கர்த்தருடைய சத்தத்திற்குக் கீழ்ப்படியாமற்போன எகிப்திலிருந்து புறப்பட்ட யுத்த புருஷரான யாவரும் மாளுமட்டும், இஸ்ரவேல் புத்திரர் நாற்பது வருஷம் வனாந்தரத்தில் நடந்து திரிந்தார்கள்; கர்த்தர் எங்களுக்குக் கொடுக்கும்படி அவர்கள் பிதாக்களுக்கு ஆணையிட்ட பாலும் தேனும் ஓடுகிற தேசத்தை அவர்கள் காண்பதில்லை என்று கர்த்தர் அவர்களுக்கு ஆணையிட்டிருந்தார்.
