Question 5

discuss 2 items under the dicipline of the covenant

Answer 5

A. Rebellion at Kadesh-Barnea–Throughout the book of Numbers the unfaithfulness of Israel is contrasted with the faithfulness of Yahweh. The people at Kadesh-Barnea send in 12 spies. The 10 spies said the land could not be taken; however, Caleb and Joshua said that it could. The people threatened to stone Moses, and God determined to destroy them. Moses interceded and God did not destroy them. Instead God drove them into the wilderness.

B. Retreat into the Wilderness–They were in the wilderness approx. 40 yrs., actually 38 yrs. (Exod. 12:2, 5; Num. 10-11f.; Deut. 1-2-3). In essence, the generation from Egypt died in the wilderness. Do not use the wilderness experience as an analogy to the Christian life when one is not allowing Christ to have control. This was not the message of the wilderness wanderings. If they would have remained faithful, they could have been in the promised land only after 11 days (Deut. 1:2). Only Joshua and Caleb survived the death march in the wilderness.

Question 12

Discuss problem surrounding canaanite religion

Answer 12

Baalis destroyed by Mot in battle. As a result the crops of the earth dry up since Baal is the god of fertility. Asherah kills Mot and Baal resurrects. Baal and his sister Asherah have sexual intercourse and the earth is made fertile. The Baal religion duplicated the sexual act as imitative magic believing that it would cause fertility to occur.The myth was a powerful temptation because of the success of the Canaanite farmers.The Israelites attempted to syncretizetheir worship of Yahweh and Baal. Yahweh knew about war, but not about growing crops. Yahweh was the shepherd God and the God of wanderers, like Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. This resulted in apostasy
