Numbers chapter 25  Israel worships Baal of Peor, Israelites was died in the Plague Numbered 24,000.

            While Israel was staying in Shittim, the men begain to indulge in sexual immorality with Moabite women, and joined in worshiping the Baal of Peor. “Shittim” (v.1) was the last stop before Israel crossed the Jordan(Josh.2:1). Apparently Ballam advised this (31:16) in order to compromise Israel, whom he could not curse (Rev.2:14). Baal of Peor (v.3), the local, heathen god Baal that was worshiped at Peor. Prostitution was part of that worship. The Lord sent plague against the Israelites. The Israelite leaders of the Baal worship were to be publicly executed. Phinehas, son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, took a spear in his hand and and drove the spear through both of them (Israelite and into the woman’s body) because of his hatred of sin (vv.7-8), Phinehas’ family was promised the high priesthood in Israel.then the plague against the Israelites was stopped, but those who died in the plague numbered 24,000. The Lord said to Moses, “Treat the Midianites as enemies and kill them. for they treated Moses as enemies.

Chapter 26 The New Generation Numbered

            In comparing this census with the one taken thirty-eight years earlier, we note the following: Reuben had decreased by 2770 (v.7;1:21), Simeon had lost 37,100 (v.14; 1:23), Gad had decreased by 5,150(v.18;1:25), Judah had gained 1,900(v.22;1:27), Issachar had gained 9,900 (v.25;1:29),Zebulun had gained 3,100(v.27;1:31), Manasseh had gained 20,500(v.34;1:35), Ephraim had lost 8,000 (v.37;1:33), Benjamin had increased by 10,200(v.41;1:37),Dan had gained 1,700 (v.43;1:39) Asher had gained 11,900 (v.47;1:41), and Naphtali had decreased by 8,000(v.50;1:43). The total nuber of adult males had decreased by 1,820(v.51;1:46), and during the years of wandering 1,200,000 people had died. This census furnished the basis for dividing the land, each tribe receiving more or less land, depending on its size. The actural location was decided by lot.

 Chapter 27 The People Instructed, The Laws of Inheritance; The Appointment of Joshua.

            The question brought to Moses was this What would happen to the property of a man who died for his own sin (i.e., he shared the general sin of those who balked at Kadesh) without sons? (v.3). Moses announced a new law of inheritance whereby a daughter could inherit. Abarim (v.12). The range of mountains overlooking (from the east) the Jordon valley and the Dead Sea. The Lord said to Moses to take Joshua, son of Nun a man in whom is spirit, lay his hand on him and gave him some authority in the presence of entire assembly and commission him.(vv.18-21). God’s will for Joshua was discovered through the use of the Urim, rather than directly, as in the case of Moses (Ex.28:30).

Chapter 28 The Order of Offerings and Festivals

            The regulations concerning sacrifices and festivals are stated again in Chapters 28-29, just before Israel entered the land of Canaan. Verses 3-8 these verses describe the daily offerings (Ex.29:38 and Lev.6:19) at twelinght (v.4). Lit., between the evenings (Ex.12:6). On the Sabbath, special offerings were made in addition to the daily ones. (vv.9-10). At the beginning of each month, a substantial burnt offering plus grain, drink, and sin offerings were made. The trumpets were also blown(10:10; vv.11-15). For the Feast of Unleavened Bread, (Ex.12:15). Substantial offerings were brought each day for seven days (vv.19-24). On the day of firstfruits.(v.26) fifity days after the Feast of Unleavened Bread or on the day of Pentecost (Lev.23:15).

Chapter 29 The Feast of Trumpets; the Day of Atonement

            On the first day of the seventh month hold a sacred assembly and do no regular work. it is a day for you to sound the trumpets. (v.1-6; Lev.23:24). On the tenth day of this seventh month hold a sacred assembly. You must deny yourselves and do no work. Present as an aroma pleasing ot the Lord a burnt offering of one young bull, one ram and seven male lambs a year old all without defect.(vv.7-11) For the Day of Atonement (Lev.16). For the Feast of Tabernalces, or Booths, (Lev.23:34). Except for Passover and the Day of Atonement, these festivals were happy occasions for the people.(vv.12-38). Private offerings (vow and freewill) were made in addition othe ones presecribed for the festivals. (v.39).

 Chapter 30 The Law for Marital Relationship Vows.

            A man was unconditionally bound by any vow he made.(v.2) A vow made by a woman could be invalidated by her father(in the case of an unmarried daughter) or by her husband( in the case of a wife). A widow or divorced woman was responsible for her own vows.(v.9). If a husband invalidated his wife’s vow some time later, he was held responsible.

 

Old Testament (NIV) Chapter 25 Moab Seduces Israel

25:1 While Israel was staying in Shittim, the men began to indulge in sexual immorality with Moabite women,

25:2 who invited them to the sacrifices to their gods. The people ate and bowed down before these gods.

25:3 So Israel joined in worshiping the Baal of Peor. And the LORD'S anger burned against them.

25:4 The LORD said to Moses, "Take all the leaders of these people, kill them and expose them in broad daylight before the LORD, so that the LORD'S fierce anger may turn away from Israel."

25:5 So Moses said to Israel's judges, "Each of you must put to death those of your men who have joined in worshiping the Baal of Peor."

25:6 Then an Israelite man brought to his family a Midianite woman right before the eyes of Moses and the whole assembly of Israel while they were weeping at the entrance to the Tent of Meeting.

25:7 When Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest, saw this, he left the assembly, took a spear in his hand

25:8 and followed the Israelite into the tent. He drove the spear through both of them--through the Israelite and into the woman's body. Then the plague against the Israelites was stopped;

25:9 but those who died in the plague numbered 24,000.

25:10 The LORD said to Moses,

25:11 "Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest, has turned my anger away from the Israelites; for he was as zealous as I am for my honor among them, so that in my zeal I did not put an end to them.

25:12 Therefore tell him I am making my covenant of peace with him.

25:13 He and his descendants will have a covenant of a lasting priesthood, because he was zealous for the honor of his God and made atonement for the Israelites."

25:14 The name of the Israelite who was killed with the Midianite woman was Zimri son of Salu, the leader of a Simeonite family.

25:15 And the name of the Midianite woman who was put to death was Cozbi daughter of Zur, a tribal chief of a Midianite family.

25:16 The LORD said to Moses,

25:17 "Treat the Midianites as enemies and kill them,

25:18 because they treated you as enemies when they deceived you in the affair of Peor and their sister Cozbi, the daughter of a Midianite leader, the woman who was killed when the plague came as a result of Peor."

 

Chapter 26 The Second Census

26:1 After the plague the LORD said to Moses and Eleazar son of Aaron, the priest,

26:2 "Take a census of the whole Israelite community by families--all those twenty years old or more who are able to serve in the army of Israel."

26:3 So on the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho, Moses and Eleazar the priest spoke with them and said,

26:4 "Take a census of the men twenty years old or more, as the LORD commanded Moses." These were the Israelites who came out of Egypt:

26:5 The descendants of Reuben, the firstborn son of Israel, were: through Hanoch, the Hanochite clan; through Pallu, the Palluite clan;

26:6 through Hezron, the Hezronite clan; through Carmi, the Carmite clan.

26:7 These were the clans of Reuben; those numbered were 43,730.

26:8 The son of Pallu was Eliab,

26:9 and the sons of Eliab were Nemuel, Dathan and Abiram. The same Dathan and Abiram were the community officials who rebelled against Moses and Aaron and were among Korah's followers when they rebelled against the LORD.

26:10 The earth opened its mouth and swallowed them along with Korah, whose followers died when the fire devoured the 250 men. And they served as a warning sign.

26:11 The line of Korah, however, did not die out.

26:12 The descendants of Simeon by their clans were: through Nemuel, the Nemuelite clan; through Jamin, the Jaminite clan; through Jakin, the Jakinite clan;

26:26 The descendants of Zebulun by their clans were: through Sered, the Seredite clan; through Elon, the Elonite clan; through Jahleel, the Jahleelite clan.

26:27 These were the clans of Zebulun; those numbered were 60,500.

26:28 The descendants of Joseph by their clans through Manasseh and Ephraim were:

26:29 The descendants of Manasseh: through Makir, the Makirite clan (Makir was the father of Gilead); through Gilead, the Gileadite clan.

26:30 These were the descendants of Gilead: through Iezer, the Iezerite clan; through Helek, the Helekite clan;

26:31 through Asriel, the Asrielite clan; through Shechem, the Shechemite clan;

26:32 through Shemida, the Shemidaite clan; through Hepher, the Hepherite clan.

26:33 (Zelophehad son of Hepher had no sons; he had only daughters, whose names were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah and Tirzah.)

26:34 These were the clans of Manasseh; those numbered were 52,700.

26:35 These were the descendants of Ephraim by their clans: through Shuthelah, the Shuthelahite clan; through Beker, the Bekerite clan; through Tahan, the Tahanite clan.

26:36 These were the descendants of Shuthelah: through Eran, the Eranite clan.

26:37 These were the clans of Ephraim; those numbered were 32,500. These were the descendants of Joseph by their clans.

26:38 The descendants of Benjamin by their clans were: through Bela, the Belaite clan; through Ashbel, the Ashbelite clan; through Ahiram, the Ahiramite clan;

26:39 through Shupham, the Shuphamite clan; through Hupham, the Huphamite clan.

26:40 The descendants of Bela through Ard and Naaman were: through Ard, the Ardite clan; through Naaman, the Naamite clan.

26:41 These were the clans of Benjamin; those numbered were 45,600.

26:42 These were the descendants of Dan by their clans: through Shuham, the Shuhamite clan. These were the clans of Dan:

26:43 All of them were Shuhamite clans; and those numbered were 64,400.

26:44 The descendants of Asher by their clans were: through Imnah, the Imnite clan; through Ishvi, the Ishvite clan; through Beriah, the Beriite clan;

26:45 and through the descendants of Beriah: through Heber, the Heberite clan; through Malkiel, the Malkielite clan.

26:46 (Asher had a daughter named Serah.)

26:47 These were the clans of Asher; those numbered were 53,400.

26:48 The descendants of Naphtali by their clans were: through Jahzeel, the Jahzeelite clan; through Guni, the Gunite clan;

26:49 through Jezer, the Jezerite clan; through Shillem, the Shillemite clan.

26:50 These were the clans of Naphtali; those numbered were 45,400.

26:51 The total number of the men of Israel was 601,730.

26:52 The LORD said to Moses,

26:53 "The land is to be allotted to them as an inheritance based on the number of names.

26:54 To a larger group give a larger inheritance, and to a smaller group a smaller one; each is to receive its inheritance according to the number of those listed.

26:55 Be sure that the land is distributed by lot. What each group inherits will be according to the names for its ancestral tribe.

26:56 Each inheritance is to be distributed by lot among the larger and smaller groups."

26:57 These were the Levites who were counted by their clans: through Gershon, the Gershonite clan; through Kohath, the Kohathite clan; through Merari, the Merarite clan.

26:58 These also were Levite clans: the Libnite clan, the Hebronite clan, the Mahlite clan, the Mushite clan, the Korahite clan. (Kohath was the forefather of Amram;

26:59 the name of Amram's wife was Jochebed, a descendant of Levi, who was born to the Levites in Egypt. To Amram she bore Aaron, Moses and their sister Miriam.

26:60 Aaron was the father of Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.

26:61 But Nadab and Abihu died when they made an offering before the LORD with unauthorized fire.)

26:62 All the male Levites a month old or more numbered 23,000. They were not counted along with the other Israelites because they received no inheritance among them.

26:63 These are the ones counted by Moses and Eleazar the priest when they counted the Israelites on the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho.

26:64 Not one of them was among those counted by Moses and Aaron the priest when they counted the Israelites in the Desert of Sinai.

26:65 For the LORD had told those Israelites they would surely die in the desert, and not one of them was left except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.

 

Chapter 27 Zelophehad’s Daughters

27:1 The daughters of Zelophehad son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Makir, the son of Manasseh, belonged to the clans of Manasseh son of Joseph. The names of the daughters were Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah and Tirzah. They approached

27:2 the entrance to the Tent of Meeting and stood before Moses, Eleazar the priest, the leaders and the whole assembly, and said,

27:3 "Our father died in the desert. He was not among Korah's followers, who banded together against the LORD, but he died for his own sin and left no sons.

27:4 Why should our father's name disappear from his clan because he had no son? Give us property among our father's relatives."

27:5 So Moses brought their case before the LORD

27:6 and the LORD said to him,

27:7 "What Zelophehad's daughters are saying is right. You must certainly give them property as an inheritance among their father's relatives and turn their father's inheritance over to them.

27:8 "Say to the Israelites, 'If a man dies and leaves no son, turn his inheritance over to his daughter.

27:9 If he has no daughter, give his inheritance to his brothers.

27:10 If he has no brothers, give his inheritance to his father's brothers.

27:11 If his father had no brothers, give his inheritance to the nearest relative in his clan, that he may possess it. This is to be a legal requirement for the Israelites, as the LORD commanded Moses.'"

Joshua to Succeed Moses

27:12 Then the LORD said to Moses, "Go up this mountain in the Abarim range and see the land I have given the Israelites.

27:13 After you have seen it, you too will be gathered to your people, as your brother Aaron was,

27:14 for when the community rebelled at the waters in the Desert of Zin, both of you disobeyed my command to honor me as holy before their eyes." (These were the waters of Meribah Kadesh, in the Desert of Zin.)

27:15 Moses said to the LORD,

27:16 "May the LORD, the God of the spirits of all mankind, appoint a man over this community

27:17 to go out and come in before them, one who will lead them out and bring them in, so the LORD'S people will not be like sheep without a shepherd."

27:18 So the LORD said to Moses, "Take Joshua son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and lay your hand on him.

27:19 Have him stand before Eleazar the priest and the entire assembly and commission him in their presence.

27:20 Give him some of your authority so the whole Israelite community will obey him.

27:21 He is to stand before Eleazar the priest, who will obtain decisions for him by inquiring of the Urim before the LORD. At his command he and the entire community of the Israelites will go out, and at his command they will come in."

27:22 Moses did as the LORD commanded him. He took Joshua and had him stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole assembly.

27:23 Then he laid his hands on him and commissioned him, as the LORD instructed through Moses.

 

Chapter 28 Daily Offerings

28:1 The LORD said to Moses,

28:2 "Give this command to the Israelites and say to them: 'See that you present to me at the appointed time the food for my offerings made by fire, as an aroma pleasing to me.'

28:3 Say to them: 'This is the offering made by fire that you are to present to the LORD: two lambs a year old without defect, as a regular burnt offering each day.

28:4 Prepare one lamb in the morning and the other at twilight,

28:5 together with a grain offering of a tenth of an ephah of fine flour mixed with a quarter of a hin of oil from pressed olives.

Chapter 30 Marital Relationship Vows

30:1 Moses said to the heads of the tribes of Israel: "This is what the LORD commands:

30:2 When a man makes a vow to the LORD or takes an oath to obligate himself by a pledge, he must not break his word but must do everything he said.

30:3 "When a young woman still living in her father's house makes a vow to the LORD or obligates herself by a pledge

30:4 and her father hears about her vow or pledge but says nothing to her, then all her vows and every pledge by which she obligated herself will stand.

30:5 But if her father forbids her when he hears about it, none of her vows or the pledges by which she obligated herself will stand; the LORD will release her because her father has forbidden her.

30:6 "If she marries after she makes a vow or after her lips utter a rash promise by which she obligates herself

30:7 and her husband hears about it but says nothing to her, then her vows or the pledges by which she obligated herself will stand.

30:8 But if her husband forbids her when he hears about it, he nullifies the vow that obligates her or the rash promise by which she obligates herself, and the LORD will release her.

30:9 "Any vow or obligation taken by a widow or divorced woman will be binding on her.

30:10 "If a woman living with her husband makes a vow or obligates herself by a pledge under oath

30:11 and her husband hears about it but says nothing to her and does not forbid her, then all her vows or the pledges by which she obligated herself will stand.

30:12 But if her husband nullifies them when he hears about them, then none of the vows or pledges that came from her lips will stand. Her husband has nullified them, and the LORD will release her.

30:13 Her husband may confirm or nullify any vow she makes or any sworn pledge to deny herself.

30:14 But if her husband says nothing to her about it from day to day, then he confirms all her vows or the pledges binding on her. He confirms them by saying nothing to her when he hears about them.

30:15 If, however, he nullifies them some time after he hears about them, then he is responsible for her guilt."

30:16 These are the regulations the LORD gave Moses concerning relationships between a man and his wife, and between a father and his young daughter still living in his house.
