Bible Question: Why did God allow the Israelites to wander in the desert for 38 years? |
Bible Answer: After leaving Egypt, the Lord had condemned Israel to 40 years of wandering in Sinai as punishment for not entering Canaan as He had commanded them to do at Kadesh (Num. 14:33-34). The 40 years included the time spent at Sinai and on the journey to Kadesh as well as the next 38 years (Deut. 2:14). See also Deut. 1:3. NASB Study Bible Zondervan. |
