingdom of og king of Bashan, the land with its cities and the borders, the cities of the surrounding country. And the children of God built Devon, Authoroth and Aroar Arthoth and Chippin and Jazar and Jog Binah, Beth Namara, beth Haran fortified cities and folds for their sheep.

And the children of Rumen built Hashbah and Allah Kurjah, him Nebu and Bay and baal Mian, their names being changed in Shibnah. And they gave other names to the cities which they built. And the children of Macar, the son of Manassai, went to Gilead and took it and disposed the Amorites who were in it. So Moses gave Gilead and Macar, the son of Manassai, and he dwelt in it also, Jar, the son of Manassai, went and

took the small towns and called them Havoth Jar. Then boh Naba went and took Kannath and its villages, and he called it Naba after his own name. All right, so that's numbers thirty two. Let's go a couple of teaching points. So the tribes of Reuben and Gad saw the land of Jezar and Gilead suitable for their livestock and requested to settle their insight crossing and Jordan and the promised land. We can't have talked about that. We

talked about Moses' initial response. We talked about that. Let's uh. Now, let's go to the practical applications for your life. Evaluate your desires. Consider whether your desires align with God's will or if they are based on immediate gratification and comfort. You notice that they saw that land was beautiful for their livestock, and they were like, let's go. We want this, but this is not the promised land that God promised,

so they are looking for instant gratification and comfort. Commitment to community. Recognize the importance of supporting and standing with your community in their spiritual journey, even if your personal needs seem met. Of course, like all the twelve tribes are thirteen if you count Manassai and Ephriom, right, if you count both of them, So you got thirteen tribes, all of them banned together and working together is the best. But they wanted to break off Ruben Goad and Manassai

halfa Manassai right. Faithfulness to promise, be diligent and fulfilling commitments, especially those made before God and others, discernment and decision making, seek God's guidance and decisions and staying that they do not lead you away from His promise and purpose purposes. Yeah, so see God's guidance and decisions. Right. Uh. You know, I'm sure Moses during this time, you know, even like in some some points like you know, to say he doesn't say like Moses went and spoke to God first

before he made the decision. He made some decisions. He's a leader. But I'm sure that he went several times back to pray to God, talk to God and got you know, because it keeps saying as the Lord commanded, right, he keeps saying as the Lord commanded when he when he's giving out these the feast and and and and sacrifices and certain things like that, right, so we have that anything else, Moses, josh No, we don't need to talk about that, okay. So here is some connections and

additional scriptures. You could go to Joshua twenty two one through six. It's basically talking about the fulfillment of the promise by the tribes of Reuben, Gad and half of an Assai, highlighting their faithfulness. So if you check out Joshua twenty two one through six. When we get there, we'll go over that. Hebrews three twelve through nineteen is a warning against unbelief and disobedience, drying parallels to the

Israelites experience. So if you want to go back to that Hebrews three twelve through nineteen, and then if you also go to Proverbs three versus five through six, encouragement to trust the Lord and not lean on your own understanding and decision making. That's what Proverbs three five through six is kind of going over. I would definitely suggest

to check those out. All right, let's go back, We'll not go back, let's go forward, and we're going to be in numbers thirty three, Verse one let's go forward, all right. So Israel's journey from Egypt reviewed. Okay, so numbers thirty three, verse one. These are the journeys of the children of Israel, who went out of the land of Egypt by their armies under the hand of Moses and Aaron. Now Moses wrote down the starting points of their journeys to the command of the Lord, and these

are their journeys according to their starting points. They departed from Ramses in the first month. On the fifteenth day of the first month, on the day after the passover, children of Israel went out with boldness in the sight of all the Egyptians, where the Egyptians were bearing all their first borm first born, whom the Lord had killed among them. Also on their gods, the Lord had executed judgments. We kind of already saw that, right, We already went

over that. So the Bible is saying that as well, that God executed judgments on their gods. That's why all the plagues were just basically countering their gods. You want to worship these, Okay, I'm gonna give you this, you know, all right, let's continue. Let's see if I have anything. Yeah, it's gonna be so okay, so we already see that God's deliverance stages of the journey. Okay, let's continue numbers thirty three, verse five. Then the children visual moved from

Ramseys in camp at Sakaf. They departed from Seccath and camp at Ethan, which is on the edge of the wilderness. They moved from Ethem and turned back to pi Hrath, which is east of bail Or baal Zephon, and they camped near Migdol. They departed before Heiroth and passed through the midst of the sea into the wilderness. When three days journey in the wilderness of eat them and camp that Marah. They moved from Arah and camped that elam Elam were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees,

so they camped there. They moved from Ilium and camped by the Red Sea. They moved from the Red Sea and camped in the wilderness of Sin. They journeyed from the wilderness of Sin and camped at the at dof Kaw. They departed from dof Khaw and camp that Alush. They moved from a loosh and camped that Raffidium, where there was no water for the people to drink. They departed from Raphidium and camped to the wilderness of Sinai. They moved from the wilderness of Sinai and camped that Kabrath

had Tavah. They departed from Tavah and camp that his Arath. They departed from Hisrath and camped at Ritma. They departed from Rittma and camped at Remy and Perez. They departed from Remy and Perez and they camped at lib Nah. They moved from Libnah and camped at Rishah. They journeyed from Rashah and camped at Kiliatha. And went from Kiliatha and camped at Mount Shaffar. They moved from Mount Shafar and camped that Harada. And they moved from Heredan camped

at Macloth. They moved from Mcloth and camp that Tanath. And they departed from Tanath and camp that Tarah. They moved from Tohran camped at Mythkah. And they went from Mythkah and camped that Hashmanah. They departed from Hashmanah and camped at Mazaath. They departed from Masaath in camp at Ni Jacan. They moved from Benigh Jacon and camped at or Higadad. And they went from or Higadad and camped at job Bothnah. They moved from j Bothna and camp

that Abana. They departed from Aberna and camp that is on Gibor or Geber. They moved from Isnaan Gibor Gebir, and camp in the wilderness of Zen, which is Kadesh. And they moved from Kadesh and camped at Mount Or on the boundary of the land of Edom. Then Aaron the Prince the priest went up to Mount Or and commanded the Lord and died there in the fourteenth year, after the children of Israel came out of the land

of Egypt. And on the first day of the fifteen month, Aaron was one hundred and thirty three years old when he died. Praise God for him to be able to live that long life of obedience. Right now, the King of Arod, the Canaanite, who dwelt in the south line of Canaan, heard of the coming of the children of Israel. So they departed from the mount Or in cant that asaf Naha. Here we go again. They departed from Zalwana in cant that Banun. They departed from Panun and cant

that Obath. And they departed from Obatha, cant that Elizabrim and the border of at the border of Moab. They departed from Jim and can't that dip Gad wait dib Gad. They moved from Divingad, and can't that Alam Diplathium. They moved from Alam dith Liam. And they canted at the mountain of Abriam before Nebo. And they departed from the mountains of Abriam and camped to the plains of Moab where the Moabites were by the Jordan across from Jericho. And they camped by the Jordan from Beth Jessmoth as

far as abel Acacia Grove in the plains of Moab. Yes, okay, anything, okay, They're just reflecting on the journey instructions for the conquests of Canaan. Now, the Lord spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho, saying, speak to the children of Israel. Say to them, when you have crossed the Jordan into the land of Canaan, then you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land before you destroy all they're engravestones, destroyed all their

molded images, and demolish all their high places. So just to let you guys know, they would the high places. Why do they do that? Because God is above the firmament, right, God is sitting over the you know if you look at Isaiah forty twenty two, right, So I believe God is close. Some people believe God is far far, far far far away and ever expanding and lead us is going far far for away. I believe that God is close.

So they put them at high places because you know, there's the first heaven is where the moon, sun of the stars are located. So they're trying to get close as close to possible to that. That's why they have them in high places. Right, So they're demolishing them because that's where they would do their rituals on high mountains. Okay, let's continue. You shall dispose of all the inhabitants of the land and dwell in it. For I have given

you the land to possess. And you shall divide the land by lot as an inheritance among their families to your larger. To the larger, you shall give a larger inheritance to the smaller. Smaller, you shall give a smaller inheritance. There everyone's inheritance shall be whatever falls by him by lot. You shall inherit according to the tribes of your fathers.

But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then it shall be that those whom will you let remain shall be irritants in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and you shall harass They shall harass you in the land where you dwell. Moreover, it shall be that I do not Moreover, it shall be that I do not do to you as I thought to do to them. Moreover, more Over, it shall be that I will do to you as I thought

to do to them. So he's saying, get rid of them, all of them, or they're going to be thorns in your side, right, And he's also saying that moreover, he shall that be that I will do to you as I thought to do to them. So, yeah, all right, that's numbers thirty three completed. Let's check out what we have here on teaching points. Historical record numbers thirty three one through two begins with Moses recording the stages of the Israeli's journey as commanded by the Lord. This emphasizes

the importance of remembering and documenting God's work in our lives. Yes, we all have a testimony, and we got to remember what God has done for us. We are not perfect to start, you know, we're trying to become perfect. But you know, when you when God's first, when you first get saved, you got to remember the journey. You got to remember what God's done for you your whole entire life. You might have gone through a hard life like I did, you know, like how many times could I have died

in a duy or drug overdose or whatever. You know, God saved me. So we got to remember these journeys. And then we also have to remember our walk with the Lord. When we started walking with God, you know, we got to remember everything He's done for us and just appreciate it. We have kids, we have a house, whatever God has blessed us with. We have to remember

the journey. So God, that's why this is going to you know, kind of going over this God's deliver it deliverance and verses three and four recount the departure from Egypt, highlighting God's mighty acts of judgment against the Egyptians and his deliverance of his people. This serves as a reminder of God's power and faithfulness and delivering us from bondage. Yes, some of us are still stuck in bondage right now, Lord, I ask you, and you show them, is Cheihok's name

that you break those chains. Lord, Bondage is something. If you're still in sin, if you're still fighting with sin and constantly fighting with that same sin, you're in bondage. Okay, you are in bondage. And I understand what you're going through. I have been in bondage before myself. I just asked that you just you know, you've got to continue reading the Word, and you've got to stick with being obedience, stick with this Bible study or another Bible study, whatever

helps you stick with it. Though you have to go to the New Testament one on Wednesday's service as well. It'll help you through your walk, you know, all right. The Stages of the Journey so verses five through forty nine. The chapter meticulously lists each encampment, illustrating the long and challenging journey. This reflects the reality of our spiritual walk,

which often involves various stages and challenges. Yes, like I was talking about obedience and consequences and verses fifty through fifty six, God commands the Israelites to drive out the inhabitants of the land to destroy their idols. Failure to obey would result in inhabitants becoming a snare. This underscores the importance of obedience to God's commands and the consequences of disobedience. All right, next, let's do some practical applications.

Reflect on your journey. Just as the Israelites had a record of their journey, time, take time to reflect on your spiritual journey. Consider how God has led and provided for you through your different stages of life. We talked about that already. We were talking about you know, we already kind of went over that. Trust in God's deliverance. Remember that God is powerful and faithful to deliver us from our own Egypt's situations and bondage of sin. Trust

in His ability to lead you to freedom. You got to have faith that you know that God can take away that that sin. You got to have faith. You've got to know that the devil is lurking like a lion, ready to devour. So don't give him the don't take the bait. That's all you got to do is don't take that bait. He's gonna put it in your mind. He's going to do what he can for you to take that bait. Whatever triggers you, those triggers are gonna come.

But you gotta be strong in the word. You gotta stay in the word because faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. So continue to read the word. You've got to make that shield of faith massive so you could dodge the wiles of the devil. And if you refuse the devil, he will flee. Okay, he will flee. He's he can't just continue. There's rules to this game. He can't just continue to pounce. When

new pounce. When you pounce, the new pounds and you if you keep resisting him, resist the devil, and he shall flee. That's James four to seven. Resist the devil, he shall flee. If it's written, you have to believe it. Stay the course. The journey to the Promised Land was long and difficult, Yet the Israelites were called to to uh persevere. If your spiritual walk remains steadfast, in your spiritual walk, remains steadfast and patient, trusting in God's timing.

That's something that we all need to understand. All we got to have patience. We might think that that we have patience, but you know, we got to make sure we have patience. Remain stead fashion and patience, trusting in God's timing. Yes, that's that's amen to that. Stay the course, obedience to God's commands, be vigilant and obeying God's word. Understanding that disobedience can lead to spiritual snares and setbacks. Okay, disobedience definitely leads to. What it does is it separates

you from God. That sin will separate you from God. So you work so hard to get closer and closer to God, and then you sin, boop, You're right back here again. And then you know, you start feeling a shamed. You don't want to read the word because you feel like you're not worth it and you're not worthy. Just just fight through it, right, and you'll do You'll do great.

You'll be able to do great. Events we already talked about versus versus that connect to this would be if you want to the initition departure from Egypt is in Exodus twelve Versus thirty one through forty two, if you want to go read those. Deuteronomy eight verse two reflects on the purpose of the wilderness journey as a time of testings and reliance on God. If you go to Hebrews three seven through nineteen, it warns you against hearting of hearts and the is as the Israelites did encourage,

encouraging us to remain faithful. And if you want to go to Psalms one thirty six, ten through sixteen, Psalms of thanksgiving and recounting God's deliverance and guidance through the wilderness. All right, let's go ahead, and we have about twenty minutes, so let's so this is kind of going to go over the boundaries of the promised land and land allocation. Okay,

numbers thirty four verse one. Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, command the children of Israel, and say to them, when you come into the land of Canaan, this is the land that shall fall to you as your inheritance, the land of Canaan and its boundaries. Your southern borders shall be from the wilderness of Zin along the border of Edom. Then your southern border shall extend eastward to the end

of the Salt Sea. Your border shall turn from the southern side of a scent a Kabrim ak Rabim, continue to Zin and be south of Kadesh Barnea. Then it shall go on the Huszar Adar and continue to Asthman. The border shall turn from excuse me Asthman to the Brook of Egypt, and it shall end at the sea. As for the western border, you shall have the Great Sea for a border. This shall be a western border, and this shall be your northern border. From the Great Sea,

you shall mark out your borderline at mount Or. From Mount Or, you shall mark out your border to the entrance of Hamath. Then the direction of the border shall toward Zidad. The border shall proceed to Zephyron, and it shall end at Hazar and on. This shall be your northern border. You shall mark out your eastern border from Hazar to Enon and Sefam. The border shall go from Safam to Reblah. On the east side of Ain, the border shall go down and reach to the eastern side

of the sea of Chinnarath Chinnareth. The border shall go down along the Jordan and shall end at the salt sea. This shall be your land with its surrounding boundaries. Then Moses commanded the children of Visuals, saying, this is the land which you shall inherit by lot, which the Lord has commanded to give to the nine tribes and to the half tribe. Why is that, because obviously Reuben, Gad and half of Manassai are staying behind. They're not going

to cross the Jordan. For the tribe of the children of Reuben according to the house of their fathers, and the tribe of God, according to the House of their fathers, they receive their inheritance. They have received their inheritance, and the half tribe of Nassaid has received its inheritance. The two drive that the two tribes and the half tribe have received their inheritance on this side of the Jordan,

across from Jericho eastward toward the sunrise. We don't need to go back on that, because we already talked about that the leaders appointed to divide the land. Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, these are the names of the men who shall divide the land. Among the inheritance and lias are the priest and Joshua, the son of nun, and you shall take one leader of each tribe and divide the land for the inheritance. These are the names

of the men from the tribe of Judah. Caleb, the son of Jeffeni, which is my middle name, from the tribe of the children of Simeon. Shamul, the son of Amahud, from the tribe of Benjamin. Eldad the son of Cheslam, a leader from the tribe of the children of Dan Buki, the son of Jaghli from the sons of Joseph, a leader from the tribe of the children of an Assai. Heniel the son of Iphod. I'm only laughing because I'm probably pronouncing these things, so I'll probably butchering these names.

And a leader from the tribe of the children of Ephraim. Kamuel, the son of ship Tan, a leader from the tribe of the children of Zebelon Eliezafan, the son of Paranak, children of the tribe of Eshkar, Patil the son of Ason, a leader from the tribe of the children of asher I Healed, the son of shell Me Sorry Shalomi she loam me Okay, and the leader from the tribe of Naphtali Paduel, the son of Ambihud. These are the ones

the Lord I commanded that did divide. They inherited someone of the children of Israel in the land of Canaan. Now we're at numbers thirty five. We may let me see this is not too crazy. Okay, cool, all right, number thirty five, Verse one. I think we can blasts through this. All right, guys, let's blast through this, uh, guys and girls. That way we finished the book of numbers.

Let's go number thirty five, Verse one of the Lord spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan across Jericho's saying, command the children of Israel, there's going to be the cities for the Levites. Command the children of Israel that they give the Levite cities to dwell in from their inheritance their possession. And you shall

also give the Levites common land around the cities. They shall have the cities to dwell in, and their common land shall be for cattle, for their herds and their animals. The common land of the cities which you will give the Levites shall extend from the wall of the city outward a thousand cubits all around, and you shall measure outside of the city of the on the east side two thousand cubits, on the south side two thousand cubits, on the west side two thousand cubits, and on the

north side two thousand cubits. The city shall be in the middle. This shall belong to them as common land for the cities. Now, among the cities which you will give to the Levites, you shall appoint six cities of refuge to which a man slayer may flee. So this is talking about a place where they will send somebody that has committed manslaughter. Okay, that's what this is. And these you shall add forty two cities. So all the cities you will give to the Levites shall be forty eight.

You shall give with their common land. And the cities which you will give will be a possession of the children of Israel. From the larger tribe you shall give many, when the smaller you shall give few. Each shall give some of his cities to the Levites, in proportion to the inheritance of each receives all right cities of refuge. Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, speak to the children of Vizuels, when you cross the Jordan into the

land of Canaan. Then you shall appoint cities to be cities of refuge for you, that the manslator, who kills any person accidentally may flee there. They shall be cities of refuge for you from the Avenger, that the manslayer may not die until he stands before the congregation and judgment. And of the cities which you give, shall give six cities of refuge. You shall appoint three cities, of which

the side of Jordan. Three cities you shall appoint in the land of Canaan, which will be the cities of refuge. There's six cities shall be for refuge for the children of Israel, for the stranger, for the sojourner among them. That anyone who kills a person accidentally may flee there right anybody that committed manslaughter. But if he strikes him with an iron implement, so that he dies, he is a murderer. The murderer shall surely be put to death.

But if he strikes him with a stone in the hand by which one could die, and he does die, he is a murderer. The murderer shall surely be put to death. Or if he strikes him with a wooden hand weapon which one could die, and he dies, then he is a murderer. The murderer shall be put to death. The Avenger of Blood himself shall put the murderer to death. But when he meets him, he shall put him to death.

If he pushes him out of hatred or why lying in wait, hurls something at him so that he dies, or an emptity, he strikes him with his hand so that he dies. The one who struck him, surely shall be put to death. He is a murderer. The Avenger of Blood shall put the murderer to death when he meets him. However, if he pushes him suddenly without enmity,

or throws anything at him without lying in wait. This is explaining what to do with murderers or manslaughters, or uses a stone by which a man could die, throwing him, throwing it at him without seeing him, so that he dies while he's not an enemy, or seeking his harm. That the congregation shall judge between the man slayer and

the Avenger of Blood according to these judgments. So the Congregation shall deliver the manslayer from the hand of the Avenger of Blood, and the congregations shall return him to the city of refuge where he had fled, and he shall remain there until the death of the high priest

who was anointed with the holy oil. But if the man slayer at any time goes outside the limits of the city of refuge where he fled, the avenger of blood finds him outside the limits of the city of refuge, the avenger of blood kills the man slayor he shall not be guilty of blood because the guy that because the guy is told not to leave the refuge city of refuge. Okay, because he should have remained in his city of refuge until his death. Okay, yes, it says

right there of the high priest. But after the death of the high priests, the manster may return to the land of his possession. And these things shall be statute of judgment to you throughout your generations, in all your dwellings. Whoever kills a person, the murderer shall be put to death on the testimony of witnesses. But one witness is

not sufficient against testimony against a person for the death penalty. Moreover, you shall take no ransom, So you gotta it's two or more witnesses, right, two or more If you're gonna have the death penalty. Moreover, you shall take no ransom for the life of a murder who is guilty of death, but he shall surely be put to death. And you shall take no ransom for him who has fled to the city of refuge, and he may return to dwell the land before the death of the priest. So you

shall not pollute the land which you are. For blood defiles the land, and no atonement can be made for the land for the blood that is shed on it, except by the blood of him who shed it. Therefore, do not defile the land which you inhabit in the midst of which I dwell, for the Lord dwell among the children of Israel. So this is thirty five, right. Oh, no,

I didn't mean to do that. There we go. I don't really need to go over practical applications for this, because I kind of want to get through the Book of numbers. I want to start on Deuteronomy. So we're gonna go ahead and go to numbers thirty six, and I want at the very end, I'll try to have a couple of practical applications for numbers thirty six. Let's see, Oh, we got this little tiny portion. We're gonna finish this up. Let's go, baby, all right. Numbers thirty six marriage of

female heirs like heirs. Sorry, Now, the chief of the fathers of the families of the children of Gilia, the son of Makhar, the son of Manassa, of the families of the sons of Joseph, come near and spoke before Moses and before the leaders the chief the fathers of the children of Israel. And they said, the Lord commanded my Lord Moses to give the land as an inheritance by lot to the children of Israel. And my lord

was commanded by the Lord. And my lord was commanded by the Lord to give inheritance of my brother Zephiad to his daughters. Oh, remember that we talked about that before. Now, if they are married to any of the sons of other tribes of the children Miseral, then their inheritance will be taken from their from the inheritance of their fathers, and it will be added to the inheritance of the tribe to which they marry. So it'll be taken from

the lot of inheritance. And when the jubilee of the children of Israel comes, then the inheritance will be added to the inheritance of the tribe into which they marry, so the inheritance will be taken away from the inheritance of the tribes of our fathers. Then Moses commanded the children of Israel according to the word of the Lord, saying, what the tribe of the sons of Joseph speaks is right. This is what the Lord commands. Concerning that the daughters

of zeph Zelafad, we already talked about this before. So the Lord promised them this okay, saying, let them marry whom they think best, but they may marry only within the family of their father's tribe. So the inheritance of the children of Israel shall not change hands from the

tribe to tribe. For every one of the children of Visuel shall keep the inheritance of the tribe of his father's and every daughter who possessed an inheritance in any tribe of the children of Israel shall be the wife of one of the family of her father's tribe, so that the children of Israel may possess the inheritance of his fathers. Thus, no inheritance shall change hands from one tribe to another. Every tribe of the children of Israel

shall keep its own inheritance. Just as the Lord commanded Moses, so did the daughters Zelophad from Malah, Zah, Hoglaw, Milkaw, and Noah. Their daughters of Zilapad were married to the sons of their father's brothers. They were married into the families of the children of Manassa, the son of Joseph, and their inheritance remained in the tribe of their father's family. These are the commandments and the judgments with the Lord commanded the children of Israel by the hand of Moses

in the plains of Moab, by the Jordan across from Jericho. Wow, praise God, we finished the book of Numbers. That is phenomenal. Time hair has flown. This is episode thirty already of the Old Testament. I can't even believe it. Okay, So we'll go over some teaching points. We got about five minutes, you know, before it's two hours. The context of inheritance. Number thirty six addressed the issue of an inheritance for

the daughters of Zelophad, who had no brothers. This situation raised concerned about the land inheritance within the tribes of Israel God's command. The Lord instructed Moses that the daughters could marry anyone they wish, provided they married within their father's tribal clan, ensuring that the inheritance would not transfer between tribes. Obedience to God's law. The daughters of Zelophad obeyed the Lord's command, marrying within their tribe, demonstrating their

commitment to God's instructions. That's right perseverance of tribal inheritance. The chapter emphasized the importance of maintaining the tribal boundaries and inheritance as initially allotted by God, reflecting his order and provision for his people. And then we have a practical application trust in God's justice. Just as God provided a fair solution for the daughters of Zelopad, we can trust in His ways are just and equitable in our

lives obedience to God's commands. The daughter's obedience serves as a model just for us to follow God's instructions even when they challenge the social norms or personal desires. Value of community in heritage. This persuasion of chapel heriture reminds us of the value of our spiritual heritage and community ensuring that we contribute to is continually strength. All right, cool, we're done with that. Let me just go ahead and stop sharing screen if you're watching on video. What a

great study. Thank you guys for sticking with me all the way to the end. If you stuck around to the end of this Bible study, I want you to comment on Spotify and say made it to the end, all right, and I will shout you out on the next Wednesday service if I as long as I record it in time for this to come out, I will definitely do so. And as you can tell, I, you know, I got something going on again with my throat, so just pray for me if you can, just pray for me.

Thank you so much for this beautiful time spending with everybody that's listening, and thank you for providing me with

this platform to be able to teach. I can't even believe Lord that we're already you know, through the Book of Numbers already and starting Deuteronomy. So I will remain faithful to you, obedient to you, and I will teach your word as best as possible. Lord, So if you could lead me to a great teacher that teaches the book of Deuteronomy, so I can make sure that I have some good study points and some great things for the audience that's listening. Lord, and we will give all

glory to you for everything that we have. Lord, everything we have, and we appreciate you sending your son to die on the cross for our sins. Help us to be obedient to your word and help us to live out your will. Lord, and anybody that has any of us that's in bondage like the like the Israelites were in Egypt, please release the bondage. Please break the chains. Do not allow the devil to have any kind of

strongholds on anybody that's listening to the show right now. Lord, break the chains and help them to get out of bondage. And we do not want to be separate from you, Lord, We want to be close to you. So help us to not sin and assist us to not sin against you. We want to stay close to you. We want to be under your wing. Lord. Please, like the Bible says, thank you for everything you do for us. And I

don't mean a literal wing. I'm not saying you have wings. Lord, just keep us close by to you, hold us close, love on us, and assist us to be obedient. Thank you for everything you do for us.
