Numbers 17:11 In-Context

9 When Moses brought all the staffs out from the LORD ’s presence, he showed them to the people. Each man claimed his own staff.

10 And the LORD said to Moses: “Place Aaron’s staff permanently before the Ark of the Covenant to serve as a warning to rebels. This should put an end to their complaints against me and prevent any further deaths.”

11 So Moses did as the LORD commanded him.

12 Then the people of Israel said to Moses, “Look, we are doomed! We are dead! We are ruined!

13 Everyone who even comes close to the Tabernacle of the LORD dies. Are we all doomed to die?”
