Numbers 14:8 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 14:8

If the Lord delight in us
Continue to delight in them as he had, and as appears by what he had done for, them in Egypt, at the Red sea, and in the wilderness; see ( Deuteronomy 10:15 ) ;

then he will bring us into this land, and give it us,
as he has promised,

a land which floweth with milk and honey;
as the Lord himself hath described it, and as the unbelieving spies themselves had owned it; ( Numbers 13:27 ) .

Numbers 14:8 In-Context

6 But Joshua, Nun's son, and Caleb, Jephunneh's son, from those who had explored the land, tore their clothes

7 and said to the entire Israelite community, "The land we crossed through to explore is an exceptionally good land.

8 If the LORD is pleased with us, he'll bring us into this land and give it to us. It's a land that's full of milk and honey.

9 Only don't rebel against the LORD and don't be afraid of the people of the land. They are our prey. Their defense has deserted them, but the LORD is with us. So don't be afraid of them."
