For forty years the Children of Israel wandered in the wilderness until an entire generation of Israelites died because they angered YeHoVaH and He swore an oath to Himself in His wrath. On the verge of crossing over the Jordan to take possession of the Land of Promise, a new generation of Israelites are about to commit the same sins of their fathers.

Moses’ Prayer Denied
March 7, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • Deuteronomy 3
Moses, the deliverer and Prophet of God to Israel, performed great signs and wonders. His leadership of YeHoVaH’s armies struck terror into the hearts of nations. Moses, whom YeHoVaH spoke to face to face, on several occasions prayed to God on Israel’s behalf and prevented YeHoVaH from destroying Israel because of their rebellion. After forty years of wandering in the vast wilderness and waging war with the armies of kings and nations on their way to the Land of Promise, that which Moses wanted from YeHoVaH, more than anything else, was denied.
Tribal Land & Marriage
February 8, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • Numbers 36
The land promised to the Tribes of Israel had specific Instructions concerning its borders for each individual tribe. An issue arose amongst a tribal member of Manasseh, a son of Joseph, concerning a man who had no sons and only daughters. The issue was about what would happen to his inheritance in the Promised Land. Upon receiving Instructions from YeHoVaH and giving them to the tribal leaders, another issue arose about marriage and the Tribal Land that will be addressed in this study.
Land of the Levites
February 1, 2024 • Arthur Bailey • Numbers 35
In the previous Chapter, YeHoVaH instructed Moses to “Command the Israelites and say to them: When you enter Canaan, the land that will be allotted to you as an inheritance will have these boundaries:'' Twelve Tribes were allotted land as an inheritance per YeHoVaH’s Instructions. Levi, the thirteenth Tribe was not given Tribal Land, but instead was given land within the twelve Tribal Lands. This study will address the Land of the Levites.
