Rebellion in the Wilderness (First Generation)

10

Therefore I brought them out from the land of Egypt, and brought them into the desert.

11

And I gave them my statutes, and I shewed them my judgments, which if a man do, he shall live in them.

12

Moreover I gave them also my sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them: and that they might know that I am the Lord that sanctify them.

13

But the house of Israel provoked me in the desert: they walked not in my statutes, and they cast away my judgments, which if a man do he shall live in them: and they grievously violated my sabbaths. I said therefore that I would pour out my indignation upon them in the desert, and would consume them.

14

But I spared them for the sake of my name, lest it should be profaned before the nations, from which I brought them out, in their sight.

15

So I lifted up my hand over them in the desert, not to bring them into the land which I had given them flowing with milk and honey, the best of all lands.

16

Because they cast off my judgments, and walked not in my statutes, and violated my sabbaths: for their heart went after idols.

17

Yet my eye spared them, so that I destroyed them not: neither did I consume them in the desert.
