BRAGADAYJAH 428


BRAGADAYJAH 428

The Rebellious Unbelief of Israel.
Upon hearing the reports of giants, the people of the congregation of Israel began to cry and lament and spent the whole night in weeping.  And as was their wont, they murmured against Moses and Aaron and in their complaint said that they wished to God they had died in the land of Egypt, or while they were in the wilderness.
Of course their murmurings were also directed against the Lord their God when they asked why the Lord had brought them to this land in the first place to die by the sword so that their wives and children should fall prey unto the enemy. In addition they were not afraid to express the ultimate ingratitude by saying once again, that they were actually better off in Egypt.
And so they began to plot to make themselves a captain to lead them back to Egypt.
And when Moses and Aaron heard of the rebellion of the children of Israel they fell on their faces and wept, joined by Joshua, the son of Nun and Caleb one of those who had searched the land, and together they wept and tore their clothes in the presence of all the congregation of the people.
And they spoke unto all the company of the children of Israel and told them that the land is a very good land; it is a land flowing with milk and honey; therefore do not rebel against the Lord nor fear the people of the land; for they are bread for us; their defenses are already departed from them; therefore fear them not.

Notwithstanding, the children of Israel gathered unto themselves stones to stone Moses and Aaron and Joshua and Caleb; but the glory of the Lord appeared unto them.
