Day 29
Numbers 25 - 28
Bible Time Period: Desert Wanderings
You taught Israel to walk in faith through 40 years’ wandering in the desert: Help me to trust in you today, O God.
Reflection
A second census is taken as the people prepare to enter the Promised land and divide it among the tribes. The twelve tribes do not exactly correspond to the 12 sons of Jacob/Israel: Instead of a single tribe of Joseph, there are two tribes named after his two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh. The tribe of Levi has no allotment of the land. Instead, they will be given cities in every tribe so they can perform their duties among all the tribes of Israel.
