Description
The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God’s Word. These 12-week studies lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four basic components: (1) reflection questions help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) “Gospel Glimpses” highlight the gospel of grace throughout the book; (3) “Whole-Bible Connections” show how any given passage connects to the Bible’s overarching story of redemption, culminating in Christ; and (4) “Theological Soundings” identify how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture. With contributions from an array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God’s grace on every page of the Bible. The book of Numbers follows God’s people as they prepare to enter the Promised Land. The story is one of waiting and wandering for forty years in the desert as the people suffer the consequences of their disobedience. Showing how the book of Numbers displays the steadfast commitment of God, Michael LeFebvre provides readers with rich insights and lessons from this account of the Israelites’ time of wandering in the wilderness.
