Instead of complaining, we should have contentment!
Scripture Pages that Link to Here
There are many examples in Exodus-Numbers, of the Israelites committing this sin, which are not listed below.
- The people complained about the food God had provided, and claimed that things were better in Egypt.
- This event is said to be an instance of "lusting" - a violation of the Tenth Commandment.
- More complaining! No water; no trust in God to provide.
- This is about 40 years after they left Egypt. After 40 years of God providing, they still didn't trust him!
- Results of discouragement - v. 4.
- Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loathes this light bread.
